You have to remember there we’re teams in the old big 8 that were simply bad so bob and Tom could get by with a below average quarterback, but even coach Osborne wouldn’t have put up with all the turnovers.
I don't feel bad for anyone making 200k to fumble and throw picks every game. Do your damn job or GTFO. Good riddance to all 3.
Mostly that was Callahan biggest fault, trying to put a square peg in a round hole the first year he ran his offense..
Jeff Quinn led the nation in passing efficiency his senior year. We would be so lucky to have a QB as good as him right now.
Yep, this is the worst I’ve ever seen this program with 3 QB’s..
He also fumbled at the 3 with the go ahead TD in the loss to Florida St 18-14..
Me as well. I only go back about 40 years or so but I never seen anything comparable. We probably don't have a D1 QB on the roster currently. Talk about embarrassing...
And yet it’s Rhule fault he didn’t get anyone better..
Would Joe Dailey be an upgrade over what we have here now?
Mmmmmm. Thats hard to say. Anyone who runs out of bounds on 4th down under no pressure to do so doesn't get a gold star from me.
Sims couldn’t catch a snap and won’t put the ball away when running. That’s on the player. They run ball security drills. Watch Haarberg get 2 hands on the ball to at least try to prevent fumbles. It’s Sims. It’s not his coaching.
Callahan’s first year was baaaaad! Too. Dailey got moved from QB after he transferred. He did have Ganz as a 2 star true freshman and he eventually produced somewhat. Other than that the room was terrible.
We see it every year in the NFL when a head coach and GM reach for a QB with flaws they think they can fix. About the only QB I’ve seen that work with has been Josh Allen and even then the turnovers are still a problem for him. I think it was Gil Brandt that I listened to talk about that and it’s repeated time after time by NFL teams. He says either a QB has it or they don’t by the time they’re a starting college QB.
Not sure. I think Dailey was asked to do more as a passer than these guys (in Callahan’s offense after being recruited for Frank’s offense). As someone said, Callahan didn’t really try to adapt his offense to Dailey’s skill set. I don’t remember Callahan calling any option plays, that’s for sure. But regardless, it was tough to watch.
I watched several NFL QBs give games away with INTs yesterday. You’re always going to have some. I’m not ready to say Purdy would turn it over as much as HH and JS. I want to see more of him in this offense before I kick him to the curb. Purdy’s injuries have really prevented him from being a factor up until now.
Adrian Martinez and Casey Thompson were good leaders overall. If they were running this offense we would likely be 8-2. Both just played on horrible teams with horrible OLs and horrible coaches.
