Go back and read the prior posts. The issue is not the validity of Shapen. The question is whose the starter for 2025. If Shapen misses the entire spring training and the new Qb's excel there should be a Qb controversy.

Nobody said they were looking for a savior. We are looking for a good Qb. Shapen is that. If he doesn?t make it thru the season then let the Kromenockle kid take over. But Shapen has proven that he can be a productive QB which is more than what we have walked into at the QB position in most of the history of MSU football.

Yep, both got 1 win. Terrible. Shapen sent the season down the drain losing to Toledo.

Cmon, Todd. You and I both know that MVB is going to be the second coming of JB at LSU and garner a minimum 2 mil nil deal. Lebby might as well resign when SEC play starts next year if we aren’t undefeated. ****

Shapen hasn't done anything with MSU or Baylor to be discussed in MSU history. The results haven't proved anything yet. I hope he improves and gets winning results. However he hasn't brought the results he's being paid to do. The only stats that matters are W or L's.

And the defense gets a pass for allowing 41 points to Toledo and for keeping the ball away from our offense? Yep. All on Shapen.**

He won the MVP of the Big 12 championship game, and has taken Baylor to a bowl game as an underclassman. On top of that he has a win at Oklahoma.
The only real question is if he is healthy or not. Even if he isn't we're in a better spot with Kromenhoek than we are with MVB.

He will run the offense catered specifically to him as is the case with most QBs

Everyone seems to forget the Toledo game - and first part of Arizona State.

He's not missing spring unless Lebby holds him out

I can guarantee you, with 100% certainty, Lebby is running his full offense for Shapen.

Offensive schemes are polished to fit the qb. Good coaches always do this. He has the full playbook but he will run it according to Shapens strengths (no pun intended)

It has been suggested that he won't be ready by spring...

We have visits lined up for this weekend when the dead period ends. I think Sunday may be the first day we can have visitors. Visits will begin again and be full throttle for the next 7-10 days after that.
