Ryan Williams........ I believe

[TheUuuuu]

Seems like all the players have a ton of respect for him and that could be big also

This.

I've heard this song before when fans look for another QB or a back up to become a savior.

 

[riceman]

Don't worry -- with this o-line and Coley the Clown's play calling no QB on the planet is getting us more than 5 wins.

Oh so true...

 

[JimmyJohnsonsHair]

The only legit argument for starting Williams is that it will save Kaaya from taking a pounding behind this disaster of an o-line. But anyone expecting Williams to "save our season" is just delusional.

 

[77cane]

Williams's arm looks like Elway's howitzer compared to Kaaya.

Many have a short memory

 

[Calinative]

I agree. Im so tired of hearing that because we started Kaaya, we have to start him all yr. That is such BS. I get you want to stick with him through the growing pains, but thats in a situation where you have two qbs and the freshman beats out the other guy. We have a unique situation where our starter got hurt, so we started a freshman to replace him. But i believe once he comes back he is our starter. If Kaaya cant handle being benched as a freshman for our starting RS SR qb, hes got a confidence problem he needs to work on.

I hear you Vern. The problem is that Golden wouldn't put him in last years to replace a one legged QB. Then again, we have seen Golden's judgement sucks so many Williams is actually great. Since Williams is about a 9th year senior, maybe he has the balls to change every play Coley sends in and call his own game, THEN we might have a chance.

Ahh the couldn't beat out one-legged Morris urban legend continues to self-perpetuate! That's why I pay the big bucks to read this forum.

RW is a beast and was destroying spring camp.

Our OL will still have its problems though.

SO start him over the senior QB who started the previous year who was projected by many to be top draft pick and the entire team was behind and started off the year 7-0? lol ok

Well in their defense, he would have actually been the starter had he not been hurt. That said, being better than what we have seen on game day isn't a difficult thing to accomplish. Our offense will likely still suck, maybe not as bad though.

Looks about right for a true freshman. Oh, were you expecting more? If so, please explain the basis of those expectations. After all, conflict is the difference between unrealistic expectations and reality.

I actually expected different from our true frosh.

















I expected him to be red shirting.

No you start him after the other guy proves incapable, or you give him the hook before he completely self-destructs. Good coaches don't grant the position, they make sure it's earned week to week.

Anyone, including the non-scholarship QB's could have performed better than Morris. LOL It's not like they all played rugby in high school! But, you may have something in the notion that "the entire team was behind [him]."

Why? Because he's "our" true frosh? I just want to know if our expectations were unrealistic or not. We want our guys to be the exception, but can we really be that upset that a true frosh is playing like...well, a true frosh?

Those stats tell me he should not be starting when Ryan Williams is healthy and able to play again

Short answer.

Because I foolishly expected our corching staff to have some kind of ******* clue by now.

 

[UMJer026]

Anyone hearing anything new on him? Word on the street is he may be ready very, very soon.

Big picture, this could be a worst-case scenario for us--if he comes back and leads us to something like 8-4, the clown staff comes back for another year of mediocrity.

 

[Hurracanes]

Williams "may" be an improvement for the offense but it won't make a major impact with the big picture. Reality will set in in a couple of weeks when the schedule gets tougher. Offense will continue to struggle and the Defense will be exposed once again. Just my opinion.

Some of you guys are severely over-rating Ryan Williams. Dan Marino in his prime would struggle to make a difference with Coley's play calling and this atrocious o-line. There is virtually no chance that this team exceeds 6 wins, with or without Williams. Personally I think 5 wins is the max.
