Casey Thompson back in the portal

He transferred before that. We would have won 8 games with a healthy Casey.
  • I have heard this on the radio
  • I have heard it in here
  • I have heard this from peers
Please explain this 8 games theory?

Let me preface that I personally believe that a competent QB would of got us to 10 minimum

- Minnesota - 1W (Last minute TO)
- Colorado - 1L (Although our QB turnovers were 100% the reason for the Colorado takeover in the 2nd half)
- Northern Illinois - 2W
- Louisiana Tech - 3W
- Michigan - 2L (Only guaranteed Loss)
- Illinois - 4W
- Northwestern - 5W
- Purdue - 6W
- Michigan State - 7W (Stalled offense all game)
- Maryland - 8W (Last minute TO see Minnesota)
- Wisconsin - 9W (We don't settle for the FG)
- Iowa - 10W (Did you see the end?)

So again where does this 8 wins come from? I see 10 wins with a competent QB
 
Good luck to him and might I suggest, and hear me out, that you instead get on with being an adult and put football in the rearview? Just a thought.

Am I underselling him? I figured he'd win a few more but probably blow a couple close games.
 
Coaches basically told him that Sims was the guy. He'd be similar to Mccord, great pick up if we can get him. I'm sure he'd get some nil deal better than florida atl.

How would he be similar to McCord? Thompson threw for 500 yards 5 TD/5INT at FAU and will be coming off of major knee surgery. McCord was 3rd team All-B1G. He is an NFL guy coming in to start, while Thompson is a depth guy coming in to get a start on his coaching career.
 
Pussy. Quitter. Didn't want anyway.

Also, good luck in your future endeavors young man. You gave your body and heart to the game.

Thompson isn't as good as Mccord but he could have probably gone 11-1 or 10-2 throwing to the receivers they had at osu.

Maybe. But he didn’t do that throwing to some really good WR’s at UT. And you’re ignoring the fact that he’s coming off a torn ACL.

From September 9 of this year.
Charles Thompson is not the most honest guy in any room. IIRC when he sold cocaine to a FBI agent he said it was entrapment or that he was buying it for a friend or some such bogus story…I assume he said the transfer stuff to help his son out, so maybe it’s not all bad but still.

I mean, lying in that situation is something we would all do.

With that said, ever read his book? It is ****ing awesome!
 
He transferred bc Rhule put all his faith in Sims.
He did the right thing. He was injured and Rhule brought in a guy. Said guy failed spectacularly, so Casey would have started and probably gotten some wins. I dont blame him. Nice thing is that he’ll get a free phd when it’s all said and done.

Do you know if it’s untrue?
That’s not the version of things I’ve heard expressed by former Husker players on the radio. Why in the world would Rhule tell him to transfer? The version that was widely discussed was that Charles wanted a guarantee that Casey would start. To that Rhule said then you might want to look around. Only Rhule, Charles and Casey know for sure but I don’t trust Charles to give us anything but half truths.

😂😂😂 GTFOH, 7 years????? Casey knows he has little to no shot at the NFL so he's getting paid by jumping in the portal every year. When he's done he'll have thousands... This is utterly ridiculous

Based on what? He didn’t even stick around for any practices to compete and find out. CT was coming off surgery, did he really think a new staff wouldn’t go get another QB?
Rhule guaranteed sims the job to get him

Same with DR

Not a bad thing, 100% reality
