Fall Practice #1

I'm glad he worked hard. Nothing bitter. I have no horse in this race. How does Summer workouts earn you the first team reps? I just don't want the QB job handed to anyone. If the starting QB doesn't truly "earn it", there will be a divided fanbase and locker room.

Where have you been? Since at least al Golden the opening depth chart was based off of summer workouts. The coaches will play the best Qb. Why is that hard to believe?

I think what a lot fans like myself feel is that Martell hasn't earned any of the hype he's getting. He had 1 good Spring scrimmage. That's it. Show me that you deserve to be the guy with play on the field. Rather looks like the job is being handed to him the way OSU handed the job to Fields because I haven't seen anything to justify running with the 1's on day 1. Manny spinning some garbage about Martell's Summer workouts has put him in this position. I'm not buying it. You can't earn anything in Summer workouts. Summer workouts only prepare you to earn the job in the Fall. How can coaches evaluate Summer workouts that are run by the players themselves?

So, how's he lining up with the 1's on day 1? Just jumped to the top base on Summer workouts?

Hi Calbo305! Why not just play the race card directly? Why you ***** footing around it? Say what you feel.












Also...you’re an idiot!

Y'all running out of narratives slowly but surely. First it was "he can't throw" that then turned into "but it wasn't a spiral" and now it's "he can't be under center".

Im waiting on the grand finale though. "it was never truly an open competition".

Calm down, I have no favorite. Just saying what I saw. Let’s see who wins day 2
 
This is what I hate about practice.
Patchan does one heck of a play out there and people are focusing on the QB and his height and him being under center.
Just very silly to make a big deal about it in such a negative fashion. Just tip your cap to the DE and move right along.

So basically you're saying that this was never a true open competition? I'm waiting to hear someone say it.

In summer camp u see who really has work ethic. You're not starting any QB who doesn't have a work ethic and got outworked by a preferred walk on.

What Summer camp? Summer workouts are run by the players? The only thing involved by any coaches is Feeley with weight lifting workouts.

For me I said under center he doesn’t seem comfortable and was like that the whole night, not just the Patchan play which was great. He would’ve done that to any qb on our roster. He killed our o lineman on that play.

Agreed. It's nice to see Patchan figuring out ways to be disruptive in the pass game. He's not going to speed rush guys so got do something.
Balls being batted are much more about staring down WRs and release times by the QB. Bortles is 6'5 and he led the NFL in passes batted down.

Based on weight lifting with Feeley? Really? Because anything else is player run and would be against NCAA rules for coaches to be involved.

You’re not very bright and you are clearly going to be one of those people dividing the fan base if Martell gets the job. It’s obvious
 
Lets just sit back and relax and watch this all play out because tonight what if Perry gets the 1st reps of the night with the 1st team Offense.

Y'all gonna freak out over that too???

What is wrong with your reading comprehension? Manny and others said that Tate started with the first team BECAUSE HOW HE PERFORMED IN THE SUMMER. doesn't mean he wins the starting QB role.

That is my point exactly. Based on what in the Summer? You have weight training with Feeley and player organized football workouts. So, how are you judging things from player run workouts that don't involve coaches? I'm sure Feeley kept track of who was working out the hardest, etc. That's the only thing any judgment could be made on. So, that's it. Based on weight training? And of course this applies to every position right?
 
You guys are here discussing QB’s, OL, Jet plays, etc. and no one is mentioning the change of our font numbers? Pfffffffffffffffffft!!!

It’s ridiculous , then you have “fans” tweeting sh*t about the qb play posting false things from the practice where uf fans eating the sh*t up like it’s real , trying to make certain qbs seem like they were bad on day 1. That’s exactly why they don’t open up practice all the way because ****head fans blow sh*t out of proportion to fit whatever their agenda is

I think Manny should have the QB’s switches jersey numbers so that no one knows who is in the backfield running the show! LOL

He went 10-10 (or something like that) against Rutgers in an actual game in front of 80,000 people. You don’t think the coaches have seen that?
