Just some simple cleanup. If it were something major, you might have a point. It's like a knee scope, but on the elbow.
Repeating speculation I've heard isn't doing anything one way or the other. Some guys want to play and are wiling to transfer down to do it. D-Will may be one of them. I DON'T KNOW. But don't act like I'm saying something no one else is. This has been speculated about ever since we announced in August we were going to attempt to redshirt D-Will. Engie was actually one of the first to mention it. But I don't see you trying to call him out.
Stop being a dumbass and just acknowledge that D-Will can be really good but still only be 3rd on our depth chart. Because that's the situation. Fitz and Staley are just special talents. That's not a knock on D-Will, it's a complement to Fitz and Staley. There are a whole bunch of years in our history where D-Will would have undoubtedly been our best QB. Hell, I'd take him over Lee, Relf, and Tyler Russell just during the Mullen Era. That's not even going back to the Croom Error or the Kang Era.
That last little bit you gave is you planting the seed wether you realized it or not. I'd call out Engie too if I saw him saying that also. We need Williams. This next year especially. He is our veteran leader at the QB position. Worst case scenario he will help to develop the other 3 QBs. Basically I just want everyone to get off his nuts and stop putting pressure on him to transfer out. Give him this next year to prove he's worthy of taking up a scholarship. If he can't do that after next year I will agree it is then time to cut bait. Not now though. Not after just losing Dak. Williams is the only QB on the team that has started for MSU before.
