    Let's just beat TX, beat Arky, and everything else will be gravy the rest of the way.
    It shows they play for each other for sure.

He's having trouble picking up the playbook and having trouble making the correct reads. Look no further than Saturday. 3 of his 4 plays in the middle of the field were RPOs. If he hands off on even one of them, Gayten has a first down. He's gotten by on his athleticism for so long that he's still figuring out how to make the correct reads in real time.

    And btw, none of that makes him a bad player. It makes him a Freshman. Which he is. The kid is extremely athletic and has all the physical tools to be a great, he just needs coaching and development.
    KT will not start or get more playing time. LEB said that When KT was in he had the RPO and was clueless on what to do except rub up the middle when the handoff would've been a big gain/. He isn't ready. Now that could be the fault of the coach also. I hate the RPO it takes all the responsibility off the coach and puts it on a kid who clearly isn't ready. Dam Leb at least you could have a very basic package for him with called plays,

    Kamario knows about 10% of the playbook. Some of that is by design because we are giving him what he can handle. That is the package of plays he has been given. He made the wrong read twice. Like I stated in another thread, there is some frustration the he is not picking some of the reads up a little quicker but at the same time we cannot stop practice every 5 minutes for 20 minutes to walk Kamario through the reads.

    He needs to spend a ton of time with a QB guru in the offseason.

I like Shapen, but don't run your smart ass mouth to the fans.
    Yeah it goes both ways and if Shapen does that to his boss then that's his problem.

    My point is he wasn't blaming fans for his play.

    A lot of fans don't want to hear but it a lot of athletes in general don't care for the fans very much.

    Maybe those negative comments will inspire him to get out there and bust his butt and play his best game. Let's hope so.

    Or hire better QB coach who can teach it to him where it's not going over his head.

    What a joke. You are clueless and obviously not an athlete.

    Shapen is giving everything he has on the field every Saturday. He took 100% of the blame for the loss even though there was plenty of blame to go around. Only to have a bunch of loser, retards on social media give him a ton of hate.

    Easy to say ignore but it?s hard to do when you are being attacked by your own fan base.

    I don't call out players... I stick to coaches, who I feel aren't putting players in the best position to win. I do find it rich that some of the same ones that blamed the loss on shapen Saturday here, cheer him on for basically calling them out. The only difference is the platform in which he was called out on.

    ETA... BTW, I have no problem calling out players. Well, unless it's a kicker, punter, or LS or someone that doesn't make crap, if you dish it out, you should be able to take it though. No problem with Shapen in this instance

    Or how about do what Ron Polk did in the 80's when high school baseball was dominated by assistant football coaches who coached the team recreationally and actually cultivate coaches that run somewhat modern offenses at the high school level? Sure there are some out there but for the most part it's a joke.

    Shapen did cost us the game and he took responsibility. And we have fans who are calling him out that are saying some things that are unfair to him. Both can be true.

    What's rich is you saying that you want to call our coaches for not putting players in a position to succeed while then championing for the coach to play the QB that gives us the least chance to succeed right now.

    KT has been on campus 11 months now. How can he not be further along? Is he getting any development? More coaching fails?

    Said qb is already playing. I've called for a series or 2 every game, but I want some 1-read passes added to his role. This is hardly a controversial take.

    ETA... post 2 of this thread

    Don't have time to quarterback whisper anymore. These guys need to start practicing in the summertime 11 on 11 in a field somewhere. Five days a week all day

    Or........maybe it has nothing to do with the coaches or their coaching.

    I am so tired of having players that are not ready. They have had 4 months of practice. WTF is the issue? How do other teams that have freshman OL or freshman QBs get their players ready?
