Heisenberg...
1. Go back and reread the thread and you'll understand why I said what I said about Murray and the production. Then maybe you'll understand why I made that comment.
2. Cool
3. You keep bringing up this JUCO stuff. Nobody said anything about JUCO fella. JUCO was never an option for him. I just find it puzzling that you don't think lack of height has bearing on QB production. It is common sense Heisenberg. It it didn't have an affect then there would be more sub 6' QBs at the D1 level.
4. Does he wear a Red jersey or nah? You acting like you have some superior football knowledge is pretty bush Heisenberg. I'm really trying to have a legitimate conversation with a sooner...it doesn't happen much with your bunch, but I'm giving it a shot.
5. Yeah, that isn't the case at all. On this board and the OU board I have always shown respect to the football players and coaches from OU. For you to say this shit is pretty weak.
6. If he is 5-10, he's 5-10. I don't give a rip. I don't know him, anyone from Allen or anyone that knows him.
7. Man, of course he was recruited to play QB. He was one of the best in Texas HS football all-time. However, lots of DUAL threat QBs end up moving to other positions and someone with his athleticism certainly has a nice back up plan. You're taking what I'm saying way too personal. It's not that deep.
8. When did I say I didn't think he is a QB? Or even a good to very good QB? I said he will lead OU to 10 wins and possible Big 12 title. What I've disagreed with is that OU's offense won't miss a step with him at QB and that he will throw for 3000 and run for 1000. I mean, is it really that big of a slap in the face to you that I would disgree with those statements? Really?
1. sure you had your reasons, but it didnt have anything to do with anything I said. So you were talking to someone else.
3. I know you didnt say anything about juco. My point is juco ranks are chock full of small quick guys who are good qbs but not big enough to play at this level. So despite his stature nearly every major program in the country wanted him. so your opinion is clashing with the opinion of men who get paid millions of dollars to evaluate talent.
You cant prove height has any bearing on production. Height doesnt affect accuracy, arm strength, decision making. or what abilities he has when protection breaks down. Doesn't give him magic powers that a 5'10 qb doesnt have. It gives him an advantage in seeing over the line, which is something that hasnt been a big problem for many qbs under 6'. Just because there arent many you can think of doesnt mean they cant play. It usually means a short guy who is playing at this level is pretty damn exceptional since that's not what you usually look for so he's making up for it somehow. His height sure didnt affect his pretty impressive production in 2017.
4. I'm acting like he's been playing behind big linemen for a long time. You act like he's gonna trot out there in september behind giant men for the first time in his life. Go watch some video and tell me his height affected him much last year.
5. Wrong, you obviously want him to fail. That's exactly how you feel, you'd love nothing more than to see him fail and be right. I get it, he's played for your two most hated enemies and you have no reason to look at his upside. You cant even acknowledge how much better he looked last year than he did as a freshman. All you see is downside. Because you are pulling for him to fail. I wouldnt expect anything less from a texas fan.
7. Not taking it personal, you are just trying to paint a narrative that does not exist. Sure some guys play other positions, and some guys dont. It was never anything anyone talked about with him, but you bring it up anyway. Why? Cause your narrative is he's not gonna be able to be good at this level so youre using hyperbole and possibilities nobody in Norman is considering to try to back it up.
8. You wrote that Murray thinks he's a qb, and i responded, that indeed, of course he's thinks he's a qb. You had just stated something so obvious, i said well, of course. like, duh, ya know?
Ou's offense wont miss a step and that's true. He will not produce like Mayfield did, but you dont need Mayfield like production to produce big in this offense. They have so much returning talent everywhere on that offense that qb is literally the least experienced position on the O and he's been in the system for a 3rd season. All he has to manage and refrain from mistakes, 'cause everyone else will do their job.
No not a slap in the face, i never once ever suggested for a second that he would produce those numbers. So if you thought that, then what a weirdo!
