Will the Gio fans now admit he was not the answer either?
You're out of your mind. Night and day
ok, I stand corrected on the decade, but no one disagrees with the sentiment.
Huh? We should have 14 in the 2nd half under his leadership (yes, he dropped the TD, but we should've scored before that play), which is a huge improvement. Not saying he's great, but there's not doubt he's better than AS. No doubt.
We ran it on several plays with Gio earlier in the game when he came in for positive yardage so there are read/option plays in the playbook
more like "night.. in hopes that in 2-3 years he could be day" compared to "twilight.. that we have for one year"
Because he sailed a couple passes, after getting next to no reps all year long?
The D has really improved the last several weeks under Ash's leadership - gotta give him credit for something.
O'Hara needs to stop slobbering over the PSU OL.
It's easy to look good when you can get away with holding damn near each play.

I believe the rationalization from McNulty was that if we sped up the offense it would disrupt the run game.
He's the better option when looking at the available options to answer the question "who should be RU starting QB this season?"
is he the savior ? nope, but best of available choices
I meant as a system.. you said "going away from the read option" as if that is our system. We have seen successful pitch plays and times that we just stopped calling them from some unknown reason. Same ere... we called fewer "options" because they started getting shut down.
I don't think it is a staple of the "Pro-Style" so we never called it.
Makes sense why no Gio all year.
His best plays are plays we don't run often.
Gio has looked just as bad as Sitkowski over the years.
BTW.. huge hold on PSU 71 on that McSorely 1st down. With no one between him and the white hat.. no reason not to call that... other than bias.
I dont know if its a legit question but would Ash/McNulty think
"we are already committed to Sit all year. If Gio comes in and looks good, it signifies we made the wrong choice all year."
I agree - read/option plays are not the bread and butter plays in a pro set playbook, but McNulty clearly put some read/option run plays in there to take advantage of Gio’s running ability. We were running those plays on that long 85 yard drive but then we stopped calling those plays for some reason.
LMFAO
Nice to see Old Man Jerome made an "effort" to dress for this game.
