No, I witnessed 3 seasons of Nix against premiere SEC talent, and watched 55-60% completion percentage.

That's fine, but unless you aren't paying any attention at all, NONE of these guys that we are currently starting in place of him are even going to do or accomplish what he was able to do, as flawed as it may have been. So what is your point? We're better off by playing inferior players and losing more games than Nix ever would have lost? What?

Nix actually won some SEC games in case you forgot. Who the hell is Robby Ashford or TJ Finley going to beat this season? We couldn't even "beat" Missouri, they literally just beat themselves. With this exact same OL and the same idiot HC, Nix beat Ole Miss, LSU, and Arkansas last season. He played well in all three of those games. He played well against MSU as well (we were up big with him) before he got hurt.

So again, what is your point? This team is currently on pace to win maybe 4-5 games with QB's not named Nix. Nix never did that, and it's largely the same roster. But please continue to spin yourself into believing that we're somehow better off that he left? Even arguing that he's "padding his stats against bad teams" is insulting considering that the guys that are currently playing here couldn't even do that against Mizzou and freaking San Diego State.

Magically, playing in a weaker conference, he’s doing better.

It's not "magically" - he also has a better supporting cast and coaching around him, and you are legit retarded if you think it's just a change in competition (what, BYU isn't a good team? Mizzou is a tougher opponent LOL?). Which means that he was actually victimized here and wasn't the "problem", as he had always been made out to be (I did it as well). The exact same issues are still present without Nix, except they're even more noticeable because he actually managed to play through it from time to time. The guys we currently have cant do that, I don't understand how that couldn't be any more clear.

For example, do we still believe that Nix "bails out of the pocket cause he's scared" after seeing this OL this year lol? All Robby Ashford can even do is hope that he can bail out and find open receivers on broken plays, or scramble for yards.
