Looks like Stratton gets the go against Maryland.

I don't think that Cade can lift his arm above his head anymore. He throws everything sidearm.
Cade can't give us the threat to make plays with his feet ala Sullivan and Cade knows this. He's been injured enough so he probably is just going to call it a day. He's been a wreck since fall camp last season.
We're gonna be running the wildcat with Wetjen by the end of the game............
I watched that. They were very "careful" in their comments. They made it sound like Cade quit on the team but they didn't want to say that.
If he his healthy and KF wanted him to go and he didn't want to, that will likely close the sad chapter on Cade.
I think that's very possible. The body can only take so much and the brain listens.
Or maybe head trauma is not worth it? I mean 3 more games max for him anyway. Most don't want him out there. I guess we will find out in a week for Senior Day at home huh?
Could very well be. But it might have been a nice thing to at least stick around to backup and support the other guys.
This is assuming the rumors that he’s quit the team are true.
I'm a mathematician and I've found these balls to be 100% accurate 60% of the time.
If that's the answer, then he's right. He can be physically able to go but you can't play of you're afraid of getting hurt - especially in the head.
Not to mention if he reads social media, why risk his future* if you're not wanted?
* Future meaning something other than a pro QB,
Stack the box, stack the box. Scheme. Scheme. I love football forum buzz words.
Setting aside for the moment whether or not McNamara is finally at this point saying he's had enough, the entire mess with the QB situation is owned by Kirk.
He has completely failed in management of that position for multiple consecutive seasons, and other years throughout his tenure.

Well that's final...the genius from SD has spoken. We're you pushing the jab to doc?
It did seems different to me in a positive way. That of which I hadn’t seen from an Iowa QB in awhile.
Also, in reading between the lines, I think Kirk is really open to the idea to giving this kid a shot. Almost like telling Lester via the interview that he wants to go with JS.
Best news I’ve heard all week about Iowa football. LFG Action Jackson!
Um.... As we now know, he's only going with Stratton because there isn't anybody left. He's the only guy left in the room.
I know Cade is a transfer, but he doesn't seem like the type of guy to quit midseason.
I mentioned this before, but this is exactly what some guys from Michigan said he would do if he was forced to compete for the job.
I suspect that.....deep down, Cade really isn't a Hawkeye. I'm sure I'll get grief from some folks, but I'd bet he really doesn't give two $hits about The University of Iowa and the football program. Easy for me to see him being done.
This guy might have been prophetic.

Love to see that off and on throughout the game. Also QB sneaks with a TE. That would be fun.
It was already hell freezing over to see Sullivan go in, never in my life did I think I would see that
He looks good so far….glad that he is not buried on the LB depth chart….😉
Walk on starts 4/4, now 5/6.
How is the possibly best QB in program a 4th string walkon?
The QB coaches haven't had enough time to fu’ck him up yet?

Who gives a shit as long as he delivers the ball to a spot on time? Throwing motion doesnt matter at all.
Touch and timing matter.
Making good decisions quickly matters.
Not so fast my friend! Shaggy looking very good so far….😎Tim Lester after calling a pass play tomorrow.
Listening to a podcast and their point is that Iowa shouldn’t waste a bunch of money on a QB in the portal because they have so many other positions to fill. Better to spread the money to some defensive players and an OL or two. Valid point.
