Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (About the quarterbacks... again)
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
I'll take your word on that.
To be fair, my initial comment was to a poster responding to your article.
The hate for Charlie at the end meant anyone remotely next to him was going to get run over.
@Ketchum i hope you and @Anwar Richardson take the gloves off and have a real conversation on the QB situation on the overreaction pod today. The way the QB process has played out this year has been laughable. And the QB who has the talent to be a superstar is missing out on valuable reps because the other guy forced an ultimatum upon Sark. There is no explanation for Sark not letting Card gain confidence and develop by starting him against Rice and Tech. Let him correct his mistakes and grow since he’s, ya know, a redshirt freshman with little experience. I will continue to praise Card on how classy he has handled this process. Hell of a lot more than we can say about the other guy.
That's Big 12-title winning Spencer Rattler, pal.
Not much to say at this point. The record speaks for itself.
The shine has been taken off Casey for now.

Treatment has 100% been different and it’s a huge red flag on Sark. Casey threw a fit and got his way.
I literally wrote my second section of the column about the up-shit-creek nature of what next year's line might look like. No one has written more about that group than me.
you most certainly open up the interpretation of that to mean "unfairly."
well, yeah. That's what happens in general when a situation like it occurs.
That's not me telling you it's unfair, it's simply the natural instinct to make that assertion in life when it happens in every walk of life telling you that.
This is a sad take coming from a Mod that gets paid to cover football. I would take your bias lenses off and see it for what it is. Card is the younger QB with way more upside and arm talent he should be starting no questions asked. You see the deep digs the O line played by far their worst game of the year against Arkansas they couldn’t run the ball at all, was card rattled yes he was as would probably anyone in that environment but he didn’t turn the ball over.
If not for the greatness of Bijan Texas would have lost to TCU. Thompson was exposed like I said he would be. OU game he disappeared when the team needed him and he was an abortion and lost the game against OSU. Stop defending mediocrity!!!
Who did I say in this column should be the starter?
I'll hang up and listen.
I am not calling for Card to play a single down against Baylor if Thompson plays well. I'm of the opinion that Card possibly playing needs to be on the table if he doesn't.
Oh, it's a problem that ain't going away just because. I'm still stunned that Sarkisian watched the group in the spring and was like, "We're good."
At the end of the day, the foolishness of trying to save CArd's redshirt this season is over so there's a very real possibility that Sark will be more open to bringing in Card for a spell if Thompson is struggling.
I think there's simply a conversation about the subject of Card that no one wants to have.
Sark's actions would seem to indicate his confidence is so low in him that it's hard to wonder how you ever fully get that back.
If Casey was forced to miss more than one play, we could have seen a drive led by card. Part of me was definitely hoping we let Card have that drive and see what he could do. That’s not me saying I wanted Casey hurt. It could have provided a slim opportunity to jump start our offense though.
That is an assumption on your part.
You have no idea what conversations are taking place behind closed doors.
It' just takes some paying attention to see.
It's not out of place to wonder about the implications of it.
And Card got a lot of help from play calling, o line, receivers and defense against against Arky? You make no sense. Casey has been nothing short of disastrous in his last 10/12 quarters of football. And to use your favorite phrase, he was “shell shocked” after he threw that pick 6 Saturday. Even though he’s a senior, playing at home. I’m sure your sources have told you the real reason Casey is getting multiple opportunities despite playing terrible. Go back and get the full story of what went down the last week of August. It might make you report on the matter differently. Just saying. Again, thankfully Card is a class act.
He looked pretty confused on Sat. I am not sure he could have played any worse.
Good. Because it needs to be addressed head on. Please be sure to discuss the process. Particularly what took place at the end of August when Hudson was named starter. Do a deep dive on Casey and his family’s response during that time. It will tell the fan base a lot for those wondering why Card is being treated differently. Good for Card for being a true class act.
They didn't need someone to come in and be an All-American. The program would have improved if they had signed two players that are simply better than Tope Imade.
(Sell) It's a million things and not just one or two. It's all of those things and more. This isn't an uncomplicated rebuild.
Wrong. There are fundamental problems with the psyche of this program. 12 years of swings between mediocre and terrible has damaged the entire structure. They expect bad things to happen and to lose. THAT is hard to reverse.
I cannot imagine what it would be like in the SEC next year with what TX has on the OL and DL. That would not be a pretty season.
