If Cade starts next week…

Depth chart says Sully starts. UCLA better buckle the chin straps a little tighter.
 
Cade was one of the lowest rated QBs in all of college football…anyone wanting him to start or play for Iowa (barring injuries) is either a gambler betting against us or is a socialist who believes in a meritocracy vs performance based decision making process.
 
Can someone explain this to me? Stanzi hurt? McCabe? Not sure what either have to do with Petras and Hill.

The fact that Petras started a third season for KF and Iowa is beyond excuse and forgiveness. There’s really nothing more that needs said other than that.
I have this weird cross over with Petras/Stanzi's names. Actually, a lot of people. Or I remember the person and forget the name. It might be hard to believe but I'm not perfect.

It says we recruited bad quarterbacks and had a shitty offensive coordinator. McCabe deteriorated over the course of the season. We don't know where they stood when the season started. But I think McCabe should have been benched in the MSU game.

Since you are usually a good poster and not one of the crazies, I'll just ask you to step back and think about forgiveness or inexcusable conduct. You might be taking this topic a little too personally.

Seriously? Some of you folks are just over the top bitter and delusional about this QB thing. Kirk ****ed up the QB situation this year. There is no doubt about it. Had Cade not been injured, he'd still be QB1. We all know that too. With all of this said and acknowledged, it is truly out of Kirk's hands at this point. He doesn't operate in a vacuum and forces outside of his control, the administration, the fanbase, and the rest of the team wouldn't stand for it. He's stubborn as ****. He's not completely out of his mind however and understands the ramifications of taking such an action. It would likely end his career. It would be THAT catastrophic.
Plus, Kirk lets his Offensive Coordinator/QB make the call in regards to who starts at QB. You’re nuts if you think otherwise.

So... I'm nuts, but tell me how you are so certain of this. I'm at least as confident that Cade was only playing because that is what Kirk wanted. What I am certain of is that there is no way possible that these 2 men, one of them a former QB and head coach and longtime OC who has coached QB's, and a 69 year old FBS coach have watched Cade and Sully practice together and play in games for the last six months and agreed that "Yup, Cade is the guy that should be leading this offense.". I am very confident that that didn't happen. If you believe that happened, then you have a much lower opinion of their knowledge and ability to evaluate QB's than I do, because it isn't close and I don't believe it ever was.

McCabe didn’t have an Offensive Coordinator since he was a Basketball player. #15 in your program.

KF is on record multiple times saying that while they discuss starting QB as an offensive staff, he has final say. That’s not some sort of state secret.

I get it and I can relate. I called McNamara “Cade McNown” for a year and half. Getting old sucks. I just didnt know WTH was going on with that post between Stanzi, McCabe, Hill…. Now it’s a little more clear.

I didn’t take anything personally, except confusing Petras with Stanzi. That’s inexcusable IMO and should at least be a one month self ban.
 
I.e. not show up for the Nebraska game? Mass email Beth Goetz? Poop on his lawn?

Well, I can see where that confusion might merit some punishment. I'm eating anti-anxiety meds today so that will need to wait. That name thing finally resulted in my chief lieutenant just stand right next to me and whispering or pointing to the names of the next two or three people coming up.

Wow. I don't think you'll find a lot of argument. You don't tolerate opposing opinions well.


Demonstrated abilities... Sounds like performance based.
