Relative to the expectations we all had at that point (that of a true freshman QB who had struggled mightily in MANY games that year), I'm not gonna lie and say I didn't come away impressed by Jake's freshman outing at Utah. That said, it's not like he went Ty Detmer on them and ripped them a new one.

In fairness, BYU rarely used to have freshman starting quarterbacks.

Very true. Only 8 freshman QBs have started a game for BYU since 1973

Jim did play a little as a freshman didn't he? Or am I thinking of his sophmore

one of his main struggles was he never had the respect of his teammates

10/13/15 11:59am

Which bothers me. So what if he acts entitled? He was pretty good!

You still have to earn it...but I think he did have a some his frosh year...

Downtown

I'm not sure that's true of his freshman year.

smokymountainrain

10/13/15 12:01pm

from what I've heard it was true from day one

10/13/15 12:02pm

The coaches may have made one too many promises to him.

maybe, but I bet you'd be hard pressed to find anything even remotely

it may not have been as bad.

10/13/15 12:08pm

I would agree on this.

Willing your team to victories, especially when hurt, will do that

He did have a great season, but he didn't have the team as a Freshman.

Heaps had the ball taken out of his hand for several games.
