If that was a response to my comment, you clearly misunderstood my point. Perhaps I would have better described it as "effusive praise" rather than "over-the-top praise."
So Coach Morris is overstating things regarding Mr. Mestemaker? How many more are going to come on and pick apart Coach Morris's expertise regarding QB's? He may or may not have been a significant part of the development and ultimate skillsets of two very impressive QB's (Mahomes and Ward) but he was certainly around them long enough to recognize traits of outstanding QB's. And so because of this experience (and expertise), he named Mr. "M" the first back-up to CM, way back at the beginning of the season. And this was with two QBs in the mix with state championships in their resume.
SO, after Friday's performance by one of the most unlikely QB candidates in North Texas history, who the hell knows what he's talking about? Coach Morris, or the "my $100 bill is wrinkled" crowd?
EM mentioned the bad snaps specifically as being a thing that slowed the entire offense.
Also State had only 90 yards rushing until the 4th where they had that 73 yarder and a couple QB runs.
I agree being able to run is a good thing but I don’t know that it was ever going to be Plan A. I like that we were able to punch it in from the goal line from under center though. That was big.
