LOL.

Hopefully he received enough reps this week

Does it matter? Really, does it matter?

Not going to make a difference between a loss obviously but DL might make the game more watchable. Surace is worthless

Isn't DL hurt? I thought it was between Surace and Ashenfelder. I was hoping for the latter.

Ahenfelder is worse than Surace

Ahenfelder is worse than Surace

I actually fully agree with him there.

It's difficult to call when both are so bad and one has had more reps and time in program.

AJ arm strength is shocking for B 10 qb. Floated a number that could have been made.

3 completions against a 1-3 conference team. Sitkowski numbers. How do we not just play wild knight with Ashenfelter

I am calling myself out. I thought he should have won the job coming out of camp. I was incredibly wrong. He is terrible. His pocket awareness is awful. Maybe in high school he had 10 seconds to sit there and maker throws but he seems oblivious to what's happening around him. It's also hard to understand how a coaches son stands totally flat-footed in the pocket like that. I've never seen a QB do that before. It's weird.

To be fair - GS has made his public interaction so dull and sanitary there was no way to know.

That RU football wasn’t putting out posts on x or insta during summer camp is so clear how tight the grip is.

I scratch my head though thinking back to the TKR podcasts predicting that Surace would win the role. I don’t care how bad our D is - Surace couldn’t conceivably have looked even with Lonergan at any point let alone better. And DL is no superstar but…. I don’t get it. As I posted on another string, I don’t recall us ever having a back up who was this incompetent. The thing about it is our OL isn’t terrible - it’s not like the Ash years and the first few years of 2.0 where the QBs truly had no time. Completing only 3 passes in a whole game (and one of them was a great play by our TE) is horrendous.
