I’ve seen a video of a dude getting his dick and balls stomped by a woman in stilettos. That poor man looked so distressed… after reading this thread I know how he felt.

JFC he was the fucking quarterback. We went from shitty to (briefly) number one with him under center. What do you expect people to say?

So in your defense of Ewers, you’re willing to shit on many other players and teams?  This is part of why I push back.  There is no hesitation to downplay others to lift up Ewers.  It is a message boards right to do so to crucify or so it’s posters feel.

Repeat it to yourself, a QB is the most important position but is easily the most dependent on every other mofo out there.

There’s only one QB that’s had the same coach and same system for 3 years running since Colt.  Probably didn’t help those other shitty QBs.

Nowhere in the annals of college football history is Craig Krenzel considered a great QB.  Yet he finished #1.  Probably same for Greg McElroy.

But we probably aren’t able to build those recruiting classes and teams if Colt was the QB recruit. It would have had to be the perfect storm where he’s the 2nd QB in the class (like he was) and the 5 star QB in the class attracts all the other top recruits and then gets hurt or otherwise loses the job to 3-star Colt. Might not land Arch in this silly hypothetical either, so if Colt gets hurt in a playoff or championship, the backup isn’t particularly good or ready… wait...

Boomer, you’re a reasonable bastard.  There’s some element of truth here, but particularly in 2023, there were few here that contributed after Ewers arrival.  It was reported that Taaffee and Arch were tight during his recruiting process.  Arch is here more because Sark.

And let’s not forget money helps.  That ain’t Ewers.  Anthony Hill and Collins Simmons ain’t showing up because Ewers is QB.  All them DTs we’ve seen were here prior to Ewers.

Sark ain’t recruiting a Colt.  But if Colt were here upon arrival and won it all, people are lining up to come here.

Quinn solely?  he may have helped as did other players(regardless Sark gets the credit).  If someone said it was Quinn alone that turned the program around that would be stupid.  I'd like to meet that person(on the internet only, of course)

Interesting off-season debate. I think the 2 most important recruits were Chris Simms and Arch. Relying on the opinion of guys like Babers on Simms, he has said that made Texas the cool school. #1 recruit son of NFL QB was boost to Mack. Sark getting the stamp of approval from the Manning family was a huge and something no other single recruit could give the program.

I don’t know that they explicitly stated Quinn only but there has been an ongoing sentiment that Quinn brought us back.

They are not. It shows the QB makes at best no decision or at worse bad decisions.

Unless the person claiming it is a self sack, whomever the fuck that is, he will need to know the o line scheme of the play, what the backs were supposed to do and what routes were adjusted or not. Also what the defense did.

Just because a QB turns into a rushing defender does not mean it is a fucking self sack.

Jesus how hard is it for you and your other screen name to understand.

That's not the way I've read this thread but there is a lot of "i've seen a bunch of people say X" but it doesn't seem to appear.  I can understand some folks being a bit misguided on Quinn's status as we have been basically a QB wasteland since Colt(save Sam running Herman's Wing T, and he was a decent passer after all, as his stint on NFL rosters proves).

If Arch bumps it up again look out...

agreed.  Ewers might have brought a few guys, being the no 1 recruit, that were in his class that knew him from recruiting trips or camps or whatever but Manning and Simms are NFL royalty from a coaching stamp of approval perspective.  you can't buy that....well maybe you can now.

what about if a QB runs around for 10 seconds and instead of throwing it out of bounds is sacked and loses 10 yards?  What would you call that?


Because that was the ding on both Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders.

ahh yes, the miss state game, the one where arch got to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that he was bigger, faster, stronger, more accurate, smarter, more mobile, stronger arm, better when the play breaks down, etc, than quinn ewers. 

also, total td throws, along with every other stat i’ve seen that’s supposedly in quinn’s favor (like his career passing yards, or the fact that he was 2nd team all sec or whatever) are all old school, antiquated, outdated stats and accolades that aren’t nearly as relevant in 2025 as they were 20+ years ago. we have advanced analytics now, which is why we can look back and say, “yeah, derek jeter won five gold gloves, but he objectively was not a good defensive ss.” that’s what we have here. on the surface you can say, “he was second in td passes and selected to the all-sec team!” and make it seem like he was good, but the moment you look a little closer it becomes obvious that that’s not the case.

being second in the league in td passes is ostensibly nice, but a)17 is actually a pretty goddamn pedestrian number considering the talent around him + our easy schedule, and b)you don’t have to look very deep into the advanced analytics- the exact data that nfl teams use to scout and draft players- to see that quinn was a bottom-tier sec qb, and nowhere near even the middle of the pack nationally. what’s crazy is that all of this aligns with the eyeball test, and yet here we are, still debating his supposed greatness.

Derka- "ahh yes, the miss state game, the one where arch got to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that he was bigger, faster, stronger, more accurate, smarter, more mobile, stronger arm, better when the play breaks down, etc, than quinn ewers" (Arch vs 0-8 MSU 26-31 325 and 2TDs)

Surly- "But what about the Florida game?" (Quinn vs 4-4 Florida 19-27 333 and 5 TDs in 3 qtrs)

Derka- Florida was playing with middle schoolers in the entire secondary!

Surly- Looks at the two games after us with confusion(Gave up 16 to LSU and 17 to Ole Miss)

I can't wait for "the yeah but the defense isn't as good as last year's" posts in the Arch thread. not sure if they will equal the "our schedule is 100x harder this year" or our "receiving corp/running back group isn't up to snuff" posts but we will see.

our team next year will be inferior to the previous two teams, but the qb play will be markedly, astoundingly better. thankfully we have another easy schedule, so we should still win a lot of games and should hopefully make the playoffs. regardless, the level of qb play will be night and day.

A self sack is when Quinn doesn’t step up into a clean pocket after his OL is doing everything they can to block. Don’t you remember Georgia 1 where Quinn got tripped up near the end zone? The pocket was clean. Just step the fuck up Quinn, the space was there. Kelvin Banks whiffed on blocks during that game but that play near the end zone where Quinn fell was not one of the missed blocks by Banks.

So Quinn's 333 and 5 TDs vs a superior opponent is somehow worse than Arch's 325 and 2 TDs vs a team that won 0 conference games and two games overall. Got it!

You weren’t exactly demonstrative in your statement, but you did refer to shitty teams with the implication that we had shitty players.
 

Every year we have multiple folks ripping players.  That’s been done here throughout the thread too.

There is a disconnect somewhere.  Since Colt, we’ve had 3 QBs, Ewers will be the 4th, spend time in the NFL.  I believe Ash medically retired.  Swoopes made it in the NFL at a different position.  Maybe we didn’t win as much as we’d like.  But maybe our shitty QBs weren’t exactly the problem.

People suck.  More so on social media platforms.  Ever buddy has an opinion.  And we’re all right in our own minds.  I’m just trying to determine if we shit talk some but not others.  Is that ok?
