was Joe Evans backing up Ty Detmer . . . but man the crowd sure loved Joe.

(Probably because it meant Detmer has just destroyed another team and we were up by 20+ late in the 4th)

Our backup is always better.....always.

No it's not. No one wanted Hall's backup, or Beck's.

Taysom had some great games. But there were calls for his backup sometimes.

I have only one dispute with you and it isn't a biggy. The throw

Heaping love on the back-up QB is a time-tested BYU tradition

I remember the good old times when Mangum was better than Taysom

Joe used to post on here a lot. May have been years ago. I lose track of time

Shoulder isn't completely healed?

That's what I think, or it "healed" like Mangum's and he won't have

This is why I am glad CB doesn't coach the football team.

Wilson is clearly not 100% yet. And there is more to it than passing mechanics.

It's time for Clements and Young. I wonder if Fowler is available.

I hope you're not referring to the jet sweep timing issue. Zack made a beautiful

Zach has great tools to be a superb college QB

Thanks for understanding the real intent of the post

Yes, but you should see the way Zach catches snaps in warmups compared to Hall.

Something is obviously wrong with Zach right now. He had several terrible

He looked great last year because of the poor competition.

Go 18 for 18 once, and everyone thinks 66% is suddenly bad.

Indy Coug

9/9/19 12:14pm

Agreed. Think I counted 3 bad throws in the 1st Qtr alone. Like "really" bad.

Watching them in warmups at the Utah game I felt the total opposite.

His arm is fine. Did you see that throw to Simon? He just hasn't been connecting

You should email Fesi and tip him to watch them warm up.
