Huntley over Wilson? Why?

QB, multiple OL, at least Tonga on the DL, likely both Kafusi’s at

Agree except Huntley would start over Wilson.

Dangerous

5/14/19 7:40am

Maybe at Utah because the coaching staff refuses to throw, but Wilson is

specsauce

5/14/19 7:42am

Why?

cougarmanguy

5/14/19 7:45am

because they would go with the seasoned senior, not the sophomore

BlueFrog

5/14/19 8:06am

I’d go with the seasoned sophomore

cougarmanguy

5/14/19 8:34am

i'm sure you would. but you aren't the coach of utah

BlueFrog

5/14/19 9:09am

Who knows what he’d do. Do any of us? It’s not like he’s a qb genius

Has Whittingham ever started an underclassman over a returning senior starter? we can go off precedent to

BlueFrog

5/14/19 9:39am

good Question. Not sure

cougarmanguy

5/14/19 9:40am

Whit has actually been aggreessive with starting young QBs over experienced QBs.

Scratch

5/14/19 9:43am

Good point

cougarmanguy

5/14/19 9:44am

Huntley started over a returning senior

CrimsonCardinal

5/14/19 10:12am

No, Wilson is better

cougarmanguy

5/14/19 10:20am

Why would you say Huntley is equal as a passer?

jdub

5/14/19 10:38am

You are right. Wilson has significantly better stats in all areas of passing

cougarmanguy

5/14/19 10:48am

Yes. He started Huntley over Troy Williams just two years ago.

you do realize that zach wilson's first choice was utah but utah didn't take him

Byu_realist101

Either did BYU at first

cougarmanguy

5/14/19 10:02am

And the guy that Utah wanted didn't last more than a month. Says more about Utah coaches than anything else.

the kid wanted instant playing time, he was one of the top recuits in cali and..

We will see soon enough what he will do.

ochobeeguy

5/14/19 9:59am

We already saw. He played Utah in slc extremely well

cougarmanguy

5/14/19 10:02am

as a true freshman

Rise Against

5/14/19 10:05am

And lost, blowing a 20 point lead.

CrimsonCardinal

5/14/19 10:18am

He blew the lead? 🙂

You guys have been fun this whole thread. Thanks for the comedy

cougarmanguy

5/14/19 10:22am

Someone's got to provide a dose of reality here.

CrimsonCardinal

5/14/19 10:29am

Still looking for that person

cougarmanguy

5/14/19 10:36am

Our true freshman outperformed your freshman, by a lot.

Rise Against

5/14/19 10:40am

Hardly

CrimsonCardinal

5/14/19 11:04am

Actually yes by a lot

cougarmanguy

5/14/19 11:13am

And Shelley didn't start doing anything until we'd lost our two best defenders

Cougar76

5/14/19 4:04pm

You know Wilson doesn't play defense, right?

jdub

5/14/19 10:39am

True

CrimsonCardinal

5/14/19 10:47am

Take it outside. I was talking about Jason Shelley

ochobeeguy

5/14/19 2:57pm

Because KWhitt would have turned him into a safety

UberDeek

5/14/19 8:28am

They would because of his experience but talent wise not a chance.

Ash

5/14/19 8:56am

i'm not sure on linebacker. they have bernard and the transfer from Penn St

BlueFrog

5/14/19 8:07am

This is true. I’d forgotten about the PSU transfer.

specsauce

5/14/19 11:46am

Isaiah Kaufusi is a better linebacker than Bernard ever was

donnerstag

5/14/19 12:00pm

stats don't back that up one bit

BlueFrog

5/14/19 3:16pm

Isaiah has better measurables and was more productive as a starter

donnerstag

5/14/19 3:28pm

what are you basing your decision on? opinion or stats? and what measurables?

BlueFrog

5/14/19 3:38pm

Kaufusi is 2 inches taller and is faster

donnerstag

5/14/19 4:02pm

Kaufusi is maybe 205 lbs. that's better measurables for a linebacker? our high school MLB is currently 6'2 225

BlueFrog

5/14/19 9:17pm

less prototypical? now you are just talking out your butt. i think you made up those stats too. lame

BlueFrog

5/14/19 9:23pm

Prototypical linebackers are 6'1" to 6'3"

donnerstag

5/14/19 10:29pm

ha. so now he has potential to be prototypical? and he only had 3 games total over 5 tackles. you're making stuff up

BlueFrog

5/15/19 6:46am

Kaufusi only has 5 career starts where he played the whole game

donnerstag

5/15/19 6:59am

Ha. now it is projects better to the nfl? man you are a king goal post mover. And 6 starts

BlueFrog

5/15/19 7:38am

Bernard was very inconsistent
