HT, I don’t understand your position. Kirby went above and beyond to give a second string, Freshman QB playing time. Even though he was behind a future 1st round pick. With the latest developments, I’m starting to question him. Few players in college football have ever been given so much PT outside of mop up duty. I guess he has a lot of people in his ear. Now we have attorneys who promise rules don’t apply to you...

I guess the upside is Fromm will win the Heisman next year. So that’s good.

What's there to understand? His entire year was wasted. The only thing Kirby went above and beyond on was putting him in to run a play and then immediately taking him out, probably to placate him. Numerous analysts, including Greg McElroy said Fields was being misused and the 1 play thing was useless. One of the ESPN analysts during a game said the same thing. I can't remember who but I distinctly remember the remark.

This generation is lost on me. The guy ahead of you ran off another 5* who was the f’n starter. You come in, get lots of practice reps and a chance to play, but don’t win the job. If you weren’t willing to risk sitting on the bench for two years, why sign with GA?

I don’t really fault Fields for transferring. I fault the way he is going about it. Eason will always be a DGD for leaving with a little class.
