It cracks me up that people just assume that McNamara is going to be given the starting job when we have a 3 year starter already on our roster, and our complex offense allegedly takes 2+ years to learn.

Petras will be better than McNamara in practice. That's all thar matters to Kirk

Would you be interested in raising the stakes on our $100 bet on whether or not Spencer will take the first snap as QB in Game 1 next season?

Beebs gets to say this until the season starts and then when it doesn’t happen all he has to say is “yeah but can you blame me for thinking that?”

it’s ok @BBK. You’re protecting yourself and I don’t fault you for that. It’s not your fault.

There are better odds that @Bob Sanders fucks a pussy than Cade McNamara starting game 1 in 2023

He has a torn rotator cuff and torn labrum in his shoulder. He may as well have his right arm surgically removed.

Also remember when Kurt continued to say nice things about Petras and Iowa fan still booed him.

That wasn't very nice and hurt Kurt's feelings.

Kurt Ferentz would engineer a new virus capable of causing a global pandemic if it meant more eligibility for spencedawg.

Is there another Petras on the roster?

Petras didn't hurt a knee so his wheels are still in good shape. Snort.

Maybe I misinterpreted what the announcer said during the bowl game, but I believe they said something like “Kirk Ferentz already announced that Cade McNamara is the guy next year (regardless of how Labas performed in the bowl game).”

I think it's safe to assume a guy who has started in the CFP is going to have the spot over a guy who couldn't beat out a turd like Petras

Agreed. I think they waived for a couple of year the “25 new scholarships/year” limit. But kept the 85 total scholarships limit.

If they give a player a substantial NIL package can they count him as a walkon?

I actually believe scholarship limits will eventually go away. We’ve already heard several schools comment that they shouldn’t be limited in the numbers of opportunities they are able to provide.

Surely, Kirk’s son, Brian Ferentz would pass muster

This is insanity. So, the best/only hope that Brian might move on requires Bill O'Brien to be hired by the Patriots? Not the part where he is terrible at his job and hated by the players?

Kirk is a monster and needs to be stopped.
That is some posters interpretations of the situation. Nobody knows shit.
