normally i appreciate what you post, but this is by far the stupidest [deleted] thing youve ever posted.... from what ive heard our walk-ons are better then him. Not to mention Preston is probably going to be ahead of him on the depth chart come august. have a whiskey my man.
edit: we had walk-ons working 3rd string while Kaiser was playing scout team
When was the last time we had a qb start for 3 or even 4 years? It seems like forever that we have had a qb for 1 or 2 years and then they quit, get replaced or whatever. Should be interesting with KP having the experience that we haven't had for a while.

i believe ramon flanigan tooks snaps back there for around 9 years.
As long as JJ is here, Kp will be the QB. He's on pace to break nearly every passing record in school history. He's already won 12 games as a starter, led 2 teams to bowl games (was the MVP and won one of them) led a team to a conference championship game, and all at the ripe old age of 19. I believe JJ has his QB and will develop him by playing through the tough times.
If JJ leaves, remember Kp has a redshirt year coming, i wouldn't be surprised if JJ, Morrison, and Kp make it a package deal.
Uh yeah, you're right. Never said it did. My point is a D1 player can stay D1 and not lose eligibility if he has a red-shirt year available. For example, a 2 year player can transfer and use his red-shirt year as the sit out year, and still have 2 years eligibility. Got it? Someone who has already been red-shirted will lose a year unless they go to D1AA ( like Bo did).
If you're going to be fair in judging Padron, you've got to first determine if his receivers are getting open. And what kind of routes they're running.
When E. Sanders was here, he was always open, or working to get open. Did we have that guy this year?
If KP is staring down receivers and holding the ball too long, does the offense have a good "safety valve" option - a back or someone running a short drag route that KP can dump the ball off to?
A guy behind me was screaming "Go Vertical!" after every play during the AFB, yet it seemed like we started clicking when Padron was able to hit underneath routes and roll out for passes to the sideline.
Vertical is not always the answer. There's no shame in dink-and-dunk if that's what it takes to move the chains. You guys who study our offense, does Padron have an easy "dump-off pass" option on most plays, or is everyone 20-30 yards downfield?

Beasley appeared to be the short-yardage pass option much of the time this year. And Line, too, if KP had to scramble.
