Certainly the fans assumed he was the next Lamar Jackson. The most I see and read is on his leadership, a proven winner, etc. I'd stick with fan base's overwhelming expectations not being met. and he's still an upgrade. And yeah, he had a great year last year at Baylor, after being in their program for years. He arrived here after the Spring, expectations should have been adjusted on that alone. It seems Scott and Trickett tried to make him a pocket passer the first couple of games and then let him go a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like they thought he was a better pocket passer than he really is. Thankfully they've seemed to adjust and have run him a ton which is what they'll have to do to give us a chance. Let's hope he can stay healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said he's not the passer fans or the coaches thought they were getting and that is my assumption/opinion. Is that really a wild take? lol. Scott was the one talking about his completion % and everything else in camp. If you disagree and think he's a good passer or that the hamstring is to blame for any poor performances, that's fine. For as many flashes he's shown he has just as many signs of being abysmal. I said he's been much better of late, but still plenty of passing plays and games that you watch where you just shake your head. Pointless to go back and forth on this stuff. In my opinion, I believe the coaches thought he was a better passer than he truly is. Period. The second part, and main point of my initial response is that the QB for Baylor, Blake Shapen is a much better QB than Bohanon and it's not even close. I'm pretty sure the coaches thought (correctly) that he was an upgrade over what we had in the qb room at the time .... and as I said before they were correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has 6 more games to separate himself. The defense and coaching staff to need step up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those that still think he’s the problem can go cheer for c. GB is fine. He sat on the bench and built chemistry/played with that team for years. Sure, we overhyped him but that is what we do as fans.

I don't think he was/is overhyped at all ... he is a clear upgrade over what we had ... any issue is above his pay grade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the two games we're pointing to say he's a good pocket passer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I give the guy props and you get offended. I literally said he is playing better recently and he has 6 games to separate himself from Timmy. 5 passing Tds and 6 interceptions is not good in college football buy all 5 of his tds have came in the last two games (recent). His best asset so far is his legs and we need to take advantage of that. Run more rpo, read option, and spread option plays.
