Let us not forget that a year 2 starter in his 4th year in the program did this without a benching:

Jack Campbell has as much talent as any LB we've ever had, but in an interview sounds like Dauber Dybinski. This explains the indecision on the Illinois interception return.

Yet, he's sharper in front of a camera than our full of anxiety QB.

Spencer, calm the fuck down. I don't think he took a breath or blinked during his BTN interview.

Don't buy into the "Spencer is better" bullshit. I know most of us aren't, but I see a few tards here.

We're right that he's dogshit until proven otherwise in game play
Any improvement has all been verbal, not witnessed. Anything that has been public points to being what he's always been

No one is saying that but I did have a front row seat to our RT being pushed right into the QB on 3rd down.

I have a sneaking suspicion that we are going to have the worst QB in America, again.

I base this on him being the worst QB in America the prior 2 seasons.

If you were suicidal but lacking follow through, he's the kind of kid you'd want to marry your daughter.

I think it's time that this queer receive some blame for not being able to be unquestionably better than the worst QB in America (who plays).







Have some pride and quit the team or football, all together.

If he quits, we would've had no choice but to go to the portal. But Alex likes seasons and the river.

I dont know, I kinda enjoyed Padilla getting an opportunity against Minnesota, and watching a victory- with Petras wearing the red hat, and doing his clapping on the sidelines.

The switch should have been made- thats on the coaches. Although, it should have also been a signal that someone needed to be brought in.

Expecting, perhaps even hoping for, improvement is only going to result in more frustration than you already feel. I was at the Kid's Day practice and saw nothing that gives me any hope for something better. His footwork is still terrible, and he still throws rocket balls at receivers who are 5 yards away. And the panic - oh, the panic.

1:15 of this video. No idea what the footwork is here.

Obviously, Spencer gets a full shot at not being the worst QB in college football for a 3rd consecutive year, but I think that they will eventually pull him for good.

Then they'll hand it all over for the rest of the season to Padilla and he'll immediately break his leg and Spencer will be back.

There is a big difference between hope and belief.

I hope he's good in the same way I hope I'm going to feel just fine right before I order a two piece fish and more at Long John Silver's.

Having him graduate and use up his eligibility isn’t “pulling him”

Feet firmly planted in the ground. Where's the fucking dovetail!!??!!

LOFL at anyone who thought there was an open competition for the starting job. Padilla may not be a world beater, but his mobility alone makes him a better option than this kid. All other aspects are equal at worst. Add some or any mobility and you have to be blind to not see it as a better option. Another year of defenses loading the box to stop the run because they have zero respect for the passing game. Here's to FG's and defensive TD's.

Since Halo's boy Labas isn't ready you're back to Padilla? Pathetic sacks you are

Spencer = dogshit QB, no real chance of even being a top 80 QB in FBS
Padilla = not a great start, possibly dogshit
Labas and May = tbd but were recruited by the exact same people that recruited 3 failed QBs in the space of 3 years including Deuce.

Couple that with a refusal to look in the portal, and it's a shit sandwich.
