He's been playing for 3 years. He needs to move to a G5 school or FCS and try to get some experience. He was beat out by 4 or 5 qbs at NU alone over 2 years. Raiola would have been 1 more and maybe even DK. No point in him staying.

- Start date
I don't think he'll start anywhere next year (obviously), his 5th playing college football. maybe Northern Arizona or something like that. I'd be shocked if he was a starter in the Mountain West.
Purdy's name will always be etched in college football lore, however.
the only player in college football history to actively participate in two separate games in which 3 quarterbacks for the same team threw an interception
CT is a reliably good throwing QB. Clearly if we are recruiting guys like Raiola and Kaelin we intend to throw the ball and the usefulness of a guy like Haarberg who is a running QB that might hit an occasional pass are over. Better to just move him. Having him come in means changing the entire offense.
the game was tied until purdy came in and gave it away with that comically predictable INT in the end zone.
your memory is as shoddy as your football opinions.
Purdy's final career stats at Nebraska:
105 attempts
50.5% completions
529 yards (5.0 yards/attempt, 2.8 air yards/attempt)
2 TD
6 INT
53 rushing attempts
253 yards (4.77 ypc)
3 TD
3 Fum, 2 FumL
2 seasons, 5 TDs, 8 turnovers, 0 wins

Agreed. Kaelin as an early enrollee will be a better option than Purdy.
Opening Day QB depth chart with or without purdy:
1 - Raiola
2 - Haarberg
3 - Kaelin (can play 4 games and still redshirt, which is the ideal outcome for all)
the scout team might miss him. the varsity sure won't.
Can two more disparate sports brothers be named?
Maybe Hank and Tommy Aaron

The magnitude of Chubba’s loss is an unknown. I think he still has potential for being a pretty good QB, but that’s simply my opinion. He needs playing time to develop and to learn to limit mistakes. Yeah, I get the lousy stats so far. We had a QB here in Denver, #7, that, if you ask me, kind of stunk his first few years in the NFL and ended up being one of the best in the league (and I’m not making a comparison to Chubba, just to illustrate the learning curve for some players).
Not the Iowa game. I was referring to the Maryland game. He came in after running the scout team the previous 2 weeks and getting no reps on the plays being called.
he came into the maryland game with the game tied 10-10.
Satterfield & Rhule's gross mismanagement of him prior to and during that game is probably another thread altogether.
somehow after watching Ruhles reaction to all his QB's turning theball over, I dont think Ruhle is worried about losing any of them.
I agree there's a learning curve, but disagree with where you're directing it
chubba has played in 16 college football games over the course of 4 years.
Haarberg, however, has played in 7 games + 3 series in 2 others over the course of 1 year. he's never received any kind of attention or coaching. he's the one with unrealized potential that everyone should be excited to see stick it out, compete and improve.
he's a winner, he bleeds for Nebraska, he's tough as nails, has the heart of a lion and possesses an iron will. he's unflappable in the face of gigantic headwinds - some certainly of his own creation.
instead, everyone roundly dismisses him and shits on him.
chubba is who he is.
Well let’s just say that DID happen…how long before he throws an INT so bad the coach questions all of his life choices? Week 1 opening drive?
Go ahead and find where I said he’ll likely be a power 5 starter. I’ll wait.
Our QB room literally went from a F to B+ overnight and with Chubba leaving it is still a B+. Even if it did drop in grade with his departure (it didn't) it would still be a better grade than the F we had last season. Steel sharpens steel so that B+ will improve. Purdy would have interfered with the sharpening part.
Here you go
have fun playing the semantics game in your attempt to deny/reframe this!
After losing to a bad Michigan State team is when I texted a friend to say the Huskers will not go to a bowl this season. HH played a terrible game when playing just a good mistake free game would have gotten a win. Then Purdy got involved at the end of the Maryland game and all of the Wisconsin and Iowa games. Both these two quarterbacks failed miserably when the team really needed them. Do people realize how much damage the 16 turnovers by the Huskers quarterbacks have done to the team? Both financially and reputationally. I would have loved listening to an interview with the three asking them why they thought they turned the ball over so often. Did they just not have the talent, was it lack of talent by the rest of the offense or did they just not think it was important to avoid mistakes? As in taking risks was worth the rewards.
Haarberg played horribly @msu.
We abandoned what we did well almost immediately in that game.
Frustrating all the way around
Again, just my opinion from observing him the very few games he played for NU. I’m still pissed at that last throw right to the Iowa defender, though. Hope he does well at his next destination but doesn’t win a Heisman 😂.
I’m not talking about having an “awesome” 3rd team backup. I’m talking about having a 2nd teamer who has a little experience and complete a forward pass.
50.5% completions at Nebraska.
again, very sorry for your loss, Fritzy.
but it sure as hell ain't our loss.
My God if we get stuck in the Haarberg vs Purdy debate we'll never get back.
there's nothing to debate.
HH is the last man standing from last year's QB room. that's not a coincidence.
the other 2 won't be missed and are representative of the exact type of player/culture we are purging.
I wouldn't be surprised if they just wait it out til after spring ball and see who is on the market and pickup another QB then.
Possibly and likely are two completely different things you dumbass. You’re clearly reaching to retaliate for being astronomically wrong about HH starting for the Huskers next season. Stop putting words in my mouth and get help.
Chubba stinks and is a freakin beta.
Sorry, let’s get a QB with some stones. Also, one who doesn’t just drop the effing ball for no reason

You cannot dictate how you run your football team on hypothetical future injuries.
You better have a competent backup. Hopefully Kaelin can be that if he doesn’t win the job.
You going to be mad when Dylan plays all year with no injuries? You sure go on and on about him getting hurt
Dylan is already 6'3 230. As long as he isn't running around taking unnecessary hits and delivers the ball quickly and efficiently LIKE A QB is supposed to do he will be fine.
