Glad UK let the kid go. We got a better QB easily
That remains to be seen. Our guy was not a starter at ND so nobody really knows how he will look in a game. I seem to remember a guy from UGA coming here in the same situation and that not working out so well. I am NOT saying our QB will do the same but we need to see him play a bit before we annoint him.

How did Cutter become a starter at UK?
Because our braindead coaching staff (at least on offense) thought Zach Calzada would be a quality SEC starter. They apparently never watched any film of him. I remember when we signed him and most people were questioning it. Boley could've been good in time and in a better system but he wasn't ready last year.

CB has really nice potential. He was easily the best QB CMS era ever saw. However he wasn’t able to grow and max out his potential with the previous system/philosophy.

Dillingham is playing coy and talking like coaches talk this time of year. There is no way you pay that money for him and not play him.

He wanted him out of high school. Clearly saw the raw talent and potential we all saw in glimpses.

No need to be sour and act like we all weren’t hyped about him playing for a young offensive HC.

Will Levis is the best QB in the Stoops era, Boley was the best HS commit that played. Barker we will just never know. Completely agree on the rest though. Boley will be good for ASU and he played well for UK as a RS Freshman with no game experience before SEC play. Dillingham is a good offensive minded HC and he stayed on Boley, so he clearly sees the talent. With Omarion Cooper and Reed Harris to throw to, he will probably put up huge #s this year.

He was reportedly a coin flip to start for ND. Boley wouldn't have been. Yes, we need to see him in game action, but I am confident

Unfortunately I thought he looked awful in the spring game. My son was with me and had the same opinion. I posted that here and several people said they thought he looked amazing????? Funny how that can happen. Guess we will see.

I think a system will make or break a decent qb, a great qb can sometimes overcome a wonky/broken system.
I am praying our system is solid and Minchey is at the very least decent.
Sometimes I see him and think dang he is going to be good, other times I think oof we may be in for a long year. Just so hard to tell at this point.

I just want our coach to install a solid system, eventually we will hit on a qb that can move the chains for us. Heck Ward or Long might be able to step in if Minchey is not as advertised.

Still plenty of time for improvement

He may have been the best who was recruited as a frosh but NOT the best.

This is probably right. Hard to tell. Dillingham may be unsure and seriously considering the other guy or may be just playing coy, as you say.

Yeah. That is what you said. 🤦‍♂️

You claimed one thing and then in the next sentence gave yourself an out. LOL

My initial post said "he will start unless hes just awful". That's literally how it want with calzada. He started, was awful, so they finally made a change.

I didn't change or hide anything. You're just being weird again.

This is how you assume it went with Calzada. Boley was better than Calzada, but young and inconsistent. We really don’t know why Stoops settled on Calzada at the beginning of the season. Stoops wants to win but you think he decided the starter on the bill paid and not the game played. I also don’t know Dickinson. I suspect most HCs pick the guy they think they can best win with. Seems natural to have a self preservation perspective over buyer’s remorse. Your theory makes less sense.

You have become the biggest conspiracy weirdo on this board. You attempt to squeeze most everything into a narrative you have pre-determined, regardless of actually presenting evidence of your conclusion.

Soon as Boley came in vs Ole Miss, we literally started running an entirely different offense. That is a clear indicator even the staff knew Calzada wasn't the guy. With Calzada, every route was a hitch or slant. The first play call for Boley was a deep wheel they would've never called for Zach.

Calzada was promised the position, like all bought qbs are.

Cutter was mid. People only hype him up because he’s a local kid. Minchey will have those people forgetting about Cutter very early.

False conclusion. Cutter went 1/3 in that game.

When a team prepares for a known QB and then is thrown a different look there can be a misleading appearence. One game does not determine what the staff felt or knew. Boley really struggled at times thereafter when he was named the starter and teams knew what they were guttering. How did he look at USC? He also played really well at times and I wanted him back.

But none of that, including your utter confidence in your position, informs that he has been guaranteed the starter role at ASU.

His completion percentage has nothing to do with the completely different play calls.

I know you think you're being clever but you're just trying too hard trying to score points where there are none. It ends up being weird.

Do you realize some QBs are more comfortable with different routes?

Good lord. At their base, those two were exactly the same skillset, was just the zach couldn't execute anything.

When you see a shift like that under a new qb, it means the staff is more comfortable with the different qb. That's why we shifted from an uber conservative pass calls, that zach still couldn't complete, to an aggressive wheel route.

Here is some bonus education: if you see a staff calling nothing but hitches/digs and slants, it means their qb is struggling and they are hunting completions for him. Zach kept throwing those way off target, usually in the dirt. His injury actually bailed out the staff.

Lol Bush Hamdan talked about simplifying the offense for Cutter. He gave him simpler reads . So im not sure what you were watching

The actual games.

Simplifying reads is not the same as running remedial pass routes. Its ok to not know football but just learn from the rest of us.
They literally dumbed down the whole offense for Boley . The goal was to get the ball out of his hands ASAP. You're not getting far in your route tree doing that. Just stop talking. You always choose to defend your argument no matter how dumb it makes you look.
