And he?s not ready, earlier on the season.
Me, and I was right? What point are you trying to make here. It obviously clicked with him somewhere around game 7 and he was ready to take over around Arkansas but I understand the logic not throwing him to the wolves for UGA and Missouri and giving him the 2 extra weeks for the egg
My point is our fans are not good judges of what should happen.
Aint that the truth. One of em even started a thread saying we should bring Mullen backQuote:

Too many answers to the he's not ready. Depends on ready for what. Some questions, yes. And yet others, still no. He IS going to be the guy. And he likely will achieve his full potential. Today was just the beginning.
Here, and wasn’t great today. Missed on many throws and we never had much continuity in offense outside of the scripted series. He has a boatload of ability and made some amazing athletic plays but we had zero offensive flow due to inconsistency today. He needs a lot of help, we must improve talent on the oline or it doesn’t matter if Superman is the qb, you can’t be good with your ass on the ground.
Our coaching staff was dumb not to play him more. He accounted for about 400 yards today.
Water under the bridge. On to baseball.
KT is priority #1. He's gonna be great, but will it be for us?
I did. I will absolutely own that one. We probably lose Az State with him but we beat Florida and Texas. He gave us enough today to show me he could have won against those two teams.
In this era, if you have a superstar, You play him.
We had 2 freaks on our team -
Kelly Jones
KaMario Taylor
One of them is a first round pick.
The other rode the bench while we barely lost games.
Kamario is a superstar to be. It is a progression and he is progressing. But don't imply he was ready for Arizona State and beyond. That is just not the case.Quote:

Yes to AZ State and not sure we would have won against Florida and Texas. But we would have progressed him more so . However don't think it would've been enough to get us an Egg Bowl win.Quote:

Not reading a thing of this thread. If youre out on KaMario 17 you and 17 off
He would not have made a difference in our season! Yes, he?s got the POTENTIAL to be great, but he was not going to be our savior this year. Yes, he might be the most gifted QB that we have signed, and yes, he runs like Bond, yes, he has a cannon of a arm, BUT he would not have made a difference in our season bc his accuracy is a huge issue. He missed on several big opportunities today, and it is not even debatable. When you?re missing receivers by feet on the reg, what can you argue?? If we had played him vs any SEC teams this year, he would have 1) lost, 2) the fans would have thrown him under the bus, and 3) he would be injured.
SVS said he would have made a difference vs TX and FL?..no he would not have made a difference. We would be a one dimensional team with him as we were today. You load the box, spy him with your fastest defensive player in passing situations, blitz on every play, and you win! Great legs don?t beat the top tier SEC teams. They look good at times, but they don?t win games for you alone. Our record would have been just as bad, and we would have lost to ASU.
If he can turn the corner with his accuracy, we recruit better with big, fast wr?s and improve our OL, then we can get excited. Until then, all we have is a very athletic QB.
I did until the last few games. I thought he could have been brought in and used a little more throughout the year to change the pace and further him along.
Eh, if he'd started since UF teams would have had a lot more film on him and what he does well in the passing game and what he doesn't. He's still really raw but the kid has a chance to be cam newton jr just gotta make sure we get enough pieces around him to keep him upright. He takes hits every game like he did OM and we won't see him on the field for a whole season.
Won't matter if we don't put a competent OL around him and replace some wrs.
I am not sure why some don?t get this.Quote:

He very well could be the next Cam Newton. Just get that rocket launcher in check, find us some big, physical receivers like Bear, and some OL we will be pretty scary to face.
Nobody knows what would have happened.
Everyone acting like he wouldn?t have won other games has no idea either.
He missed couple of passes in his first real
Game. Chamnliss did too.
How would Arizona State have handled his running? We dont know.
Shapen was our best chance to win at the start of the season. 100%. KT was not ready at all then.Quote:

Actually it would have been nice for KT to get solid reps against Alcorn and Southern Illinois. Especially once we got up on them.
Can't argue with this either. You never truly know until you do it.Quote:

He should have been brought along and the moment we lost 3 in a row I would have started him.
