Keep Manning at all costs.

Not sure the latter matters with this staff.

Big flags in Stillwater. Now bigger flags tonight.

Sark ate two losses banking on his development. That shit baffles my fucking head. Average QB play wins OSU & TCU but Sark is satisfied with the Alamo Bowl.

Apparently he was fourth string at some point behind a guy that got a dwi. But hey he’s got a stronger arm than stroud

[coachherman'sgrill 2,102]

Non-concussed David Ash had some really, really bad games but I will own I believed the hype about Ewers but haven't seen anything besides a couple of good throws every now and then. More misses than anything.

[Nicole44 22,059]

Sark was just asked in the after game presser if he thought about putting in Card and why he didn’t put in Card and Sark said he didn’t think it would be fair to Card to put him in and make him try and save the day. SMDH!

I look at his face and there is absolutely no way that man cares about football much less winning football games.

The absolute lack of emotion is very concerning. His demeanor reminds me of Jay Cutler, who also gave off that l could care less what happens vibe, except Jay was obviously a much better player. Card gets hyped, puts his body on the line and runs the ball when needed, shows emotion that others can feed off of. Even if Card can't throw the ball as far as Ewers, he at least seems show he cares about doing whatever is needed to win the game.

I'm bummed because I thought this would be *the game* for Ewers.

I mean, do we need to hire a QB Whisperer or something to get this kid going?!?

Quinn needs to portal 

[Pathetic Shark 60]

It’s almost like he is a freshman who has played only five or six games.  Thank god he is consistently  bailed out by our sure handed receivers and a running game that delivers in Crunch time.

from now on, QBs can only be recruited from small towns or the inner city.

I did think and said to mdleast as we were watching that Ewers might be Garrett Gilbert 2.0. All the talent in the world but incredibly fragile.

Million dollar arm and 10 cent head

[Nicole44 22,059]

The question was whether he thought about putting Card in the game and why he didn’t do so. Sark thinks he knows every damn thing. They asked why sark did not put Card  in the game at all. Not specifically the last few minutes. Jeez!

10 cent head and zero relationship with his receivers. I've never seen receivers be so out of sync with a QB before. I've seen better chemistry between strangers playing a pickup game.

I think hes closer to GG than Swoopes. 

Swoopes still remains the worst, like rolling a beanbag on the field. 
 

GG 2nd worst, just couldnt hit targets. 
 

Ewers has shown to be better (vs KSU was very competent) but on his bad days he sure does a GG impression. 

[Coelenterate Fuccboi 13,091]

When we were bidding for Ewers last year I caught a lot of hell for questioning his mental toughness because of his struggles at OSU. I’m not talking about his play; there was a lot of discussion about his mental struggles with adjusting to college and being far from home. Top tier guys move all over the country and perform. Maybe he eventually gets over it, but he’s obviously not handling the pressure of the college game.

Ewers is Giblert 2.0

[crash_davis 23,107]

In the OU game, Quinn was passed to everyone, spreading the fucking love. OU couldn't stop us because we had so many fucking weapons. 

Since OU, Quinn is all in on Worthy. When that shit doesn't work, he'll eventually start to look at Sanders. Then he goes on all in on Sanders, even we he's double and triple covered. You can't tell me that no one else in this fucking offense can get open on pass routes? 

Quinn's head is absolutely fucked right now. Sark needs to hammer his ass on how fucking shitty his reads are. 

[mdmost 43,001]

The problem with all of us, media and fans, is we saw the OU performance and didn't take it for what it truly was, a win against the worst defense we would play all season. It was not indicative of what Ewers was. It was indicative of how bad OU was. Even in that game, Ewers was not accurate, outside of the TD pass to Sanders. A lot of those plays was our RBs and WRs adjusting to make a great play. Yet we're all so desirous of us being good again and having "the answer at QB" that we all overrated what Ewers did. That was the outlier. The mean is what we've seen the rest of the season. And that's normal with a freshman QB.

It wouldn't be fair to fire you for being a total dumbass but we may have to do it at some point, Sark.  With the amount of talent we have, we should not have 4 losses right now.  Every single game has been winnable.

Probably.  But who cares what players do when they leave Texas?  I'm a Texas fan.  Not a fan of players that used to play here.  I am when they do something at Texas, like Deonte Foreman.

hes a freshman who hasn't played in two years.  he's going to be fine.  i get it, im frustrated with tonight too, but this thread is stupid as fuck.

[shadow_operative 15,932]

i'm not sure he's made a single throw all season that's been mechanically correct. his footwork is garbage. everything is thrown off balance/off his back foot. it's like he's not getting any coaching. just out there slinging the ball around off his back foot and missing open guys/over throwing open guys with regularity. 

beyond this, tonight he seemed mentally weak. he looked scared and hurt. we were down two fucking touchdowns and the kid looked like his dog had just died and we were down by 70. he looked depressed, like he didn't want to be out there, when we 100% were still in contention to win. the guy needs to humble himself and realize that he doesn't actually know shit about playing QB at a high level. get rid of the stupid ass goofy haircut and beard, start taking yourself seriously, and start studying and practicing like you're a walk on trying to earn a scholarship. the kid has so, so far to go before he's ready to be a major d-1 qb.

On the deep throws.  Low on the intermediate throws.  Oh yeah, he had a BAL of twice the legal limit, too.

Unsure if Quinn will figure it out at Texas, but he’ll get drafted based on measurables and arm talent alone.

AL Bundy once scored 4 tds in a game. Quinn managed 2 against mighty ULM, but Quinn did have 4 against mighty ou with an INT thrown in there for good measure

I’ve defended this motherfucker from day 1. But I’m done. He fucking sucks and there’s zero chance that he’ll rise to Case McCoy level.

The only ones he has chemistry with are Sanders and Whitt because they actually work together. Worthy doesn't even bother to get in that extra work.

What this thread presupposes is: what if he isnt?

[Sgt Hulk 13,714]

10 games in and his deep balls are still 11 yards long.  Has he never fucking thrown a deep ball in his life how did he get a d1 grade. 

[naija 2,854]

He obviously has talent. Easy to see. What you can't see is what goes on in his head. The tale of the talented kid, who lacks the self-awareness to correct his mistakes is as old as time.

Don't know what they have to do; sit him down and explain the difference between NIL money and an NFL career? Paint a picture for him that HS ranking is not a guarantee of anything?

I posted in one of the other threads earlier in the year that I didn't like his choices from the time he became The Recruit, and that he honestly doesn't look like a kid that puts in even a modicum of work in the gym.

It's easy to pick on the beard and haircut, but those things are clearly about "the brand." This is really the wrong kid to give anything that he hasn't earned. QB #1 especially.
