i recall another AU QB who was hated as much as Arnold - Ben Leard

he was given a chance with a new offensive coaching staff and suddenly he was pretty damn good

of course the limited portal window kinda screws up any second chances for redemption at your current school

Leard was not scared to death to throw the ball. That’s kind of an important trait in a QB.

And Daniels' floor (that we can know so far) is 3 points against a shitty 2-5 Kentucky football team.

All im saying is if they arent gonna try Deuce, Arnold is the better of two awful choices.

Did Daniels score in the last 6 quarters while I was using the bathroom? Arnold is no pro, but at least we would have a small chance of scoring on the first drive.

Creative play calling can make all the difference, not just the QB. Never know how much Freeze was holding them back. We about find out….

so what was going on in practice / QB rooms that had not one but TWO college QB's apparently scared to throw downfield to open receivers in a game? I guess both could have the same mental flaw coming in, but it seems fishy.

Daniels threw the ball more than Arnold. He just sucks at passing

This is befuddling to me. Sometimes we script and get the first touchdown, then a disastrous next eight series. Sometimes we have a week off, a whole week of preparation.....and have three absolutely disastrous plays and punt.

There seems to be no planning what so ever for adjustments from the defense. We seem totally confused as if its a shock when they adjust.

That is coaching.

And I cant believe we have been through 8-10 qbs and they all have a problem functioning. Is it them or the coaching.

the worst part about it is, how broken is Arnold?


The butterfly eagle hand gestures he did looked pretty dumb.

For most of the Kentucky game it looked to me like the ball barely got to them before the defense.


And wasn't the Oline ranked around the Top10 cominf into the year?

We heard the same shite about walker white. “He spins the ball unlike any one else in the room.” He is a bench warmer in Waco

To be fair their QB, Sawyer Robertson, is pretty good. Almost 3000 yards passing and 26 TDs to 7 INTs

The only hope is the first half of the UGA game. Everything clicked and resulted in total domination. Then the second half happened.

I think Walker is 4th out of 5 QBs on the depth chart.

Freeze's eye for a QB was somewhat lacking.
