That actually wasn’t your point at all lol. Your point was that it’s possible we tried to get a transfer and failed, and that this is a possible explanation for having 0 QBs. Here’s a runndown of the conversation

Damn. I had no idea. That guy is on another level, only Smith is even comparable. He sort of had a goofy throwing motion like someone throwing a ball that was too big for their hand but it clearly didn’t hold him back much.

I can’t say otherwise. He’s well well before my time so I’m unequipped to speak about him with any depth.

Technically what Cam did was not unprecedented. TCU, a former G5 like us, had already won the Big 12 several years prior(2014). Alex Smith led The Original BCS Busters. A distinction none but Utah can ever claim.

The stats will tell you Huntley is better as well. That and the fact the Huntely is an NFL quarterback and frankly, Cam’s never going to achieve that. I think it’s clear that Huntley is technically the better QB.
But based on rings, which does matter, Cam has a resume none in our history can match. But it’s also short sighted to think Cam did…[Read more]

“Not sure misled is the term, but it’s clear the camps are on different pages”
I can buy that this is possibility for most issues. But for a disconnect to have propagated for almost a year on pure unfortunate happenstance just doesn’t seem to make sense.

Maybe red tennis balls for my walker and a Life Alert that just plays the fight song.

This might give our NIL circles chances to build strategic partnerships with organizations like the Golden Corral and Johnson & Johnson. I want a Ute branded weekly pill organizer.

“It’s passed”
Right but these problems were fairly apparent to most of the fanbase long before they had passed and those people called that out. That’s what’s frustrating. How can it be that people from the outside looking in would have made better decisions by simply using common sense?

That actually isn’t an explanation though for one simple fact. We continued to prepare with Cam as if Cam would be playing. He practiced through week 5 and the offensive scheme is still his. If the problem was simply that we couldn’t get a transfer then we would’ve prepared a QB from our roster and we didn’t. Cam was expected to return imminently…[Read more]

I noticed the shift in the team in the team as well during the Oregon State game. You could see it in the tenor of the team I actually typed about it in the live chat here, saying that it appeared that Cam had lost the locker room and got flamed for it, some here may be able to attest (eagle mountain later insinuated that I was drunk and I was…[Read more]

Surprisingly I got upvoted for it. I think people with the landscape of facts are all reaching the same conclusion.
It defies logic that our coaching staff would not prepare any starting QB whatsoever. Therefore: they must not have had good information on Cam’s actual state of recovery.
Now this doesn’t excuse them from having no plan B…[Read more]

The personality types that refuse to see any wrong in certain authority figures are so funny. I kind of feel sorry for them tbh.
Let’s hear your flimsy rationalization for the the fact that we also didn’t prepare our backup QBs whatsoever.

The idea that a QB room must be bereft of challenge for anyone to join it is the silliest idea propagated by a bunch of dweebs. If you’re a QB trying to make your way to the NFL and you don’t think you can beat out a guy that was never going to make it in the NFL anyway and is also on one knee then you weren’t the guy we needed anyway.

True. Even if you assume that he was misled about Cam’s injury it’s still absolutely idiotic to have no plan B. And it’s now clear that this is the case.

“Do you think that if Whitt knew that the decision was going to come down to CR surgeon or that he would have gone along with this ? My Guess is Cam didn’t tell him anything”
I indicated the same above but I’m really concerned that this is not only plausible, but almost feels like the simplest explanation.
I refuse to believe that any FBS f…[Read more]

“The second part is that they knew all this back in Jan, yet continued to gameplan around Rising.”
Yep. I’ve been saying it for weeks, this is either devastating incompetency or someone was lying about how bad their injury was.

It’s still mind boggling that they absolutely refused to prepare their actual starting quarterbacks for almost half the season even if you assume Plan A was Rose.

“The risks we took to get Cam in this season were worth it”
We didn’t take a risk, we gave away the house, there was no possibility of Cam starting these prior weeks and we now know that for sure. the risks were not worth it because for something to be worth it it has to have yielded some kind of value in the end and we now know it hasn’t. We…[Read more]
