Good Lord. Our backup QB comes in just when I'm starting to think doing the laundry on a Friday night will be a more pleasant experience than watching Bobcat field goal attempts all night and a switch is flipped. I'm really hoping that Greg's ankle injury is what has been keeping him off the field for the last few games. I can't believe it was ever a hard decision to decide which quarterback gave our team the best chance to win. If he doesn't start the bowl game, I may be done with the Bobcats. So frustrating. Very proud of the defense tonight.
There are a few frustrating things related to the QB position for me:
1. Tyler Tettleton had a transcendent year and a solid year. Since then we have had no definitive starter from year to year. Sprague vs. vick, Windham, Maxwell (waste of a scholly on Duckworth). This is on the recruiters.
2. We didn't utilize our weapons which isn't the fault of the QBs. I don't care if we telegraph it...Papi and Sebastian need 15 touches or targets a game. And Reid could have been effective. Where was Mangen this year?
3. We have been vanilla every year except for the transcendent TT and Beau year on offense. That is the fault of Tim Albin and Frank Solich. One or both needs to retire or move on.
4. AJ Oulette would have been good for wins over Texas State, Eastern Michigan and, to tell you the truth, Tennessee. We were missing a grind it out, 3 to 5 yards at a time runner, putting more pressure on our QBs.
5. Next year I hope Keszei is up for the challenge because Maxwell is a redshirt freshman who showed no improvement. As a comparison take Hagan. Came in and and made plays as a redshirt freshman.
I agree that if Windham doesn't start the bowl game I will turn it off. I want too win the bowl game, not get Maxwell reps. We will not win with Maxwell the rest of this year.
