Former Wake Forest and current Oregon WR Tabari Hines had some interesting comments regarding his new quarterback while comparing it to his former one.
Wake Forest grad transfer @TabariHines on playing with Justin Herbert: "I’ve never been able to play with a quarterback of his caliber. He makes throws that I wouldn’t call risky, but are NFL type throws. It’s amazed me. It makes my job easier."

While Herbert may have a better chance at making it as a pro NFL prospect, the type of quote seemed to draw the ire of some Wake Forest fans, who were quick to point out the stats argument (Wolford had 29 TD’s in 2017 alone while Herbert has thrown for 34 TD’s in his two-year career).
