Depth Chart for UCLA: Brendan Sullivan is QB1

That joke is not funny. The very idea is horrifying!

(you are joking, right?)
Of course. I was just ****ing with everyone who's still suggesting that Cade will ever be QB1 again. That ship sailed as soon as Sully showed everyone that he was the guy.

Now you're talking. The team has been so much sharper, even the D has picked up. The QB isn't cool, he's in command.
 
It's kinda funny watching people getting mad over something that hasn't happened and won't happen. Sully is starting against UCLA and I'm going to bet that, barring injury, he'll be starting the remainder of the year.

It will be good to have a backup with considerable experience.

I don’t want Cade starting, but would feel more comfortable with him as the backup. Compared to an unknown in Stratton.

Cade probably hasn't cleared concussion protocol yet and will on either the 1 or 2 slot when he does. That is the real question, which slot?
If Sully has another real positive game he will stay the starter. Lester will just tell Kirk that Sully is the most productive, has a stronger arm, and perhaps is more accurate.

They've both already known all of this for months. The difference is that now everyone else knows it too. Sully is and will remain QB1.

Cade not a captain this week.

Interesting.

Do the players vote each week who the captains are going to be?

Is this an official passing of the torch, cementing that Sullivan is the starter from here on out?

Probably should not make too much of it since it appears that McNamara is still recovering from his concussion and it would make sense to have an active player serve as a captain.

In August and early sept the word was that Sully was not all that accurate and I read that here and from people who said they were at practices. He looks pretty good now so I agree with your conclusion. Plus even back in the OSU game I wanted Sully in earlier to see what he could do. I am all for getting players in games to see how the compete and perform

You don’t typically have a second string QB serve as captain.

I suspect it's because he's not making the trip out West. He was still a captain last weekend, but it was a home game.

I was just typing something similar when your post dropped in.

I don’t know much about concussions, but if you’re still suffering from frequent headaches (or having other side effects), getting on a plane and flying across the country might not be the best idea.

Last week Cade was voted a captain.
 
"We're willing to accept"? Are WE hiring the HC now? As long as Iowa keeps winning 8-9 games a year he's not getting fired, that is a fact. So is that there's no one on this site that has anything to say about changing that regardless of the delusions that get posted on this site.
How true. Internet posters can get carried away. They can't fire anyone, can't hire replacements and can't bring in portal players.

Among other things.
 
I'd like to see Jackson Stratton get a few series'...
lets see what he can do.

if everything I've learned from these message boards is correct... Stratton is the better quarterback
so i'm imagining your scenario. first quarter the offense struggles. kirk smirks and replaces sullivan with stratton to spite hecklers. TD, TD, TD, TD. 28-10 half-time at the rose bowl.
Reporter to Kirk: Wow coach, that was amazing. Sullivan who has been so explosive the last two games wasn't himself today but your fifth string qb ignited the offense. What made you pull sullivan so quickly?
Kirk (shell shocked): The defense and kicker have kept ucla at bay. We are hoping to get back Cade soon.

The only time I want to see Stratton is if we are in a blow out
