Just wondering....

We are gonna find out.

The frustrating thing to me, and I mentioned this, is that when the offense moved against Baylor, it was Romo running the same offense that Phillips ran the last five games of 2003. I would much rather have Phillips back there than Romo, if only because Phillips might be here next year.

BLOG, Chris is certainly athletic and he'll be a good addition next season. But Romo is way fast than CP. No way CP gets to the endzone on the TD play scored by Romo. Nobody even touched him.

not so sure about that. Romo runs well, but I doubt better than Phillips in game conditions. Phillips jukes very well and actually breaks tackles.

All of your points are exactly the reason I feel SMU football is in deep trouble. I'm not in favor of a quarterback controversy, but to have a controversy you must have more than one doing positive things. Maybe it is time to follow the UT mold and chant Phillips name the first time the offense flounders the same way you heard Major. I'm all for supporting the coach and players, but I'm sick of being a doormat. Let's go Ponies!

Whatever you do don't shout onto the field for the change of quarterbacks, I thought someone was going to kill me for shouting at Bennett to not put Eckert into the game in the second half.

No doubt the Phillips situation is very puzzling. The #28th ranked dual-threat QB in the nation with offers from Arkansas and Kansas St. chooses SMU. He starts the final five games of his freshman year and shows nice promise with very little talent around him. He gets injured in the second or third game of 04 against TCU to end his season and a year later, supposedly healthy, he’s third string behind two JUCO QBs who come to SMU without any other D-I offers. Then these two JUCO transfers go 9 of 27 for 108 yards against one of the worst programs in the nation and Phillips still isn’t even mentioned for the starting job?? I can’t explain that......I wish someone would.

Because Bennett has an obvious problem evaluating players and who and when to play them.
