Hornsby not leaving

Probably got emotional and overreacted online then the coaches talked him down

I still want Malik to take over after KJ. His ceiling is so high. Fortin doesn’t excite me

Pretty obvious he throws a better ball than KJ. I’m sure he’s nowhere near the athlete KJ is, but if he is marginally mobile, makes good decisions, and is accurate with the ball, he could be exactly what we need to make this offense work.

Fortin fits the mold more than any other QB for Briles. He usually doesn’t do the big shots. He can get you 5 yards with feet if needed and he looked really accurate with his intermediate passes if the WR could get separation that’s what Briles offense is based on. Just moving the chains 1-2 plays at a time. And going quickly while doing so.

I don't really care either way

This team has bigger problems than this kids playing time. It always has

He was 4-10 against the Bama backups. I’d prefer to see him against someone else before making that call, personally.

---

Sure, but then their backups are probably better than 80% of the conferences starters.

Also, a huge part of our run game being so successful is because of KJ’s abilities in that space.

---

Know what else makes for an effective run game? A competent and effective passing game.

quote:

Is it worth losing that to have slightly better passing?

---

I think the improvement may be much more than slight, but regardless, the formula for beating us might as well be written on the Jumbotron at each stadium. We are a one trick pony. Single up on our receivers and sell out to shut down the run and contain KJ. We have no answer.

---

I’m not so sure now that we’re past the two best defenses that we’ll face on our schedule.

---

And every remaining team is going to do what aTm and Bama have done, to varying degrees of success. This is a complete throwaway year if we don’t change something.

Fortin was/is a hired gun for one year

Maybe Hornsby can play in the secondary. Nobody else seems to want to.

I mean why not? They say they got to get him on the field somehow but refuses to give him snaps at WR OR backup quarterback. shite if youve "got to get him on the field" then put him on the damn field lol
