I'm sorry, I can't let this slide.
I'm as disappointed in yesterday's offensive game plan as anyone. I'm a loyalist pollyanna, but I'm wondering if changes need to be made.
However, can we please let the notion that a freshman walkon who is 5'10 but happens to be the son of an NFL QB is the super duper magic answer to our offensive issues just disappear.
I will present this next sentence as fact, but the rest is opinion: Clayton is the QB and will remain the QB because he won the competition fair and square. He is the most talented QB on the roster and barring injury will end up being a great QB for us. Zack sadly showed us why he lost the opportunity to start with his performance yesterday and again, this is fact: Alviti not seeing any action outside of the EIU game is a damning indictment on his ability to run the offense. I've seen more than most posters and it was the right decision not to play him.
I have faith in Fitz to do the right thing, but something needs to be changed. What that is, I'm not sure yet and i think we all need to slow our rolls on calling for jobs.
But it's just asinine to think the walkon with a famous name is the answer. It's just dumb.
But you don't know if he's the answer he may be or may not be. If fitz is smart he will have an open competition next year. Don't forget about smith also he was ranked 11th best QB in nation I think. Shaping up to be very competitive at qb spot next year
