Matt Wyatt, Brian Hadad, and Robbie Faulk have all said just this week that Sawyer has practiced well lately and they believe if he were here in spring that he would be competing for the starting job right now. Will is clearly the guy right now Per them, but I don’t believe Sawyer is practicing poorly for a true freshman that didn’t get here until 2 months ago.Quote:

A kid who competed last year against SEC ONLY defenses has identical numbers to Madkin who played against teams like Vandy,SCar, ETSU and Alabama is not even comparable. Hell Arkansa was ranked in top 5. Not to mention the speed today is totally different than average team speed in 98. Fast will always be fast but overall numbers athletes are more numerous and consistent today than in 98.
As far as Cooter and others criticizing Lem during season on pitching usage, I think you just sat through a Master level class on pitching management. It is a closed case now, we are all fans and entitled to our opinions and frustrations BUT back off the coaches and players. These guys and kids are being paid to do something next to non of you have done or will ever do. Grab your popcorn and beer sit down and shut up. Enjoy the sports while we still can. I truly believe amateur athletics is a thing of the past. Enjoy it while it lasts and HAIL STATE
You're right different era...Quote:

So, madkin was slightly above avg, and will was well below.

Strange that you guys take comparing will to madkin as an insult. Why you guys shitting on the only qb we've had that played in Atlanta?
I have nothing but respect for that. Super annoying, but respect.Quote:

I did this incorrectly. Mean would be a much better picture of what's the average passer rating for each year was. Maybe someone will work that out for me, busyQuote:

Here are the stats, I am bored and off for next 3 weeks so I had the time. Madkin in 12 games including crappy teams such as Alabama, ETSU etc.. 96 of 199 completion percentage of 48.2 for 1532 yds with a passer rating of 122.1
Rogers in 9 games not even all started was 239 for 346 for 1976 yds and 69.1 completion percentage with a passer rating 123.5
Not crapping on what Wayne did, it was great but that team was built for running and the defense was pretty good too. You are arguing against a kid that was a true freshman with no fall or real practice time that was not even getting first team reps until week 3, playing in a new system with which the surrounding players were not even remotely recruited for because we were a run first, second and sometimes 3rd down team. Not to mention only playing SEC teams that were told just drop 5 yds back and sit in this zone.
Will Rogers is a much better throwing win than Madkin ever was and he is just getting his feet under him. Sawyer I think will be really good, maybe even better long term but right now this year, Rogers is the best option going forward.
Anyone that is saying dofferent is just being a contrarian. Or troll.
I didn't take it as an insult. I took it as you proving my point.Quote:

Agreed, ban bets should be banned or at least a duration of no longer than a week or something. I disagree with a bunch of guys on this message board but I don't want all yes men either.Quote:
