post practice 4/17/18

Honestly it was almost overkill the way he was defending him. It makes me think he has heard the overwhelming criticism recently or better yet, maybe he reads this board! Either way, I know what I saw Saturday and Malik is nowhere near the other 2 in terms of talent and potential. IDGAF about knowing what to do, that means nothing if you can't actually do it.

I don't believe that. Richt isn't going to pull him unless he absolutely has to & just throwing picks in a game won't be enough. Richt said in that video the only game where Malik couldn't hit his targets was Pitt. That to me lets me know he doesn't really care if Malik didn't play well in several other games because we won, Va Tech for example.

That's what I was alluding to in some of my comments yesterday, Richt is sticking with Rosier no matter what, because if he benches him too quick it defeats the purpose of starting him in the first place.

Richt knows better than I do & I have no problem being wrong. If he thinks Rosier gives us the best chance to win then I'm fine with that, I hope he's right. But I don't see any of the other QB's playing a lick this season, except for maybe late 4th quarter vs Savannah St. & maybe FIU.

The QB competition is for QB2, not for the starter.

If Perry or Williams plant their flag in the next five months, Rick won’t ignore it. He’s going to play the guy he thinks gives him the best chance to win. Right now, that’s Rosier. That doesn’t meant it will be Rosier in Arlington and beyond. The light could come on for Perry or Williams could come charging.

It’s up to them. They can accept second place, or do what’s necessary to be the starter.

If one of those guys starts outperforming Rosier in the practices and scrimmages, we’ll know it.

I don’t believe QB1 is settled. Unless you think neither of those guys has what it takes to beat out Rosier.
 
I love how suddenly everyone on this board knows more about QB play that the HC, because they "saw it last year".
 
If the other 2 don't know what to do then teach them what to do. It 's called coaching. I don't care if Nkosi, Jarren, Richt Jr. and Richt have to get on a conference call at 7:30 at night every night that shouldn't be an obstacle come the fall.

But if you listen closely, it is very clear that Rosier is on a short lease if he is not performing and that will hold true game to game.

He was on a short lease last year too, we just had nothing behind him. Which is more embarrassing than Rosier starting at UM. I mean he benched him at Pitt, while having an undefeated season going , albeit smoke in mirrors.

I still can’t understand not going the transfer route or juco, I mean he said himself that he didn’t think Malik would ever start for him.

Our ceiling with him is low and he’s not going to change his stripes.

You boys better hope for another year of an unreal amount of turnovers.

@Loose Cannon guess you were right I forgot where you posted it but I guess richt wants to roll with Malik because he runs his system the best but he does his best when there's competition behind and it's not like shirrefs is behind him so that's a good sign

Most folks expected him to start , the argument against that was Rosier is what he is , and is an average starter.

Fifth year , twenty three year olds just don’t become accurate over over night.

We know what he is , the young guys are far more talented, but need reps but are losing them to a old guy that’s mediocre.

But like we all knew , he’s going to let Malik fall on his face , unlike last year there’s actually guys that’ll take it. Or at least get a chance when he does fail.

We’ll just have to wait for a typical Rosier game , after a loss or two he’ll be out.

Oh well.

Rosier will be the starter & there's not much either of them can do about it. They just have to prepare themselves to be ready in case Rosier plays terribly late in the season.

I think both of those guys have what it takes to beat out Rosier, but talent doesn't mean anything. Richt wants the QB who does exactly what he says & doesn't go off script or improvise. Rosier fits that bill perfectly.

Maybe we have the same season as last year or maybe we don't, but he's riding with Rosier. The others just have to challenge themselves to be mentally tapped in & wait for opportunities.

Malik starts in Dallas. While Williams and Perry patiently wait on his errant throws and torrible reads. Weldon enrolls at UNC Charlotte. Book it.
 
problem is Perry hasnt stepped up like we thought he would. This is now what, 6 scrimmages over 2years that he's had the same horrible stats. I don't wanna give up on the kid, but I'm really disappointed he hasn't made a significant improvement and been able to outshine someone like Rosier already. We heard all these glowing accounts about him on the scout team especially late last season, but that just hasnt translated to consistently looking like the best QB.... head scratcher...

Not freaking out yet, but I would love Richt to shake things up and start Williams for several practices and let him get some serious 1st team reps and see what he does... hate the idea of going into next year unsure of perry and rosier and not knowing if maybe, just maybe this FR QB can some in and be a stud with the 1st team.

Are you SERIOUS...are you telling the fans, who finally got a chance to see with their on eyes that #12 has outperformed the others in this camp and scrimmages/spring game. Are you telling us fans that #12 gives us the best chance to win going into this upcoming season when our depth on D is too thin for a bunch of 3 and outs in the simmering heat of the season. There's a very HUGE difference between having understanding of a coaches philosophy and executing and performing on gameday. Who's to say that the philosophy is not flawed and that a simplified scheme with elite talent wouldn't be the better way to go. How do you blame the D for giving up 20+ points and 400yds a game if they're tired and frustrated every wknd. The freaking walk-ons gone get some burn on D this season bc we don't have the depth.

CMR all but told us he's ride or die with #12. I don't believe any of the others can waver his decision in spite of their growth over the summer. Im not taking shots at you for this but you were making it seem as though CMR decision was performance-based and I totally disagree from that angle. It is what it is now, we can be true CANES and ride out or bounce.

If they have what it takes to beat out Rosier then they will beat out Rosier.

They either will or won’t.

And talent doesn’t mean anything unless you can implement it.

Your comment about going off script or improvising is kind of surprising. Most QB coaches or OC’s don’t want that. In fact none that I know want that, so in that respect, Rick is no different.

All quarterbacks have a script they follow. That’s kind of how it works. You know that already, nobody needs to tell you. Call the play. First read, second read, etc. It’s not the schoolyard.

Sounds like you’ve soured and made up your mind which is your prerogative. I happen to think people determine their own fate. If either of those guys is good enough and works hard enough to beat out Rosier, they will.

I wouldn’t be making it something that it isn’t.

It’s a competition and Rosier still happens to be ahead.

I also think Williams fits that bill perfectly, and I don't think it's something that Perry can't correct. A lot of football left. ****, a lot of Spring ball left.
