Still no word on QB race



  • Hard to believe but Dayne Krist got some nfl interest after playing at KU.

    Hmmm, was he a P-5 quality QB ? where was it he played at before KU ? how did he do behind the KU offensive line? - - just curious lol - - -Next. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Chryst was definitely NOT the problem for that team. I remember watching a ton of sacks and dropped passes. I mean, even when the guy would make a good pass, we couldn’t haul it in. Hard to stay positive when your teammates can’t pick up your slack.



  • @Kcmatt7 Yes, my point is the QB isn’t the whole issue. The entire team is trash- that’s coaching and recruiting failure.



  • @dylans agreed. Just once you mentioned him I had flashbacks that made me shudder lol. Throw Heaps in there too…

    “And a bullet thrown down the middle to Jimmay Mundine, the ball goes through his hands aaaaand THE PASS IS INTERCEPTED.”

    Feel like I heard that 100 times.



  • HOLY CRAP but yet WHY doesn’t this decision surprise me? - -After all this time of waiting -After saying talking about how they just might be looking more of a running game this season. - Which they dam well should if you want to take advantage of Pookie & Dom Williams - -try to keep the defense off the field run the clock.

    After we wait all this time for him to announce a starting QB - and he just wet’s all over himself and says - - -BENDER - Ol led foot , a guy who has concrete around his feet - - -who at the age of 64 I also bet I’m even more nimble mobile then him. - A guy who is a interception looking for a place to happen. - JUMPIN - - GEE - -HOSSIE - -TOADS - -TYPICAL. - -if you want to invest more into the run THIS should NOT be your starting QB – Stanley and the other QB Miles? - -BOTH are much better options if your going to try and emphasize the run more - -why doesn’t this choice surprise me? - -DAMM WELP late night is getting closer - -chalk up ANOTHER super decision made by Beaty - somebody must of rushed his decision and he panicked. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Peyton Bender has been named the starter



  • @jayballer73 I think Bender can be a decent QB if the line has improved. Stanley is the turnover machine if you look at the stats. He had only 4 TDs and 7 picks in almost a 100 less attempts than Bender(10 TDs, 10 INts), he also fumbled the ball more in less snaps. I think that Miles could be the future of the program but looking at his fairly modest numbers from Juco a year ago, I don’t believe him to be ready. I’ve always thought it was Benders job to lose. Stanley IMO is the worst of the 3.



  • Here is a link with more information.



  • Bender would have been my third choice so I’m very disappointed in this decision.

    Exactly - - Thank you



  • So who would you guys prefer?



  • @Crimsonorblue22 I think Bender had the best arm but I also wouldnt have been disappointed if Kendrick got the nod. As I said earlier, I’m not sure he is ready or has a good enough arm to this point. Bender has the most experience and the best arm. That’s probably why he won the job. The offensive line is a big key to how the QB does. If returning all but one starter and all the graduate/juco transfers Beaty brought in can’t get that group to improve, Beaty flat out will never cut it as a head coach at this level.



  • I think Bender is the best choice for Games 1-3. And that’s how I’m going to look at it. Against a Big XII opponent, Kendrick is probably the better play.



  • Bender is the most talented of the 3 choices. But this also goes against what Beaty said he wanted the offense to look like as well. He said he wanted a more run based offense and Bender does take away the zone read which Stanley and Kendrick can run.

    Beaty will almost certainly be gone after this season and hopefully someone who can state their vision for the offense and build and recruit to that vision without changing it every year will be brought in.

    I agree with you on Kendrick - still wish he would start from the get go. - I think it’s just a matter of Coach know’s he is riding a dead horse anyways, if he thought he had any chance of surviving I think it would of been a different choice. Feel like as much as we would like to see Kendrick - -Beaty will probably ride Bender till the cow’s come home - not giving Kendrick much of an opportunity



  • Guess DADDY BILL taking a page off Coach Beaty isn’t naming his starting QB either - -STILL hasn’t named his starter - -must be contagious lol. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • @jayballer73 He prob has an idea as for what in hell he’s gonna do lol



  • Isn’t Michael Cummings the qb who transferred for his sr year and led his new team to a bowl game? Smh the whole team needs an overhaul no qb will succeed without help.

    I don’t think so. That was Cozart maybe? Cummings had a bunch of injury issues.



  • @BShark one of them. Was it Boise St. or some mid major? Just another sign of the ineptness of the coaching staff whomever it was. (Probably cozart)



  • @dylans Cozart went on to Boise St, and did fairly well. I actually think I saw where he signed a CFL deal this Summer.



  • Cozart was a back up QB and didn’t have great numbers at Boise and actually cost them a couple of games.

    Cozart actually played quite a bit. Completed 63% of his passes had 10 TD to 1 INT and also 4 rushing TD’s. So yea what you said is not factual.



  • Cozart mostly threw screen passes and blew a 20 point lead again WSU. I watched those games he looked slightly better. He had several decent games here against crap comp aswell.
