For all those guys who talked smack on Will Hastings all year

It's probably about having DW as QB and Mike Williams and Deon Cain eating up defenders down field too.

No one had an issue with Will Hastings getting passes thrown his way until he didn't catch them


If Hastings started getting open more then catching the ball, he'd be a hero

I don't think Hastings is as bad as people think, he just didn't do anything to show people he was good either.

The story of TSteve's drops this year was greatly exaggerated. He wasn't Larry Fitzgerald, but he was having a solid year pre injury

Agreed.

Hasting suck. can't run routes or get open. It is very racist of you to compare him to Renfro just because they are both of the honkie.

When did he get injured?

Sometime during the Arkansas game. He missed both Ole Miss/Vandy games LINK and never seemed to get back up to speed after that

He was averaging ~70ypg before Arkansas

Hastings could have been effective weapon if used for the right set of plays with the right supporting personnel packages on the field. he is a very dynamic player in space. wasnt put in too many situations with a possibility to succeed. a good coach will beat your arse with a team full of Will Hastings.

Did you even watch the game or was your old arse asleep? You can't possibly be this dumb

As an athlete, Hastings can't lick the bottom of Renfrow's cleat. Literally the only reason Renfrow didn't get recruited is because he played QB in HS in a wishbone offense so nobody knew what he could do.

Renfrow will be drafted. Hastings is still just a backup kicker who cant even kick anything except onside kicks and was used as a WR in a handful of gimmick plays

Once teams realized we would actually throw to Hastings, he got treated like a rag doll.
Renfrow ripped the best defense in CFB a new one 2 years in a row when everybody knew he was getting the ball and now he probably has the most TDs in the short history of the playoffs

Hastings couldn't play WR full time at Samford and you're trying to compare him to a guy that's the next Wes Welker and trying to say the only difference is coaching?

Im not even trying to be mean, but this makes the all-time list of dumbest things I've ever read on a sports message board. You're a joke of a football fan

Jesus. Odd thing to get so emo about.

Honestly if we had consistently decent QB play Hastings would be productive. He has some quickness and is not a bad route runner. Those drill numbers indicate that he does have some athletic ability, but he needs to be put in a better position to succeed.

He has size limitations but he could be effective if we had any semblance of a short/intermediate passing game. Unfortunately our coaches insist on vertical routes that don't utilize his ability. Every player has strengths/limitations but you can't just draw up fly routes and corner fades for a 5'9 slot receiver and expect good things to happen.
