  1. First i would like to state that i really think i could have done what Lee did at QB on saturday. Yes he managed the offense BLAH BLAH BLAH, but half of us on this board could have handed it off to the HB and made the completions he did.

     

    :facepalm: So you and half the people out here could have completed 5 or 9 passes with 1 TD against the OU defense? :bs: I say not one person on this board, in front of 85,000 people, a national TV audience, against the OU defense could have made that TD throw or any of the other throws that were made. Cody Green wasn’t making any throws and he is the “savior”. :ahhhhhhhh:moreinteresting

     

    Just because the throws can be made on NCAA 2010 doesn’t mean they can be made in REAL LIFE. :koolaid2:

     

    For years we havent been able to land a quality QB with the exception of Green

     

    I was wondering what you base “landing a quality QB” off of. :dunno If you go by Rivals rankings then in 2002 Curt Dukes was a 4 star (#9 Dual Threat), 2005 Harrison Beck was a 4 Star (#3 Pro Style – RR 5.9), in 2007 Zac Lee was a 4 Star (RR – 5.9) and in 2009 Cody Green was a 4 Star (#6 Dual Threat – RR 5.8). So if you base “landing a quality QB” off of Rivals recruiting rankings then Dukes was similar to Green and going off of their Rivals Ranking (RR) Beck and Lee were better signees.

     

    DISCLAIMER: Star rankings are not an exact science nor do I claim them to be. I only posted them as a reference point in conjunction with the statement “landing a quality QB”. I was confused on the criteria, I didn’t know if it was recruiting sites or if it was based off of mediocre play against mediocre teams, because really these are the only two things we have to try and base an opinion on the GREATNESS THAT IS CODY GREEN.

     

    And how many of those QB's have panned out smart ****... Those aren't quality quarterbacks except Green, since we havent been able to see him. I know you haven't played football in your life so you live yours through huskerboard.. And yes i know i could have made that pass to a wide the F*** open reciever. So have fun on your computer in the basement of your moms house...

  2. I'm with Michael on this one. Eddie George over Tommie was rediculous. Then we had Woodsen over Peyton Manning 2 years later. It's a popularity contest and they get it right about 10 percent of the time.

     

    The Big Ten used to be the medias favorite in those days and now it has seemed to change to the SEC. Can anyone say TEBOW.

  3. Lee will start against OU. I think. lol

     

    I think you have to start Lee. The coaches have a responsibility to keep the morale of the players up. It has been said that Zac did a great job coming off of the bench and people like him in that role. Great but those ideas almost scream that we know Cody is going to need "relieved" at some point so why start a guy that we know is going to have to be pulled.

     

    Also, Lee was on the field when we beat OU and he played well coming off of the bench, but do we know he would again. After beating OU and handling or managing the offense the way he did to get it done, sitting him on the bench to start the next game would have a greater chance of demoralizing him that motivating him.

     

    It is a fact that most athletes at most levels want to play. This is not baseball where the relievers or closers are an integral part of the game, this is football obviously and in football, most cases there is not the use of a reliever so to speak.

     

    I truly think if everyone would sit back and take the likes and dislikes of any of the given QB's out of the equation, they would come to the same conclusion which is

     

     

    our Offense is not so good with either QB, BUT, our Defense is great and we need an offense that doesn't lose us games but is managed in such a way that it minimizes mistakes and capitalizes on the mistakes the other teams make because of our defense.

     

    When you add that up, i truly believe that there isn't any option other than Lee.

     

    Does he run as well as Cody, no

    Does he pass as well as Cody, yes or at least equal

    but MOST IMPORTANTLY, he gets us into the right plays and the right calls a vast majority of the time and much more so than Green and right now with our offense and the state is in, that is key

     

    First i would like to state that i really think i could have done what Lee did at QB on saturday. Yes he managed the offense BLAH BLAH BLAH, but half of us on this board could have handed it off to the HB and made the completions he did.

     

    Second, the thing that irks me about Lee is how he gets so scared in the pocket. They should just let SUH hit him fullout in practice one time, so he knows that no hit will hurt worse than that one the rest of his life. I wouldnt have a problem with Lee if he didnt look so scared. Atleast Green steps up in the pocket like a Pro would.

     

    Third, Lee shouldnt even be playing D1 ball. For years we havent been able to land a quality QB with the exception of Green, and i am a firm believer that Lee will never be capable to play at this level. The Sunbelt Conference might be his best choice if he ever makes it.

     

    The coaches should rotate the two in and out during the game or atleast the second half of this game. If they use Lee, we really wont win out the rest of the season. I stand by that. He may not throw as many picks but when he gets sacked, its like a turnover for this team anyway..

  4. I agree with Irieboy, you cant tell me that the coaches didn't put two and two together and recruit this guy 80% because of the connection. The fact that Mack Brown didnt recruit andrew was rediculous, but then again they are Texas and they can recruit anyone in the state of Texas. Its pretty much their property.

  5. He must have just watched the Missouri game where McNiel caught that TD pass because otherwise we have used our FB's more in the passing game than our TE's

    :sarcasm

     

    Away from that i find it funny how about a month or two ago everyone was freaking out about this class. I was a little, but knew that we only had around 16 scholorships to give out and they would slowly come with time. I just wish we get hill and cooper from here on out because we really dont have alot of slots left. Maybe Cotton grey shirts and we lose one or two guys that committed awhile back, but hopefully the studs hurry up and commit!!

  6. Crick is also just a sophomore, guys.

     

    Like people havnet stated that already..

     

    He will have to stay two more years. Being next to Suh is like Pippen playing with Jordan. Not the best simile but maybe you will be my point. I want to see his potential after the D-line looses Suh. To early to tell.

    :include

  7. dude, maybe he will be a good player. Its not like some of the lower rated recruits have never stepped up and played like champs. bring him on. lets see what hes got. hes probably been to plenty of games, so he knows what it means to be a husker.

     

    Go find a 0 star recruit that has made it into the NFL. Knowing what it means to be a husker doesnt just make athleticism appear. This is a bust

     

    :facepalm:

     

     

    Ummmm, every single player in the NFL before about 1994.

     

    ha wow i hope you love having classes with 0 star players!!

    :facepalm:

  9. this game wont we as close as everyone is writing about on here.. i see our offense coming out of a slump. we will throw the ball for more than 20 something years (guess) this game, and we can only run better on a defense that is far worse than OU's. I see us getting three turnovers on defense, two being picks, and the other from Reesing loosing the ball along with his head after SUH and CRICK sandwich him!!

     

    We roll after good first drive and first have, rolling 27-13, the first game i am confident about our offense with whatever QB. Watson will pull his head out for once!
