I like ISU. I hope they win the conference. I have no reason to think we are going to get in the way this week.

what I notice most is the energy and interaction with the team from these new QBs. Rose wasn’t just amped, he also shared it with his team mates. He was fully engaged with his teammates and trying to energize them. That’s what you need in a QB.

Wilson seems to stand off alone a lot. I don’t see him celebrating or collaborating with his teammates.

Cam was very noticeable in how he used to do that and even did it in the first game of this season. But I also noticed he stopped hanging out after he got hurt. he stood on the sideline usually talking with one guy, not really seeming concerned with what was happening on the field.

To me, based on my limited observation…it seems like this is what distinguishes a lot of our play. Is the QB out there leading the guys together and bringing energy to the group so they play with intensity and passion…or is he just there to do his mechanical part.

Rose seems to have it. His skill, well we need to see more of him. Wilson has some tools..and as a Freshman a lot of room to grow. But we need to see a leader who is grabbing his guys by the shoulders and inspiring them to play hard. Who does that…that is what will matter most.

Whoever it is it really needs to be someone from the outside. One thing I think has bit us in the butt too many times is the insular keep it in the family thing KW has going on. I’m all for loyalty but we need someone who isn’t home grown. The single greatest get we’ve ever had that transformed our entire program was Urban Meyer. We are unlikely to see another one of him. But we won’t even get close if we keep hiring old friends from inside the state.

Cam and Brant were both studs. Amazing talents. But yes if 2022 had been the end I think our focus on rebuilding would have been dramatically more effective.

I have hated the late night games but if it were at 8:30 then when I give up all hope by halftime I could go to sleep.

As it is now I’ll have to watch the entire thing.

I have mixed feelings about this.

[RUUTES]

The only positive is there are only 2 games left. I’d be even more positive if it were just over at this point.

IW is not our worst qb of all time. He’s probably our youngest rawest True freshman we’ve been starting of all time though.

[RUUTES]

same reason we haven’t been using Ryan more…cuz…things and stuff.

Really it’s pointless to point to one position or person because it’s clear we’re in complete meltdown on Offense.

We don’t have the O designed around anyone, we don’t leverage our players effectively, and we have no identity. Singer and Bernard are playing for all they are worth and the coaches seem to content to use them up and burn them out.

Why do we throw for 15-20 all the time when we need 5-7? Why do we keep running up the middle into a stacked line when its clear the D is just waiting for it?

Because the O is a mess. We have our temp OC. We have our Freshman QB. We have a lot of 2-3rd stringers out there…and we have a team full of mercs. Welcome to the new world of CFB.

That 4th quarter made me a bit bitter. Sorry.

[RUUTES]

O-line is not getting it done but even when it does we don’t have a QB with field awareness. He’s a freshman still looking like a freshman. Maybe next year he’ll be better but right now every time they give him 5 seconds he is looking for 7 and that makes any Oline look bad.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer group of scumbags
