Big mistake by our coaching staff....

cdizzle86 · August 28, 2015

I don't know if anybody else noticed, but the starting QB for UTSA is Blake Bogenschutz. For those of you who don't know him, he was the QB from Carthage. The same place and graduating class that Rutherford and Goree came from. All we had to do was offer and he would probably be here, but our coaches can't effectively evaluate QB talent.

This is so frustrating. I hope we win against UTSA, but if we don't this is a huge slap in the face to the coaching staff. We're stuck with a Sr. QB who has no history of success and the little school down south has a Redshirt Fr. QB that we could've had.

He wasn't very good when he played last season. Lets see how things turn out before criticizing the coaches over this player.

So we could have gotten Blake to come to UNT?

Well I live in SA and all they can talk about is how good this QB Blake is and that their only problem is at the linebacker position and WR's.

GMG!!!

He could flame out like Ryan Leaf did but by his JR year. Until he becomes an all conference QB, lets tap the breaks a bit

don't think you can lay blame on our coaches. Bogenshutz's own high school coach didn't rate him as a D1 level QB. My cousin coaches on the D2 level & was recruiting Bogenshutz a couple of years ago.

cdizzle86 · August 28, 2015

Well UTSA saw something in him and he's turning out to be pretty good so far. Yes, a lot remains to be seen, but I would much rather be in their spot with QB's than ours. Also we are 0-2 against UTSA, so obviously they are doing something right.

Afr you talking about their QB or one of ours?

Yeah, that's why you'll never see me bash the staff for not offering him. I watched all of their 6 playoff games on YouTube and he didn't look like an FBS QB to me. I'd rather have him than Means at this point, but I think we could've done better than either. Still pulling for Means since he is in Green.

Or their QB situation is so bad that he is their only option.

Dude is built like Nathan Tune.... I'd put money that he doesn't stay healthy all season

UNTLifer · August 29, 2015

Except Tune was 6'3" and this young man is about 5'9".

bleedgreen4ever · August 29, 2015

Or this also shows how poorly we develop QB talent?

I think we did do better... He's just playing a different position.

In fairness to the Carthage kid, he was a true freshman last year. I know if you screw up around here as a freshman qb you are written off for life(unless you're from Iowa) but maybe UTSA likes a young guy to take his lumps and grow from it.

You're about to get the wrong person going on that topic, lol.

Well, if we use our QBs performance at Texas as a metric, if he can throw for 20 yards in a game then he's a rock star.

We passed for more completions, yards, and touchdowns to Texas than to our own team.

Greer and backup Andrew McNulty were just 3 of 17 passing for 15 yards and four interceptions and four sacks. Demarco Cobbs returned a late interception 28 yards for Texas' final touchdown.

I never thought stats could be that low by two supposedly D1 QBs. I was embarrassed for both of them. Losing is one thing but to lose and look terrified (Greer) out there is just pathetic. That said, our Defense played there hearts out and stopped a horrific blowout from happening.

This is why I say that the UAB game by Dajon wasn't the worst quarterbacking performance I'd seen out of a NT qb. Dajon made many bone-headed plays that game but he still had more completions to his own team. Dajon's qbr for the UAB game according to Espn was 5.2. Greer went 0.2 and McNulty went 0.1 in the Texas game.

Ben Gooding · August 31, 2015

The QB performance vs a pretty mediocre UT team was the worse QB play I have ever witnessed in my entire life, at any competitive level. With that said, Mac is getting ready to name both of them as our QB1 and QB2. Let that sink in.

Cerebus · August 31, 2015

Dajon's qbr for the UAB game according to Espn was 5.2. Greer went 0.2 and McNulty went 0.1 in the Texas game.

And that folks, is the cream of the crop as far as this staff recruiting QB's goes...

Well, in their defense, Texas was just an unbelievable team last year...oh wait!!

There was one play just before Greer took a knee where I felt like I could hear the backup QB from Necessary Roughness shouting at the ref "Blow the whistle! BLOW THE WHISTLE!"
