With this team and these coaches?—nope. I play Cam Miller. But I’d expect Stick to get snaps/QB runs, cuz he was better than CP at running.

I agree that Stick was a better runner than what we’ve seen from CP.

I think people forget how agile, quick and electric Stick was in the run game.

CP is a phenomenal runner and most likely is faster and stronger than Stick. But don’t discount Stick without going back and watching some highlights. Dude's three cone was off the charts. Actually almost all of his combine type numbers were super high.

I’m a big supporter of Cam. And that’s not a knock on CP … Cam is a great player/QB IMO. He makes throws that Jensen, Walker and Stick didn’t or couldn’t. Doesn’t have the arm talent Wentz did, but I think he is overall a better FCS QB than Wentz. They all had their individual skill sets.

And I’ll defend this post: Bring it.

You don't seem to be getting much push back CAS. I for one, sure don't disagree. Been on the Cam train for several yrs.

I will disagree and say I think Stick is/was overall a better QB. Arm strength not as good as Wentz, sure, but accuracy was as good. You could argue Cam has better receivers, too. Like, a lot better.

As with all my takes, I’m willing to be convinced otherwise. Easton is the GOAT in my opinion.

Friday. 2:05 pm. Right after the beat down at Maplewood Park.

I think Cam is playing unbelievably well this season. He went out over the offseason and addressed his issues and came back better. I expect him to come back even better next season. He is extremely accurate and throws with great anticipation and timing.

I think Cole Payton is also very good. I have been impressed with his passes this year. He has thrown some very accurate and not easy passes.

I hope they both come back and that they are both improved over this season for next season.

That said, if I were the Iowa Hawkeyes I would do whatever I could to get Cam to transfer and play for them. Iowa State would be wise to do the same thing. Cam would be the best QB that Iowa has had in a very long time. They might actually score some points on offense and have a great passing game. Cam is much better than CJ Beathard every was.

This person needs to be silenced and this post deleted before anyone in Iowa sees it. Mods?

Anyone who doesn’t think Easton is the modern day goat has terrible Before Time (pre Covid) memory.

Iowas QBs have sucked for a very long time. I have never been able to understand how they continually recruit terrible QBs.

Hopefully Iowa is distracted by their QB returning for a 6th year after an ACL injury during this season
