So are we not going back and forth. Sounds like a debate to me. KB will make the decision, JoMo is recruiting him.

Uh... No. Williams was the starter and Hill played. Williams was the SR 1100 yard back, and he played the Back up... Hill.
Again..
-KB is completing 20% or more of his passes than KT
-KB is coming from an RPO offense.
-KB was sacked more than Fitz yet still completed 66% of his passes.
I think that's what Bryant will do. We really don't need someone that can do it all with Hill, Guidry, and etc. coming back. We just need someone to get them the ball.
A coach trying to fix his offense is nice for a change. I think we've only gotten a glimpse at the potential of this offense because of our ineffectiveness throwing the ball or at least the limited ability to pass the ball.
I think KT could have used a RS season. I can blame anyone for that- he would have had his redshirt burned anyway with Fitz getting hurt late last year. But if we redshirt him next year he would still have two years left and I think he would really benefit from it. At the same time I still feel OK with him as our QB next year based on what I have seen from him this year.
Hill was labeled as this year's starter, right? And 90%+ are using RB by committee. JoMo judgement still, Aries was the complete back of the 2. Hill will be special, but has room to improve pass blocking. KB probably got way more real game experience before he was labeled starter. Why wasn't JoMo preparing KT or May when he had chances? We saw times were Fitz seemed hurt, LSU, JoMo trotted Fitz right back out there. And no where have I said or many argued Fitz is better than KB
The only thing I don't see is seeing pro and conn about offering a player on this board.
What concerns me is 16 tds/10 ints for his career. Really? At Clemson with their talent against the ACC? Fitz had better stats as a RS Soph for 1 season than KB has for his career ... outside of completion %.
I just don't see KB being a savior of any kind for this offense.
Why talk about it without looking it up? Why the axe to grind?Quote:

The TRUTH is that KT has gotten WAY more time. KB attempted 9 passes the year before he was the starter. The year before that... 9 passes too. So for 2 years prior to him becoming a starter, he attempted 18 pass.
KT has been at MS ST for 2 years... In year 1, he threw it 66 times... Year 2... 39 times. Both years... under 48% completion.
So I ask again... Why are you on here downing the coach over something that is a TOTAL LIE!???
You got me... I lied. I stated as fact using the word "probably". Fact is KT's significant playing time has happened due to injury to the starter and suspension of the starter. I do have an issue with a coach not preparing his backups when score or starter performance allows. We saw last year one dirty play and your backup becomes starter. Did KT win his starts or not?Are you ok with the lack of reps? KB has had the stability of being in the same offensive philosophy his entire career at Clemson. End of the day I'll be cheering the Dawgs on.
Kelly Bryant immediately quit on his program in the middle of the season when the backup, who is better, moved into the starting role. Why in the ever living hell would we even consider this guy to join our program? It's beyond stupid.
He didn't quit due to being beat out. He quit because he didn't want to split time after waiting for his time and taking them to the NCAA championship.
The question is why the hell would not want a 66% passer who is from a rpo system and took his team to an NCAA championship while the OL was trying to get you killed by allowing 27 sacks.
One thing that I do like about Bryant is he has some SEC experience- Alabama, Auburn, Texas A&M, and South Carolina and I may have left someone out. At any rate- he has performed against those teams. And most of those games were road games for Clemson. That has to make the transition to MSU and the SEC a little bit easier.
KB quit his team because Dabo realized early on that Lawrence was his only hope to win the NC... Sure, KB prolly coulda run the ACC table and gotten them in the CFP, but he wasn't going to give them the a decent chance of success... TL will.
While KB is a definitive upgrade over Fitz, I'm not sure y'all couldn't do better, but I don't know much about yall's current QB situation....
On the issue of "quitting", I can see both sides of that, but I'd like to see more peeps handle it like JH did as opposed to the current trend... I'm not sure I'd want a guy coming in under his own terms then holding the coach hostage and possibly bailing on me, too...
Bottom line, though: If Joe thinks the cat can help him win, he'll bring him in... and that's his job.
