Mateer

[umcane4life]

Mateer was also a huge OU fan growing up. Wasn't just his old OC going there

Yes. Kid grew up an OU fan and his OC from WSU went to Oklahoma last year.

What? He had 3900 total yards and 44 total td’s in 2024 .He was absolutely not the same guy. The hand completely changed how he played . I swear people just being saying **** . Dawson would have a field day with this guy.

Against the G5

 

[CaneMutiny06]

By the way, Mateer played 3 games against FBS opponents prior to coming back with the thumb injury (Michigan, Temple, Auburn). In those 3 games his average QB rating was 134.9. His QB rating on the season?
129.36

He was averaging 300 yards a game passing before he broke his hand / thumb. His passing yards took a huge dip when he came back but had multiple 300 yard games to end . Playing with that injury is a huge deal especially with how fast he came back. To think that didn’t play a big part in his numbers dropping is wild . But you’re the guy that said he’s the same guy as last year . When I called you on that dense comment you said “ G5”.

I said he was the same guy “before the thumb injury” in reference to his performance at the beginning of THIS season and his efficiency numbers support that. Throwing for 300 yards doesn’t mean you’re efficient as a passer.

The criticism of his mechanical habits is completely valid.

Notice I never mentioned mechanics as you said it’s valid. He’s not a pure passer but more of a gamer that opens other parts of the offense with his legs . Beck is more of a pure passer but defenses won’t be able to defend us the same way they do Beck. He’s a sitting duck.

Mateer’s run threat not only opens everything in pass game but opens the run game . Defenses will no longer be able to cheat or crash down. So his reads and coverages will be much easier than our previous qb’s. That said he might be a tad awkward playing qb he’s still a 64-65 percent passer . With this OL , run game and skill room he’d be tier one guy.

People forget he was a heisman front runner early on. Then his injury hit and he was different. The OU running game did him no favors. He’s probably staying at OU bc I’m sure they’ll convince him he can get back to pre-injury form.

Ya never know with the portal brother

If this was a weaker portal class I would say yes but i think there’s 6-7 QBs that are better.
