Eason could be back practicing today

I love Fromm. Think the kid is a great leader/motivator and he's gained some invaluable experience the past 3 games.

But only a fool would say that he gives us a better chance at winning out than Eason. Let's hope we have Eason practicing all week.. Grantham is coming after that arse. He would love nothing more than to f* us up at home at night.

Malkom Parrish too apparently.

This one is really needed.

Really hope Eason comes back and performs well.

Would fricking hate to see him struggle and lose a close game.

Yeah that's gonna be a big piece added back

I'd love to see Fromm get a little zone read option action where he actually keeps the ball every now and then. That play was open vs ND, but he always handed it off. He and Chubb need to work on the hand off/keep, though. No fumbles vs MSU.

We ran that play so many times, and the qb keep was wide open 80% of the times we ran it. HST I wouldn't be surprised if coach told Fromm to give it every time. Because if he had kept and gotten hurt, we all know what would have happened...

Eason still knows much more playbook, but now he'll have to make the throws to stay in the game when he gets in. Before it didn't matter how he performed, he was the QB.

Well, he showed little, if any, improvement from the end of the year into the spring game and had the same issues the first game. Just what has he been doing all summer, etc., besides playing pretty boy on a boat? Its been discussed on here before that Eason's work ethic isn't what Fromm's is.

I've been pleased with Fromm, but I still just can't shake the nervous feeling of having a TFr qb for the 2nd year in a row. He's done an alright job all things considered, but he's still only faced 1 "real" team in his college career. Eason has a full year experience and has played against SEC defenses which Fromm has not. Fromm has also looked fairly good this year due to our much improved WR play, improved running game, and a lights out defense, none of which Eason had last year especially early on. Put Eason in Fromm's place and I don't see how we're markedly worse, but we have the potential to be a good bit better.

I still would like to see what Eason has done to improve since last year. I don't think we have a large enough sample size to know for sure yet. He'll probably be rusty, though, and hopefully the timing with the receivers won't be too messed up from not practicing for a few weeks.

ETA: I'm still on board the Fromm train. I think he's going to keep improving even faster than Eason did last year.

I mean I can't answer that other then Eason still has a ton of experience over Fromm.

I think Fromm will be the better college QB once its all said and done, but Eason has experience and a godamn cannon arm.

I think you at least let him get some series in and see how he looks.
