Am surprised CJS has not contacted KJ, have only seen good things about him.

We are all left to guess here but we do know that Coach Smith has seen KJ play/practice. Maybe he is focusing on all the options for the last signing period? Of all the coaches considering KJ... Coach Smith has the best intel, first hand experience so if he isn't offering yet I believe he has a plan/good reasons.
Not trying to dis KJ, I don't know him at all... but hoping that ol Smitty has another QB he is after with that Scholarship.

I don't think we are lacking in scholarships to give out, and taking on a "one-and-done" guy is totally different from a HS senior. That said, I'm not ready to start questioning Smith's QB choices.

Understood and I agree. I'm hoping Smith is talking to a JC or a High School Senior who can come and play next year. If so, hard to sell KJ that he will play during the one year he has left. And yes we need a backup, hoping that is Luton or one of the other guys in the stable who play even better after being coached up by the new staff. But just reading the tea leaves here.... no facts to support my dreams My point was we have the advantage on evaluating KJ... so if we are not offering it is because Smith sees somebody better he is working on. Time will tell.

JS will not talk, officially, to a current player who still prepping with his team for a bowl game. And, reportedly KJ wants to play outside the Pac12... his 1st choice anyway.

Good point, CJS had a lot of respect for CP and would want to avoid a distraction for their bowl preparations. For the record, I trust CJS either direction he goes with KJ. I just wanted to share some information.

Another speculative One and done transfer is not the long term answer, and most likely not a short term answer either... Even Luton had more of a success track record as a college QB than KJ. I would rather spend next year, which is likely to not see many wins anyways, developing a group of QBs who might be around for a few years. I am still smarting over the loss of Petras.... We definitely need another QB recruit in this class, but I hope it is either a transfer with a minimum of 2 years to play or another High Schooler...

It's an NCAA violation for a coach to recruit a player who is enrolled at a D1 school. That's not to say that they can't have contact, but it must be initiated by the player until he is again a recruitable athlete (ie, has obtained his release and is no longer enrolled at the University with which he signed a Letter of Intent or was awarded an Athletic Scholarship).
