1st Scrimmage of the Spring

OriginalCanesCanesCanes said:
I have no clue whether Perry is all-ACC QB material or not. But here’s what I do know.

Fact: The actual head coach says he’s close behind the starter and pushing him some, a 10 game winner, who’s not a great QB nor very accurate, but did set a passing TD record.

I also know Perry had one lackluster performance in his very first ever spring scrimmage.

There’s a bunch more practices and scrimmages to go, so how about this.

How about you fūcking grow up and act like somebody with just a shred of common sense before completely writing him off, since the jury is still out on EVERYBODY.

Sounds like you’re the one that needs to do a lot of growing up.

For all we know Cade Weldon is the day 1 starter if his eyeball doesn’t fall out.

*Sidenote* one thing that was very telling to me about this whole situation aside from scrimmages was the fact that cmr had cade running scout team last year instead of nkosi. To me that was troubling. It may be a small issue but i wouldve figured the qb were grooming would be the one we want getting more snaps throughout the season rather than VERY limited snaps for preps sake.

Oh god not this same old story.

If Richt has a sub 50% QB playing in his third season as HC, then he has failed.

Anything else is just slurping and excuses.

Reality's hard sometimes. Ostriching doesn't help the situation.

Rosier's bad and he's ahead of Perry. They aren't good. Maybe Nkosi will be some day, but neither are good right now. Deal with it. You sound like a child throwing a temper tantrum... again.

There’s a difference between not good today and just not good, but you’re THAT guy.

In case you never noticed, I’ve never been a Perry slurper and I’m still not. When 75% of this board was saying Perry should be the starter LAST spring and summer, there were only a small handful of us saying fat chance. I was one of them.

So now when everyone is writing him off after one meaningless spring game, I guess I’ll be the one to say a lot can happen between now and August 31. I’d say there’s 4 guys that could possibly be the starter come LSU and he’s one of them, and he might not suck. Who knows. You sure don’t.

That’s not sticking my head in the sand, that’s just being realistic with the available information. It’s called having too small of a sample size. Unlike Rosier. We all kind of know what his ceiling is, more or less, because we have a big sample size, and the odds for significant improvements aren’t great.

Now, you go ahead and continue to be the sniveling idiot in San Francisco that writes people off with a bare thread of information. I’ll bet you had him penciled in as the starter last year.

Im not arguing cemantics with you because overall i fo agree with youre message on this topic. Long as its still we cant rush to judgement of people off the limited info we have. But what you stated about rosier is pretty far off in one aspect being hes the single season record holder for passing tds. No hes not. Hes actually tied for 6th in that regardconsidering until four or 5 years ago we didnt include bowl game stats in that regard. But even if youd like to than hed still only be tied for 4th with vinny in 86 & brad in 14. Our single season passing td holder is steve walsh in 88, dorsey in 02 & kayaa in 16. Thats 1,2 & 3... malik was our OVERALL single season td record holder with rushing tds included. 4th or 6th is still respectable in the bigger picture. The reality that a large number of those passing tds came off of bubble screens is a different story but then id be arguing cemantics.

I’m sorry but difference does it even make. I’m not even saying he’s that good. It was just a point of emphasis. He’s not a total bum. But anyway, maybe you’re not arguing semantics but it’s all technicalities anyways. Who cares.

Nobody here is under any illusions as to what Rosier is and we know what his limitations are. I think most people hope that either Perry or Williams have what it takes to be the starter. Or Weldon. The best you can ever hope from Rosier is around 58% at his best, minimize interceptions, get to that second read. He’s good at picking his running spots so keeping the D honest that way. But his ceiling isn’t very high. The other guys have higher ceilings which is why we all hope somebody shows out.

We’ll see.

It’s up to them.

The same D that let Clemson run a train on us and their Qb started the game 17-17, three TD possessions.

Just wait till Diaz is named HCIW; thats how this school rolls now.

Hes failed because of that? Good lord. Thats pretty harsh. Id seriously disagree that just because our qb play isnt yet where we need it at that hes failed as a coach. Qb is a position that requires some patience. Im praying that we have a qb in the room worthy of the position while i agree malik isnt the answer at all.

When will yall understand this one simple principle,its **** hard on a unit if theyre constantly under the heat of 3 & out. Some of it is on the unit as a whole but were not making it any easier to keep them stranded on the field for the majority of the game.

I can't wait for that. We'd run train on CF with Diaz. Dude's a Saban in waiting.

Very telling. Could it be that Perry was having difficulty picking up our offense and Richt didn’t want to confuse him by having him mimick other offenses? If that is the case and an other true freshman could handle it, gives me a bleak feeling on Perry.

Isn’t the scout team qb reserved for the qb that has zero shot at playing during the year? I’m (totally a guess) thinking perry was 3rd on the depth chart and by default, has to prep with the team to practice running the offense just in case rather than run the other team’s offense.

It can be taken as two ways, richt wanting Perry to get experience traveling as a 3rd string qb to away games and getting used to that environment or the scenario in what Dee is possibly thinking.
 
Our qb situation isn’t in a dire situation as people make it out to be. Does malik rosier need to improve? You **** right and I’m sure he knows that. But let’s face it, I personally want someone else at qb but that doesn’t mean rosier can’t be serviceable. I mean He did throw for 3100 yards and had 500 yards rushing 31 tds total and also beat FSU when we haven’t beat them in 7 years on an elite throw as the game expired.... also had two top 15 wins. He certainly had some negatives games(last 3 games most notably). The 4 games before that he had some good and bad moments but his accuracy was down right terrible. If he improves his accuracy and cut down on the ints he will be okay.


Perry man I don’t know what’s up with him, it’s early but who knows lol. I like His arm a lot and athletic ability but he’s got to do better in these scrimmages for sure.


Williams Im very excited about him, he has an elite build already as a true freshman 6’3 220 and has a great arm with some mobility. He made some deshaun Watson type plays on his highlights and that’s who I initially Compared him to but I saw Someone also compare him to a Donovan McNabb type of qb too and I can See that comparison as well

In the glory years the defense always beat the offense in the Spring. Trust me we would have more concern if it was any other way. Coaches expect it.
