Turnpike Lane Intervention Needed

He was a 1- read QB because the guys around him were so good. He threw a nice ball to his first read, and almost never had to go off of it. So maybe the jump to D1 were if the first read wasn't there was his struggle?

From reports out of camp for years now from Criddle and others I know who attended, that was the issue. Led to too many picks.

My take on Conover

lemonademan

12/5/22 7:43am

Spencer Rattler was also in that same class in AZ 6A

2FarGone

12/5/22 7:48am

Exactly! And Conover was rated higher then both of them.

lemonademan

12/5/22 7:51am

Rattler was a top 10 recruit.

Scratch

12/5/22 7:54am

Yeah, you are right, I meant like in the AZ scene.

lemonademan

12/5/22 7:57am

Both very good, but Conover was not rated above Rattler

Were you at the Notre Dame game? I was. Everyone in the stands yelled for Conover.

12 yards passing says that's a very dumb take

Yeah, with Tuiaki's defense and handing them the first half, it did end a halftime.

AC Joint sprain. When healthy the kid is legit.

I never made a judgment on his total body of work

2FarGone

12/5/22 7:58am

Seems pretty obvious to me that ARod doesn’t trust Conover at all.

Turnpike Lane

12/5/22 8:04am

What? The fans yelled for the backup QB?

You guys are funny — coaches were being scared and stubborn

So, we're judging QB3 thrown in at the last minute as a true freshman against experienced QB1 with 4 yrs in the program?

Are you assuming Conover is going to transfer and tear it up?

ReggaeCoug

12/5/22 9:09am

If he lights it up at another school this year, we may need to clean house on

WDaddy

12/5/22 7:51am

I'll be very surprised if he gets picked up by a P5 school. It will be G5 or FCS

DataMouth

12/5/22 7:51am

His old coach loved him and was the intern coach at ASU. They need somone?

lemonademan

12/5/22 7:54am

That’s good news. I’ve heard dillingham will bring an Oregon Qb too

DataMouth

12/5/22 8:19am

Not sure about that, he has three years of eligibility left. Most out there in the portal have one.

2FarGone

12/5/22 7:55am

If he’s trying to be a starter this next year, I’d be surprised if he goes G5

GlutealGuy

12/5/22 8:16am

Ridiculous take!!!! I'll take that bet x10. You don't get Saban in your living

byucougarsbig12

12/5/22 8:55am

I think he might be leaving because he might not be ARod's guy.

Jeffacka

12/5/22 7:52am

Pretty tough when there are several good QBs on the roster, including somebody

Skeptical Optimist

That was the game that really stood out

Good post. The reality is these things happen. A lot.

LegitCoug

12/5/22 8:05am

Yep. I think the transfer portal gives people a chance to prove it

lemonademan

12/5/22 8:13am

There was at least some mismanagement

CameronG

12/5/22 9:33am

As someone who watched Conover in HS (at a rival school), I completely agree

trueblueinarizona

12/5/22 8:17am

He was amazing to watch in High school.

lemonademan

12/5/22 8:22am

Amazing because he has 2 elite WR to throw to

Turnpike Lane

12/5/22 8:34am

Yep, it was all the WRs. It weird Saban didn't see that. 10k yards and he's not

Funny we don't say that about the HS QBs in Utah when the ones that get

CameronG

End of the day it’s about taking the next step. Some just don’t.

Turnpike Lane

12/5/22 9:41am

Schools have a hand in this too some staffs don't know how to teach and develop

CameronG

12/5/22 9:53am

I agree. He won 3 consecutive state titles. That's not luck.

Elvis

Players told me their playbook was more complex then college

lemonademan

12/5/22 9:01am

Watching film, not sure it mattered. Conover rarely went off his first read.

Turnpike Lane

12/5/22 9:20am

Then he should have excelled. He hasn’t unfortunately.

Swishfromdeep3

12/5/22 9:28am

No doubt that Conover should

bigjohn

12/5/22 9:15am

My buddies are on team- unfortunately he isn’t as good as he needs to be

Swishfromdeep3

12/5/22 9:26am

Often times guys transfer because they think they are better than they are. Conover just hasn’t showed mid major

Blue2thebone

12/5/22 10:19am

He was a bust and he cant play. It seems clear at this point.

Backcountry

12/5/22 10:38am

I don't know what to think about Conover. On one hand, I see 4 star, Elite 11,

Forzaitalia

lots of players struggle with mental health and excel on the field
