Stats aren’t the full story, you know that.I like Quarterback A, but here is a simple scenario to show how out of whack the board's perception of CJ Bailey is compared to reality:
QUARTERBACK A: 2,518 yards (61.5%), 13 TDs, 9 INTs, 126.5 QB rating, -111 rushing yards, 2 TDs (10 starts)
QUARTERBACK B: 2,413 yards (64.9%), 17 TDs, 10 INTs, 144 QB rating, 279 rushing yards, 5 TDs (10 starts)
Quarterback A is Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele. Quarterback B is CJ Bailey as a true freshman. Same conference.
Again, the national perception of CJ Bailey is much different than what you read on this board. Same story as Mendoza.
Cal was projected to be the 3rd worst team in the ACC. JKS has elevated that team. When you watch him, he flashes and his talent jumps off the screen. He went in the road and beat a ranked team as a TF. I would argue JKS has done more with less than CJ. And I’m not anti CJ, but i think there’s legitimate discussion about other options.
If we go that route, we ride. But watching the last two games it’s fair to feel a bit underwhelmed
