2021 Verbal: Cole Payton

[The_Sicatoka]

I'd take Cole at UND in a heartbeat ... in the RB room.

[El_Chapo]

Yeah, cuz Cam is the reason we lost those games.

cam has more losses than the 3 QB's before him combined.

I could point to the awful interception at und when ndsu was driving and TD makes it 24-17 & the entire city of grand forks puckers their butt so hard they are sucked into a worm hole.

I could point to the INT in 2nd drive vs USD.

But I wont... I'll take the high road.

Cole single handedly lost NDSU two games and he's the backup

Lol I get this is probably hyperbole because of who you’re arguing with but that is nonsense.

Cam is one of the best QBs I've seen at NDSU. Cole is one of the most exciting players I've seen with the ball in his hands.

Not really seeing a problem that couldn't be fixed by bEtTeR pLaYcAlLiNg! /s

Or better defense.

Where do people find these figures of speech?

[garbageman]

Have you been a fickin idiot your whole life?

[ByeSonBusiness]

Lots of thoughts regarding previous replies...
First the Nebraska remark - They have a full stable of QB's and Chubba looked quite capable of being their 1 moving forward.
Now on Cole's less than reliable ability to make clinch throws - Can you remember the past few years? That was Cam until this season.
Do we know Cole wants to move on if Cam returns?
In a perfect world we will have another season of both of them with Cole seeing more series than he did this year.
Regardless of what any of us armchair coaches want to see, you cannot push Cam out so Cole can shine. Why would anyone commit to the Bison moving forward if they set such a selfish precedent? If Cole cannot earn number one, he remains the 2.
Both understand how the portal operates and neither are being held here against their will.

I dont think it really sets a bad precedent. Its just sorta reality right now. Lots of 5th year guys probably being gently nudged out the door.
