as opposed to handing the keys to a 19 year old who hasn't been tackled in college? I think I'll just trust SF on this one over someone who hasn't seen anything.
Gebbia gone.
- Thread starter Bummerbry
- Start date
I 'saw' this as a potential reality, and was one of my hopes for TG to win out, though, having a AM that can beat out TG is the goal here, as TG just isnt under control in his run game like AM is, and that includes pocket barrier, where AM knows his escapability, not so with TG.
It simply is what we're going to see under this staff.
So what does any of this have to do with Gebbia leaving? Are you saying if they had played live that the outcome of the starters would have come out different?
SF should know better. For those of us players who had to earn everything (just like he did), this feels like a slap in the face. TO didn't let us wear green jerseys for a reason. He wanted to see what we'd do when the bullets were flying. All of us QBs were a heck of a lot better doing 7 on 7 than when Trev Alberts and Broderick Thomas were breathing down our necks.
Knowing how they play in practice, contact or not most likely wouldnt change anything.
But selfishly wanting contact for more surety, injury or not, only opens the door to, why did they allow contact on the qbs in practice?
And on and on.
This will not be the first and only time we see this, and those not used to the recruiting regimen,as painful as that can be, better get used to this newfound pain of losing potential qb starters, and for us, the better the qbs we lose, the better for us.
It is what it is.

Trev Alberts and Broderick Thomas didn't play at the same time. Broderick was gone a couple of years before Trev got here.
TO's qbs averaged 50% more carries than do SF's qbs.
Todays teams go with less contact in practice.
Thought I'd read us and bama have some of the most contact in todays cfb.

I normally would agree here, but he, like his family, work hard to be ahead of the curve, and is why his family has been as successful as theyve been.
Had he started this year, it may have changed things, it also may not have, but because he has the ability to plan ahead to his needs doesnt diminish him imo.
I bet we will not be seeing you around here Saturday night after Martinez dominates the game.
Ok, so our regimen is now contact, like you want.
Do the coaches stop how they do things if say TG leaves in the winter?
Too late to recruit a guy, maybe get a grad transfer, but again, those opportunities change from year to year, so, the coaches have to change also?
Did Milton take contact?
How about Mariota?
I will take what Frost is doing and his LONG history of national title stuff over your thoughts. I am 100 percent in support of a unanimous coaching staff picking one guy before a first game of the season.
Todays qbs have more options than ever.
Each of those options have to be covered by the coaching staff.
You bring in alot of qbs, the chips fall where they may.
This staff recruits more qbs than the last staff, which recruited more real qbs than the previous staff, and no, McCaffrey is NOT a reciever/safety, like weve seen.
Not until theres depth at qb would that ever happen, and our past staffs didnt even have depth and did so anyways.
No, a guy is a qb until they recruit a guy better than him, the staffs mantra, then they can be a wideout or a safety, til then, they are second or third string qbs, period, simply because they know what the hell theyre doing, unlike previous staffs.
Previous staffs seemed like they wanted to avoid this at all costs, and didnt recruit a real qb but once every 3-4 years.
You simply cant do that, then or now.
We are one injury from a tough season now, but this staff hasnt coached a game yet, but you can bet, what weve seen in the past wont be what we see going forwards, which includes seeing more qb departures, but real qb departures, that go on to qb at other decent schools.

You are REALLY overreacting here IMO. Do you:
1) really think Gebbia had earned it?
2) that Gebbia, a square peg in Frost’s scheme’s round hole with, honestly no more really significant experience was truly gonna be better?
3) should Masker been the one to start? He’s the one one with most and most recent game experience?
You really think that by choosing the best fit from among four QB’s with no significant experience and not the one that had a teeny bit of game experience is an insult to all Husker players who came before?
Or do you really just don’t like Frost?
Or do we give the staff a year to get the best players the most experience as soon as possible?
Martinez will have more experience than Gebbia in the coming two weeks.
He handed the keys to an 18 year-old at UCF in Milton. He was a True Frosh and started every game the past 2 years! Not sure why anyone thinks this is stupid. Best player plays!
Sounds like johmncmillon was a QB on one of TO teams. So I would say you should bring it up to HCSF and maybe he could give you a better explanation then you can come back on here and let us in on what was said.
I'm curious what you think of the idea of bringing in a Joe Burrow as a transfer? Would that make sense?
