CW had the highest QBR in the country last week and was also leading the country in QBR when he got hurt last year. I know some of you expect every Aggie QB to be JFF but I swear if some of you saw Jesus walk on water right infront of you you'd say you expected more.

There is a reason Elko is coaching and no one on this board is. Goodness gracious. Hell, there's a reason position coaches at JUCOs are coaching. ahead of people on this board who think they know better.
You could switch out Elko's name for Fran/Sherman/Sumlin/Fisher in that sentence and it would all sound the same. For whatever reason we can't get the QB position figured out correctly with the exception of a few and there have been so many QB1s and QB2s since Fran
Our coaches seem to hold on to QBs that are either QB2s or can't develop them. We have also had coaches that can't manage the QB locker room properly
For the love of all things Holy, they're getting millions of dollars and they have all had some very talented QBs to work with
How hard is it to get this right?
For the millionth time
Start Reed, keep Reed as the starter. He has the highest ceiling. He's the youngest QB we have. Get him the reps, and experience!
Maybe the dumbest take in this thread.

Might be the dumbest take on TexAgs, actually.
This dude, poppin his self-proclaimed sativa's and playing armchair coach....all of a sudden has more coaching credibility and football acumen than current staff? And apparently every staff prior? Based on the few snaps he's seen CW take on TV thus far?
As compared to a group of highly sought after coaches, that have seen each player thru 1000's of snaps? And every thrown ball, every tape session, every QB meeting, and every player's dimeanor when they're around?
I don't know that CW is gonna be the legend everyone's expecting....probably won't....but in terms of whether he should be QB1 or not right now, given the rest of what's in that room....i'm gonna go with current staff and their decision, 100x out of 100.
And yeah, it's possible Elko isn't taking us to the promised land....odds and %'s say he probably won't....but still, in terms of whether CW should be QB1 right now, the staff is gonna know best.
And the armchair coaches need to stick to their armchairs....complete with their big bag of Cheetos, sitting shirtless in their tighty-whiteys, just 1 game away from another Natty in video game football on their Playstation 2.

Get out of here with that BS. There are a lot of things that are a crime in Texas. Underage drinking for one. Maybe we should just have the team disbanded.Bryanisbest said:
If Mike Elko and/or members of his staff are aware that Aggie players are smoking MJ regularly he should be fired immediately. Recreational use of marijuana is a crime in Texas.

Why not Henderson? He was better than Reed last year.

Ha ha, I got into the Whistle Pig. Back porch, belly full, and watching HS football recap.
I don't know how good we are. I also don't know if we are that bad. All I am saying is, we control our destiny.

Mrs. Weigman,
Last week he played a glorified high school varsity team.
The week before he played a sort of good college team and couldn't throw a flat route to the RB

Since you can't read, again, "also was leading the country in QBR when he got hurt last year". Conveniently ignored that part.
Our fanbase will always want QB2 in the game until we find the next Johnny. Good luck.
Saving your #2 while starting your #3 but anticipating his forthcoming demise is classic A&M football strategy.Quote:
We're saving him for after Reed gets hurt

Per ESiPN: Upper body injury. Limited all week in practice. True game-time decision. Reed would start.

The fact this thread hasn't been nuked suggests this isn't as big an injury as some people think. If it were a season ender this thing wouldn't have made it to page 2.

If the marijuana addiction is outrageously false, where are the strong denials that should be coming out.

Where are the insiders coming out to rebut this slander?
Why is no one coming out to confirm his being listed as "questionable" is due to a specifically identifiable injury or condition? Yes, they may be trying to hide the reason from Florida. Or do they not want the A&M fans to know what is really going on.
I wouldn't look too much into it, most of the guys you see play smoke regularly and it doesn't really affect them.
They are not quarterbacks who thrive on precision decision making .
PS you have it "on great authority"" that WHO does what??

Asked how many NFL players currently smoke pot, Britton estimates "it's over 50 percent and it could be as high as 75 percent." A sports agent who asked to remain anonymous says, "The number is rumored to be as high as 80 percent."
There's a growing movement among former and current NFL players calling for the league to lift its ban on marijuana. As the pro-football season wraps up Week 2, 18 athletes are sidelined for unspecified substance-abuse violations, which, says sports agent Brian Fettner, who represents a roster of NFL players, "is almost always marijuana."

Well, the answer would have been a resounding "yes" in the case of Percy Harvin.
The former NFL wide receiver revealed in a recent podcast with Bleacher Report's Master Tesfatsion that he smoked weed before every game he played in the league. According to Harvin, the marijuana helped combat his anxiety disorder.
