Would you slow roll the announcement because of the affect it might have on King and Johnson transferring and destroying our QB depth?

Of course.

But Jimbo ain't doing that. Conner hasn't run with anybody but the 3's all camp.

If I was going to announce a freshman as a starter, I would be slow to announce it because I would want to see more reps and practices before deciding to go with a frosh QB.

All camp? We were told they were getting equal reps earlier. What's your source?

Maybe it has happened but I don't know of any players who have transferred this close to the start of the season. Wouldn't that limit your transfer options to only jucos?

At this point I would give them all similar hair cuts, remove the name on the back of their jerseys, put visors on their helmets, keep their helmets always on, and hide their identities all year. You know, keep people guessing.

No one is transferring this time of hte season cause they are not able to go anywhere and enroll in school and play any reasonable snaps this season -- just doesnt happen.

The amount of fear that people have about quitting is astonishing. Quitting is nature's way of right sizing the team.

If Weigman is our starter then something catastrophic happened and our season is a bust....again

Dan Marino
Payton Manning
Tua Tagalova (sp?)
RG III
Tyrell Pryor
Phillip Rivers
Jake Fromm
Jalen Hurts

Misses Manziel and J Winston but includes ol Cart... I can still hear Brent Mussberger "Well folks there is another connection between the roommates"... Did you know Jordan Shipley and Cart were roomies??? Sip troll

I intentionally left out redshirt freshmen as that is not CW

Johnson should be the starter. Conner W might be ready later in season. I also hope I'm wrong about King. Jimbo knows way more than me about QB's. I trust his judgment.

Yes, of course it is, that's what I'm saying. If CW beats out Johnson and King, why are we assuming its going to be a bust season and not that CW could be the next Dan Marino? I actually think we should be excited if he beat those two out because it would mean he's likely to be the next great.

I remember hearing they got equal reps for the first week or so, but since then it's been the olds

I've said this a 1,000 times. It was extremely clear Jimbo was very high on King during last year's offseason and fall camp. You could tell by the glowing comments that he was blown away by his potential. Would have been very surprised if he didn't surface first this year.

Haynes throws too many interceptions, that is true in his limited snaps that we have seen, it was true in the spring game, and it has been reportedly the case in training camp this last few weeks. Max Johnson is going to be the guy (if not right away then eventually)

"Limited snaps that we have seen" are the operative words here...

Some of the bias is absurd. If CW is that good that Jimbo feels confident to name him the starter I'm going to be pretty pumped about the potential and future because that must mean he's pretty damn good.

The post about running with the 3's all camp...so you saying CW is a liar because he himself in his stacked interviews said he's had reps with the 1's. Why would he make that up?

I don't think he will be named the starter but some of these opinions lack much logic.

I can only go off the information I have, but don't act like the Kent State game is the only evidence we have on the guy...he throws picks in practice all the time (at least according to reports which again is all I can go off of right now)

No, I would even suggest going by only Kent St would be very misleading. I think we're also shuffling similar information and drawing our own conclusions. We'll see when we see. My goal is not to be right or wrong, but rather support the choice that is made and hope it's the right one.

Hard to imagine JFF would not have been very good as a true fish…
Coaches didn't know how good he was when he won the job. I expect he would have been very good the previous year as well.

No, because I don't think Jimbo is that type of coach to be dishonest with players as to where they stand. That said, I think there's a pretty low chance Weigman is the starter.

15 out of the 1000s of QBs over multiple decades. Love those odds.

heard through some unlikely sources: King is going to be named the starter, but Jimbo is blown away by Weigman and knows he is the real deal.

What it would take to give him a start this season? I have no idea.

there have NOT been "1000s " of true freshmen quarterbacks leading major college programs.

there have not even been 100s.

Reported by who? The false scrimmage info?

Kings interceptions werent reported as any higher than Johnson. None of us have that public information

So do Johnson and weigman

You do know practice is scripted, often times situational where the defense knows the play, right? King did not throw any more picks in the scrimmages this fall by anything I've read

Manning was starter because Colquitt and Helton for injured during season.
