cmb23 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I'm glad he's gone before the season and it's out of the way so they can focus on '06. It would be bigger news/distraction if it happened 4-5 games into the season. I do, however, have a few concerns: 1) Has Beau Davis learned where the training table is yet? Put some meat on that boy!!! 2) Not that Beck was an overly-capable backup (shown against K-State), but if something happens to Taylor...can we really expect much out of Ganz or Davis? 3) The biggest concern is the future. For '07 we were SUPPOSED to have 2 4/5-star recruits (Beck and Freeman) with a year or two of watching, learning and practicing under their belt battling for the starting job. Now they are both gone. My guess is that JUCO coaches are waiting by the phone for NU to start calling. Again, I tend to play the devil's advocate....but I believe it is a more realistic view to help balance out those fans who think that anyone who puts on a red jersey is a star. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 1) XD 2) True, Beck was something like 1/6 for 21 yards with an int, but he presided over our game-winning drive and delivered what I'd consider to be a clutch pass for a young guy hurled into so much pressure. I don't want to see Davis quarterbacking again, but Ganz is kind of an unknown right now. 3) We'll have Ganz, Witt. Depending on how Ganz progresses, we may not need or even want a juco.

I'm trying to remember the KState game that beck was thrust into. If I recall correctly, it was his int that allowed kstate to score and take the lead toward the end of the game. Yes he was a factor in the key drive where he completed one pass and was helped out by a pass interference penalty. Nothing too impressive, but he did get the job done in the end. Ganz is a big unknown. I watched him during the spring game and wasn't real impressed. He did look mobile on his feet, but nothing spectacular. Although, he was playing with the 2nd team against our #1 D. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Give him a chance if anything Beck wasn't any better as far as I'm concerned!!! Quote Link to comment
NU fan in Denver Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Exactly, Beck had shown nothing more than Ganz. If he is the backup now, I say get him some pt these first 2 games. Quote Link to comment

ttheKid1*18 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Give him a chance if anything Beck wasn't any better as far as I'm concerned!!! Beck showed nothing last year and we are in the same situation now. If Ganz can just get some snaps this year, then I will be confident, because he has been in this offense for a while.

BIGREDIOWAN Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Exactly why I said that Ganz knows the system better than Beck did so I'm not too worried!!! Quote Link to comment

Why wasn't he starting then. Man him and that 10% competion rate should have ad him in NYC for the Heisman. We worship you Beck. Not really. Quote Link to comment
teamriot38 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 On Harrison's facebook account, he says that he's gonna transfer to Louisville. Just thought that was weird. I thought he'd go to South Florida. Quote Link to comment
