let’s all be honest here and call it what it is. There still are horrible humans in our fanbase who can’t bring themselves to pull for Stetson and most of that subset are secretly hoping for his failure.


I haven't seen one bit of that anywhere. The only thing even remotely close is people like you that are claiming there's some subset of people that hate stetson and try to will it into reality.


It's mind boggling that grown adults can't understand that it's a perfectly ok and valid opinion that stetson was helped out last year by the best defense we've ever fielded, and we may have a little harder time this year on offense without that help. That doesn't mean that people are pulling against our own QB or rooting for him to fail.

It’s not that though. It’s more than that. Having healthy awareness of a situation is smart. I’ll use this thread to post stuff I am seeing.

Many on here were down on Stetson all last season. "He can't throw deep! He isn't accurate! He's too short!" Well, mostly that is true. If he can't throw the 60 yard bomb and hit a WR in stride, then he throws it short or wide and completes a 50 yarder. But he had a 65% completion rate and 10 yards per attempt. Even as the wins kept coming many in here were putting Stet down and calling for JT. Yet Stet kept winning and the team rallied behind him.
Had JT been the QB all year I doubt he would have gotten the hugs and love Stet got from the team at the end of the NC game.
