Staley is leaving the basketball team to focus on football. Best news we've gotten in a while.

He had a beautiful TD pass against Troy I believe. Perfect pass.
Then he did the Cam Newton Superman thing which I could have done without but he is an emotional player.
Edit. It was NWestern State

He did in a few. He threw the most beautiful touchdown pass I've ever seen an MSU QB throw against Northwestern State.

He played in a couple. Scored 1 point against NC Central on Dec. 31, hasn't played since.

I agree, that was one of the prettiest passes I have ever seen. Elijah has the

tools he just needs to mature and hopefully he will. Fitz is not gonna just hand him the job so I hope this makes them both better.

I meant in a basketball game. Sorry I wasn't clear, but I think DawgsOnTheWing answered my question ... 1 point against NC Central and hasn't played since. Sounds like the decision to leave the BB team was a good one, other than just staying in shape.

For some reason I find myself wanting Staley to win the job.

Nothing wrong with Fitz at all, and I think both can be quite good. But there's just something about a 6-7 QB that can run and throw a beautiful deep ball that really intrigues me.

Plus, as others have mentioned, he seems to have an extremely entertaining personality.

I laughed. Not out loud but kind of on the inside.

More of a chuckle I guess. Either way it was an entertaining quick post.
