Just listened to the post game interviews with

I am usually in favor of a playing leaving early if it is really in his best interest. That said, it would be really dumb for JS to declare. He would probably be a 3rd or 4th round pick at best and very likely even worse than that. KJ on the other hand should go pro now.

JS has too much to improve in his mental game for anyone to sanely recommend he declare.

ETA: KJ can, should and will leave

JS is frustrating here down the stretch, but how easily some of you have forgotten our QB situation the preceding 3 years is pretty hilarious

I agree 100%. He is a huge improvement by any means since Nick Marshall. But, he is in no way ready to play in the NFL. No where even close

I would understand KJ going, although this draft is going to have a ton RB's. Stidham would be baffling, don't think he's ready for the NFL.

Scouts know that Stidham is one of the best in the country. They also know our offense is shite and making him look bad.

KJ should absolutely go. At worst he's a 3rd round pick but probably would go in 2nd round because he's the complete package. Can block, physical runner and can make catches out of the backfield

Stidham should absolutely return. He needs to improve at taking care of the football, reading blitzes and throwing deep balls against tight coverage. However, it just takes one team to fall in love with you & if there's someone out that that will take him in the 2nd-3rd round, might not be a bad decision

AU tho would be stuck with only 2 QBs on scholly next year if Stidham leaves. They would probably have to use one of the last spots on a project QB just to have 3 dudes on roster. Really hope Stidham decides to return

Stidham has horrible pocket presence. That is a huge knock on him when looking at his NFL potential.

Well our coaches are dumb and don't understand how to counter against pressure with quick short passes.

Yeah, as bad as JS played, the only reason we moved the ball and scored *at all* was his completing multiple 3rd and long completions.

BECAUSE WE WERE CONSTANTLY IN 3RD AND LONG SITUATIONS.

Jesus Christ, I thought I was watching Mike Shula call a Carolina Panthers game out there. Being a fan of both teams, sometimes I'm confused who copied who... Shula or Malzahn.
