[reformedUNDfan]

WOW wouldn't that be nice-----we need some luck

The luck of having an elite starting QB transfer out.

There is an alternative that would make all threads better, not just this one…

He's been banned how many times? Don't think that works unfortunately....

Permanent would work wouldn't it?

One less than he should’ve been, apparently. It’s been public knowledge that its Lakes since the handle started posting, so he hasn’t been banned in almost a decade…

If he follows his regular MO he'll now lay low for about 24 hrs after a fair number of folks complain about him. That said he probably won't now that I've said this, that is if someone screen shots this for him.

Nebraska HC just said this today wow $2 million for a QB in Portal

A possible portal fix would be that a poaching team needs to pay the team from which they have poached in addition to the money they pay the athlete. Works somewhat like that at the pro level no?

LOL, what a small number spread over that length of time. Coaches don't let him pass because he only gets back to back downs at the end of blowouts, and our meathead coaches are playing "be nice" don't score which is ridiculous! I believe the one time Cole played more in a game he was 3 for 3 passing. That shows something. I don't believe for a minute that he can't throw consistently well (if given the reigns for most of, or an entire game). Look at his High School passing stats! It's a joke some here think Cole's passing sucks with so few data points. I watched him pass in practice a couple years ago and in my opinion he had the best arm strength of all the QB's. Doubt he got weaker since then. Cam just happened to be a year older and got the nod to start and won a natty on the back of Luepke's running. I get it, coach is not going to displace Cam, but at the same time don't make judgements about how good Cole is based on no games started and so few passing attempts.

I'm not disagreeing, just saying basically what you did with many less words, TR is not calling Pass 0lays for CP, for whatever reason I don't know.

That’s what funky said!

Please close this thread. he has caused this to be about him. This is not beneficial to the landscape and what is going on daily with the portal. We are truly lucky to have two great QB's who are doing so well. Best of luck to them both this weekend!

I agree..Cole is obviously a Kick ass runner, Cam is effective passing and Running. Glad both are on board, would love to see TR give CP some more pass plays just to get him some actual game reps.

But I'm not a coach, just a fat bastard that drinks vodka and writes checks, so take it for what it's worth..lol
