Matt Grothe Out for Season

South Florida senior quarterback Matt Grothe will miss the rest of the season after tearing the ACL in his left knee in Saturday's 59-0 win over Charleston Southern.
Full Story

My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

They have an excellent QB named B.J. Daniels as a backup who has already thrown for a couple TD's and rushed for some as well. He's supposedly like USF's future Tebow.

I guess the future is now! Sorry to Grothe and good luck to Daniels. Our future (next year) sure ain't Van Camp. Let's get some game experience for someone else or we are gonna be REAL SORRY next year!

Could this help Rusty in regard to this year's NFL draft? Grothe wasn't really prejected to get drafted. So just curious to see what others think about it.

I don't think so. I'm not sure who would take Grother, there are quarterbacks out there who are faster and have a better arm than Grothe. Maybe he'll get signed as a free agent, but I doubt it. And now I don't really believe Rusty will get drafted, I hope I'm wrong but I don't see it happening considering how he has never played well in BCS games except for three. (USF, UF, 1st half of USC)

This mock site has Rusty going in the fifth round to Cleveland, but no mention of Grothe…

And they also don't even have Sam Bradford listed:

JVC may not be at Rusty's level but he'll win us games. He moved the ball against Florida and Nebraska, remember. Let's see how he does in the 2nd quarter against the SBC this season.

I don't think Grothe had a real shot of getting drafted, but thats just my opinion.  I'm not too sure about Rusty either.  But it does stink for USF.  I never like to see a star player get hurt, and Grothe was their man.  I was really looking forward to seeing him play a tough game in Tallahassee this weekend, but it looks like I'm drivin up for a blowout now.  Hopefully he recovers and gets back to playing next season (I think he has another year left.), and Hopefully they're backup QB can step up.  I was planning on hitting a few of the Bulls games this year.
