When Fine went down, the announcers stated that they expected to see #5 Bean come in.  I found that interesting because they would have received that tip from the coaching staff prior to the game.  Of course, Shanbour came in and did a great job, but I did find the mention of Bean interesting.

Our radio guys first said Cade was going in.  I believe it was just Cade helping to warm up Quinn, though.

Bean jumped up and was warming up. He was actually in the huddle and looked like Seth made a decision to go with Shanbour.

Honestly, it was probably smart not to commit to one of the young backups. not only because we really needed the points right then and there, but also because you do not want to turn off the ones you aren't choosing. If Shanbour comes in, that hasn't much meaning for the future to them, hes gone next year and therefore he is no long-term competition to them. But if they find they are stuck behind another (redshirt) fresman, that may create some problems in the competition. No need to have any of them transfer out prematurely.

TV seemed to think Bean.  They  showed a clip of him on the sideline.  Honestly, I don't think there is a real "back up" qb.  We needed to run the ball when Quinn went in, and we know he can run in the current offensive scheme.  Bean is a mobile dude, but he hasn't executed the offense before in a real game with sbombs on the line(because apparently cursing is frowned upon), and with the game on the line, why not pick Quinn, who was obviously prepared for the opportunity?

I wasn't listening to the radio so its interesting they keyed in on Pearson.  What all this tells me is that the young guns are hungry for a chance, which is good.  Hopefully next weekend, with UTSA's terrible offense, we will get to see someone other than Mason or Quinn.

No doubt the CBS TV broadcast team are Mason Fine fans.   Even the Half Time Report guys were singing the praises of Mason.

More (obviously) CBS cameras were giving good shots of our Press Box side which is the best “big time” looking part of Apogee.   Other cable networks (fewer?) cameras seem permanently  fixed on the Apogee Student side for most of past televised games.

If we get a nice lead against NutsaK, I would not be surprised to see Shanbour get in the game. This young man has been a trooper for the Mean Green. And with the game essentially on the line, what he did Thursday was amazing.

I agree with Greenjoe. With most teams a 28-0 lead is sufficient to give the starter a break and play the 2nd/3rd team QB's the rest of the way. But, obviously,..... not us.

Deep is absolutely correct. Shanbour has been a trooper. He has given more to this program than we really deserve. It's not just the performance that he put on against FAU (which didn't surprise me at all) it has been his role modeling of the concept of patience with, and commitment to, this program. He has trained just about every QB that has come into this program for the last 4-5 years. Last spring when I sat with Cade Pearsons father (who is himself a coach) during one of the Saturday scrimmages, I mentioned QS.  And Coach Pearson couldn't wait for me to finish my sentence so that he could give his testimonial about QS and what a great role model he's been.

Quinn's professional goal is to be a coach. So the next step for him will be GA. But I think he already has his Masters, and unless he's working on yet another masters, he's probably doing work toward a Phd. Anyway, I think he should skip the GA step and go after a regular assistants job somewhere.

I'm pretty sure QS received his Masters (not Bachelors) at the New Orleans Bowl graduation ceremony.

Bean is the biggest threat to challenge for the next QB when Fine graduates.  He has what the other QBs lack.  The ability to run the ball and take it it to the house when he does.  I think it will be an interesting race for sure.  To me it comes down to in this order.  Bean, Martin (currently gets nod but could be passed), Aunne.

A lot of people tend to forget about Aune in the QB room.

He has some talent for sure.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I just hope Jared has been working the phones trying to gather up the money to get rid of this guy. We need to cut our losses before he tanks us like Mac did and we end up getting pummeled by some FCS program again.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      Regarding the guys with no FBS HC experience, I personally have no issue with that. If we pluck a HC from a lower level, it needs to be somebody with extensive HC experience. There's guy who spend almost 10 years as a lower level HC. Examples include Lance Leipold of Kansas who went 109-6 over 8 seasons at D3 Wisconsin-Whitewater before being hired at Buffalo. Bob Chesney of James Madison went 111-46 over the course for 14 seasons at various D2 and FCS schools. There's guys out there to be plucked. My choice is to promote from within with Cobbs. Cobbs may not work at HC and I know it's a huge leap in responsibility but you won't know unless you try and others haven't worked out. He's worked wonders at RB and he's been doing it for a while. I'm sure he's made connections over the course of his playing and coaching career and would surround himself with experienced winners. My biggest thing is he loves this school and would want to succeed for the love of the school and not just for his own career. I looked back at Boise State head coaches since 2001 and found every single BSU HC spent time coaching at BSU prior to becoming HC and a few played at BSU as well. Several were promoted to HC from within, some went and became coordinators elsewhere before returning as their HC, and only 2 had prior HC experience, Bryan Harsin and Dan Hawkins. Harsin actually left to become Texas's co-OC and then Arkansas State's HC for a 1 year before returning to BSU as their HC but he'd been a coordinator there prior and played at BSU. I believe he's currently on the market and only 48 if we wanted somebody with experience though poor recruiting was a complaint at Auburn. Boise State kind of debunks the whole "prior HC experience" requirement, though.

      Keebler has to go!

      Agreed. I would only do it again for a huge name that would excite the fan base, but make the contract heavily based on incentives over guaranteed money. For the Morris-type hires, three years with triggers to extend the contract automatically, like a conference championship buys the coach an extra year with a slight raise. Otherwise it is an annual discussion and negotiation.

      IF we have to keep Morris 🤢

      I would have already fired Morris but if he stays it needs to be with several conditions. 1) hand over play calling duties to an OC, either bringing in someone or elevating Davis or Cobbs to the position. (I think Davis already has the title but we know it is meaningless). 2) bring in a new ST coach 3) replace the strength and conditioning staff. Too many injuries this season and the team is gassed by the end of the game and getting steamrolled. 4) new DC needs to run a system that can stop the run and must be able to adapt throughout the season to account for opponents and personnel losses. And all of the above needs to be overseen by the AD’s office. And no contracts for more than one year. Obviously this means replacing most of the staff, which at its core means we should really fire Morris and bring in an experienced HC who already knows how to build a staff. But if we are being cheap, at least the assistants don’t require buy outs. I would also like to see the AD renegotiate Morris’ contract to reduce the base salary/buyout and increase the incentives for accomplishments, including bowl wins and championships.
