    He did play a helluva game vs Auburn the last 2 1/2 Q's of that game

    And maybe it was just a "I've got nothing to lose attitude because we're down 3 TDs" but I wish he would've played with it a little more.

    UCLA

    They have a chance to win every one of those games for 8 wins
    They aren't beating Rutgers or usc. They may can get to 6.

    I love how we run down our former players. Seriously guys. I want Will to look at MSU in a good light.

    Other than KJ Costello at LSU, that is the best I have seen a throwing QB play in our Jersey. Will absolutely destroyed Auburn for 2 quarters and about 3 minutes.

    Will had a career 6.3 yard average depth of target. The lowest in the history of the PFF college era (2014). Good luck to him. I don't hate him, he just isn't some great QB.

    Appreciate what he and Leach did, but the Leach "air raid" bored me to tears. The Croom "Doom", SlowMO, and whatever Zack and Co. were trying to do are also filed away with the Shira years. Looking forward to an exciting "O" under Lebby. 6-6 floor. Hail State!

    That and a Baseball L. He has good intentions. I don?t think remembering Will as an average QB with an above average coach is a bad thing. It?s just the truth. He was a great ambassador for State, stayed out of trouble, etc. If you?ve ever seen him in person you?ll also realize how tough the guy was to take some of the hits he did. He was not a big guy at all. I saw him in Chipotle a good bit and he was just not a big dude. No chance he weighs 216 that Washington has him listed at. If he does, they have him on one hell of a program.

    He chose to leave. Good riddance. Did you celebrate Dillon’s natty game too? Screw that.

    I know some MSU fans certainly did. And nothing wrong with that.

    When coaches leave for whatever reason there is going to be a lot of player turnover going forward. It's just how it is in this era. It's not going to end happily for every player. Will did not choose for Leach to pass away. He stayed with us one year after regardless along with many of our other players like Bookie, Jett, Tulu, etc. and it wasn't just Will that was lied to by the last staff. It wasn't their fault that MSU decided to cater to boosters friends for their last season at MSU and choose to hire people that were in over their heads and wanted to do something that was never going to work here. The truth is none of the players liked Barbay's offense and Arnett lost their respect hence why Selmon fired him.

    Coaches at P4 programs do not take players that they think are G5 talent. That doesn't make any sense.

If he stays with the Leach system, my guess is that he is still the coach at MSU.
    That is the one thing that really confused me about Arnett. Why would you tell people that you are going to do one thing really in the interest of keeping players that don't fit what you want to do? A lot of fans would have disagreed with changing offenses so drastically and yes it would have sucked for the players to have to change schools at the time and some fans would have felt bad for them but at least there would have been respect in the form of transparency.

    MSU fans dream about him failing. They live to see him fail. In fact, most MSU fans (whether male or female) will orgasm all over themselves if he fails. They'll think they've died and gone to Heaven if he fails. Rogers really rents a lot of free space in MSU fan's minds.

    Is that just our few vocal fans on social media and message boards? Whenever I talk in person to another fan, they always speak highly of Will. For whatever reason, our most negative (and usually dumbest) fans post the most. It makes us look bad as a fan base, other fanbases don't dog their own program like we do.

    You’re effing weird, dude. Nobody wants him to fail. If he does great at Wa we will be happy. If he doesn’t we’ll say, “He is what we thought he is.” With all that imagery, do you keep his senior poster above your toilet or shower in case you prefer to sit when you pee?

    I'm with you here, and I feel like that about every player who transfers out of our program. It's just hard for me to root on former players who leave on their own will. I can completely understand players looking for a better opportunity if the playing time isn't there for them or they get pushed out but when starters leave, I never root them on.

    If you cannot understand why Will left, I cannot help you.

    My take on Will: He is not as good as Leach made him look, and he is not as bad as Arnett made him look either.

    Arnett's offense was like an even shittier version of Moorhead's. No QB was going to look good.
