I just don't care for Stet as a person, he seems like a "me first" kinda guy.

lolwut?! The guy who: came in as a PWO, left and came back when we were pretty desperate after JF left, was told that he was never going to start for us, came off the bench to save our butts in 2020 and played until he was sidelined with an injury, was told again that he was 3rd string all offseason, only to get thrust into the starting role and save our butts again all the way to a natty?

Just confirming... That's the guy you think is "me first"?

He has a chip on his shoulder, absolutely... And justifiably so IMHO. With that said, sounds like he may have been partying and celebrating last year a little too much so a message was sent, and based on practice reports, also received. That's great news for us, as I just don't want someone else being given the job by default... If someone other than Stet takes the job, I want them to have to claw it from his hands.

This exactly. I want Bennett to be at his very best, because if somebody does beat him out for first string, it means we are a better team.

I just don't see what is "unlikeable" about Bennett. I will get behind whichever QB our coaching staff deems is best, whether it is Bennett, Carson Beck or Brock Vandegriff.

I guess I'll just never understand why people cannot accept our coaches decisions on starting personnel. A player is as good as he shows in practice and on the field....not what a ranking shows while they are in high school, or what we dream in our heads they are like.
