CJ Bailey needs to come home

I don’t get how people just ignore how he folds against good teams. Mendoza did the opposite. Playing great against avg opponents doesn’t win you championships. You need guys who excel when under fire. This guy has never shown he is that…

This right here, I couldn’t have said it better myself and I think because he’s a Hometown kid, people want to forget that. I want a gamer in there, give me Levitt if he’s healthy.

The two 80s actresses that have aged the worst of anyone are by far Kelly McGillis and Kathleen Turner. It’s a bit scary looking at both those ladies now. Especially being a kid in the 80s and seeing the movies romancing the stone and top gun and having a bit of a crush on both of them. Time isn’t always kind that’s for sure. Lol

Top Gun 2 was better so hopefully get the top QB in college football this year and end up with Penny Benjamin

When did Mendoza perform vs good teams before Indiana?

Leavitt hasn’t done anything that wows you. He is a good qb but he isn’t elite. Leavitt, Bailey, sorsby and etc are all about the same

If you think Bailey is on the same level as Levitt , a guy who brought his team to the playoffs last year and shouldve beat Texas, then I don’t know what more I can tell you, my friend. Maybe pop in the Miami versus NC State game this year and then you’ll come around a little bit on the lack of arm strength and decision-making ability with pressure Bailey showed.

Jennifer Connolly, uffffff it just doesn’t get any better than that in the 80s/90s I’ll tell you that. That right there is my all-time crush. Unbelievably beautiful that woman is.

That’s what I’m talking about right there, she still looks great. She did a cameo in cobra Kai and looked amazing. It all depends on the genetics and unfortunately, McGillis and Turner didn’t get them. Lol

For starters, did you not watch how he tore us up last year in the Cal game?

Difference between him and Bailey is that he balled out and Bailey looked really bad but then again our defense is light years better than last year’s.

Asu is better than ncst so it isn’t fair to compare team success. And yea he struggled vs us because his team struggled overall because they were just outmatched. Bailey did beat 2 ranked teams this year and performed well in those games. The 2 games he really struggled was the 2 games his team was just way less talented than vs miami and nd

You just killed your point with the last sentence. Our defense last year was terrible. Everybody had success passing. But even Mendoza was only good in the 1st half of that game. He finished 11/22 50% 285yds 2tds 1int
 
The people hating on Bailey is the same people that wanted Mateer over Mendoza last year they are using the same language! Game managers win championships

Dude was getting nfl evals last year and he performed well in many game and was under intense pressure in just about every game. His ol was legendary bad. The fact that he was completing in the high sixties with only 6 ints on that team with that oline was crazy. He was literally running for his life on just about every play. That’s why he is so good. No team in college can put more pressure on him than he had in just about every game last year. You put that pressure on most QBs and they throw tons of ints and have low comp %.

Yeah, well, what do you have to say for this year? He beat Ohio State and his team is undefeated going into the playoffs and he will likely win the Heisman 🤷🏻‍♂️

He was 11 for 22. Our defense had two big busts 57 and 66 yard TDs. One to a TE and on a swing pass to a RB. They only had 12 first downs. Shows you how bad our defense was to give up 31 points (Cams pick 6 game up the other 7).

Which is exactly what happened to Bailey this year with the picks.

Put Bailey in a good system like ours with the weapons and protection, he is going to elevate his game even further.

Levitt had way more talent then Bailey on his team and as soon as that talent left he struggled tremendously

In the first half, he was pretty surgical.

But again, dismiss that game all you want. You can’t argue with how good he’s been this year and the fact he will be a first round pick and if you do argue, then I don’t know what to tell you.

Not saying Bailey would be my choice but his 2025 is pretty much in line with Levitt's 2024 which was his best season so far. Levitt is the better runner and Bailey had 3 more interceptions this year but otherwise the stats are pretty close.
