I don't get you, Conover haters.

People hate Conover? Why?

Mister P

Because they're idiots that probably never played the game

That's what I'd like to know about it.

Ham

They don't, there's a couple people who probably make some negative comments.

I read CB. I must’ve missed the Conover hate. Seems like it’d be weird to hate

I couldn't agree more. How could anyone not root for one of our best QB's. If

Please show me one post that says he isn’t worth a crap, don’t project hate

Well, how about this threads' creator...Ham. He mentions all sorts of

Nothing negative or hateful in those quotes

To each their own. I guess we can all have our own interpretation of comments

There have been more negative posts than those.

I missed those. But that’s not what OP was talking about.

A-Rod's been impressed

That is literally the first time since he arrived that ARod has given him praise

Big12Yfan

I think people are just nervous about him next year

DanSmith

Next year?

shimmy

Yeah probably this year and next year

DanSmith

I responded to the OP stating that the video showed a "nice ball" and proves that he's impressing based on that throw.

It's not widespread. but you see that sentiment repeatedly because the few detractors repeat the message

DrBYU

He is the product of overhype....

Coug

And the mileage he has gotten with some on the Saban offer

Big12Yfan

8/11/22 4:07pm

I'm thinking Saban saw some Greg McElroy in him. That's kind of what I see in his HS highlights.

BYUSN has run the Alabama angle into the ground. Don't blame Conover for that.

It’s 100% not on Conover it’s on the message board fans who think

Ladies and gents, I introduce to you the Conover hater the OP was talking about

OldFogey

Where is the hate?

Big12Yfan

I was just goofing. I agree with you

RE: I was just goofing. I agree with you

Big12Yfan

8/11/22 7:50pm

The hype didn't live up to the results? So are you saying he's underhyped?

fatcracker

8/11/22 8:01pm

In fairness I think what you are calling the Conover "hate" is a reaction to too many Conover "fan boys"

He’s got two great QBs to follow up. Gonna have some pressure.

Just a couple of outliers. Most love him and his vehicle

Give it two months and losses and he'll be the most popular person on the team

He’s young and plays young…doesn’t mean we don’t support him or wish him best
