Westphal to Oshkosh?? wtf

[OnTheFifty]

His Dad played at Oshkosh?

It's a pretty big jump downward from Madison to Oshkosh. This is may be more trouble than it's worth.

He was on campus working out with the team. I don't know if we cooled on him or he just didn't feel comfortable here and left.

Well that sucks but when was the last time We had a transfer that actually worked out for us?

[Notorious]

So....before the Westphal bashing starts, let me ask the question...

Is there something wrong with "us"? The culture....the leadership...etc.?

Pat Paschall?

I know where you are coming from, but before we start taking potshots at everyone/everything, let's find out what happened..

Interesting. I asked a few players and coaches in recent interviews about Westphal and they all seemed complimentary --- but now that I think of it, they sort of gingerly stepped around his being here, i.e., not sure how good he is, haven't seen him against live competition, etc. Not bashing him, just sort of avoiding the question.

Either way, a lot of head scratching going on here for BisonNation. Interesting to see what else comes out on this.

All the players and coaches I visited with about Westphal tried to avoid the topic entirely. Never once did I get the answer I "wanted or expected." I honestly thought someone would gush over the kid. Never did I get that at all. Almost to the point I thought it was weird, but then I simply thought they were taking the old "He has to earn it here first" approach.

He is probably plenty good to play here, but I can guarantee you that Bohl doesn't offer up starting jobs to anyone. We could have had a couple transfer QB's if he would have said....SURE COME ON IN and take the top spot on the depth chart. For that I am thankful. We didn't have this kid a month ago, and I we don't have him now. The kid simply wants to play, and I guess you can't fault him for that. Lets see who will step up this year at DE.
