    He was 12-16 for 200 yards and made 1 bad throw all game, while his protection was shit. Criticize him if you want for the grounding but three guys were in the backfield literally before a One Mississippi count was made. The strip sack TO needs to be thrown out of bounds or eaten, but that was also shit protection. Getting mad at the Oline for false starting 3 plays in a row (4th down and 2 and then the first two plays of the next possession) was human reaction to an absurd turn of events. He played winning ish football today. He played really well against Bama and OU, he was ok against ULM and Baylor, he was a non factor but didn’t hurt us against Kansas, he was fine against KSU. He shit the bed throughly and completely against TCU and Boone Pickens State. He’s basically the equivalent to a true freshman that got a spring under his belt because he graduated early- exactly the timeline Arch will be on. 


    He needs to get a lot better over the off-season. He has the tools to do it. If he does we will be awesome (provided we fill some holes in the portal which we should) and If he doesn’t the Arch experience will likely start a little earlier than we planned. It’s few and far between when a True (ish) freshman plays championship quality football from the word  go. 


    He should be fine. Anyone saying he can’t be the guy after this year either knows the future or has way more certainty than they ought to have. 



     


    Quinn’s upside/potential as a freshman should have fans feeling optimistic despite everything that has gone shitty since his breakout showing v. OU. His setbacks/regression and the timing of his injury coupled with Sark’s stubborn-as-mule-schlong play calling v. Ok St. and TCU add up to a lot of frustration. No doubt. But if anyone is ready to throw this kid to the scrap heap already, I disagree. He can be taught, groomed and he can improve. The state of the QB room will not be a panic situation in 2023. The O line is maturing fast. Young talent wants to be here. 
     

    we might find out he has a hand injury or something lingering from the injury earlier this season. Who knows?

    QB1/Trigger Man is hot fucking garbage right now. Is that on Sark? Perhaps, since he's supposed to be the QB guru. There were 60 QB's who started FBS games today who would've beaten TCU tonight. Our 5-star, 1.000-rated QB wasn't one of them.

    Quinn’s been off for several games. Sark should have had the presence of mind by the second quarter of last night’s game to at least try Card. Quinn didn’t have it but he also didn’t make call play after play of downfield passes he had minimal chances of connecting on. simple intermediate passing mixed with trusting the run could have beaten the #4 team given how well the defense played. Sark inexplicably went for video game style points with a freshman QB he has to know is struggling badly. This isn’t a Card V. Ewers and who has more upside debate.

    It’s about winning V. fucking things up for kids who played their asses off.


    Going for the blocked punt when you’re only down 7 was brain dead. And costly.

    You are getting the ball back and you are down 7 

    you call for a block punt. 
     

    This is someone with extra chromosomes 

    These kids have executed their ficking guts out and Sark has playcalled and gameplanned this game into the ground.

    Let Quinn heal or do what he needs to do to get right. The playcalling has not fit his current skill set. Adjust, Sark, or GTFO.

  4. They can never handle any modicum of success. I was talking to an ag frend of a friend last week and he’s still on the “The media never gave Johnny a fair chance from day one.” I said the first time I ever heard his name, it was tied to an awful racially-motivated hate crime. How is that the media’s fault? “Scumbags report what they want to report to fit a narrative.” Conversation devolved from there…

    He was talking about tailgating in front of Pyle like he had luxury box seats for the Catalina Wine Mixer. “It’s a multi-generational tradition affair for us. We’ll fly in from anywhere to be there.”
