Purdue is onto something

They had 3 different qb's playing with 3 different goals...

they have not painted themself into a corner with 1 qb (injured or not)

this is something with the recruiting and transfer portal I'd like to see in the future.
I'd like to see:

1. more that 1 qb playing
2. qb's with mental toughness, that can understand being benched is not a personal attack but a business decision
3. at least 4 decent qb's ready to play, with a "we qb's" mentality.....reference "we backs" for more info
4. I'd like to give this gift to opposing defensive coordinators something to fret over

we have seen many a qb transfer from Nebraska without proper venting in game time on the gridiron.
and have limited our options, notice what purdue did, mentioned above, also notice spencer rattler is not playing, and yet alive with no drama.
I'm tired of the qb's always being treated like they are mentally unstable, and will self combust if benched.
and alot of times when you throw it all on 1 qb's shoulders they tend to get injured more.

so lets be thankful to purdue and oklahoma for showing us the way forward.

You realize Brohm is below .500 at Purdue & the Purdue fans’ biggest gripe is not having a #1 QB?
And you probably don’t watch Purdue much, but they usually don’t rotate 3 QBs or have success with it. They scored 13 points a game their last three games.

And there is plenty of drama with Spencer Rattler. He is on his way out.

Purdue is on to something.

They threw the ball 43 times for 378 yards while holding Iowa to 76 yards rushing on 30 carries because their QB and offense are awful.

You realize when you're a constant douche no one here likely cares what you have to say?

You probably don't watch your posts enough or which board you're on, but Io_a scored 7 pts today.

There is plenty of drama with the Iowa football program and KKKF should probably make his way on out.

I like adrian martinez, seems like a good guy trying the best he can.

but if his ankle or jaw is hurt and he can't run,,, 50% of his game is gone (vanished)
and we can't rely on 25% good pass 25% bad pass...

we have to have 100% out there at qb to have a chance. with martinez his 25% bad pass (see throwing behind or way over receivers, depending which day) is ok cause he has 50% good run and 25% good pass.

so from this point forward stockpiling the qb position with options will be job #1 for frost

(btw, martinez was across the goal line, not that it matters now)

Yup. You nailed it. We are basically banking on our 2022 or 2023 top 150 QB being a stud. Outside chance the 4 star freshman on the team currently does something. We need a QB.
