Sunday Morning QB- Mugged in Memphis Edition

[Turfdawg67]

But the kid won't push the ball down the field. He has no mobility. He has bad pocket presence. He takes 12 seconds to make decisions. He's the best we've got right now. I get that.

This is it in a nutshell... although I did fix one word. He obviously "can" push the ball down the field. The 4th qtrs against La Tech and Memphis were exciting and well executed, and for that I'm not ready to give up on the scheme working here. And for those that would claim it's because of a prevent defense, wrong. We play against a prevent defense every play.

Agreed! Question is why wont he do it all freaking game long?

[confucius say]

Of course you don't. To be fair, if I were trying to justify bad qb play, I would avoid those 2 also.

I agree with most of the OP points.

But will has played plenty well enough to have us 3-0 and on the path for a bowl game. Which is all anybody expected out of him. He's limited and is doing what he can.

The biggest controllable problem is the crap that is going on around him. We don't play clean. False starts, too many men off the field, numerous fumbles, personal fouls. Just sloppy. That is the most disappointing thing to me.

You lose credibility with your first take. Ketchup on steak means you don't know what your doing on a grill.

Second the reason this system isn't working is because we still don't have the players to run it effectively. Y'all act like we have the best receivers in the world. Most of our receivers are still young. Our Qb is still young. ( even though I don't trust him ) .

Do we not have the players or are we not getting Tulu the ball?

To be fair- Heath has thought he was wide open on every play since the 10th grade

I remember saying we needing to sign Drummond, but experts on here said he was a system WR and not SEC quality. But Heath was the real deal.. right--Heath wasn't the leading wr at Co-Lin--but Drummond lead all Juco.

Heath has grown up a lot. Come a long long long way. But if some on here knew how far he had to go when we signed him they would have never wanted him

Heath has been pretty good for us. I would have been fine with both though.
