Tune Is Terrible, Very Very Average Qb

[MeanGreen01]

I know we give Riley Dodge a hard time but he is still just a RS Freshman. We Need Riley Back ASAP!!

Tune looks scared, only completes two yard pass plays and doesn't have any wheels.

Reverse Psychology??

I wish that is what I was trying the achieve

Are you ok with just being wrong?

[MeanGreen01]

And how good is Dunbar, man he's a producer. Just wish I could have a RB like that on my Fantasy League team.

[MeanGreen01]

To answer your question, yes I'm very comfortable with being wrong. I doubt anyone will say he looks like a general out there.

Have we invested in a coach you cannot look for talented QB's. Or peronal observations....

It's not that he cannot...he apparently will not.

Cynically, I think we're being played here the way Colorado fans were played by Dan Hawkins and his father-son experiment. At some point, Hawkins began to care about his job...but, it's probably too late for him. A week after surprising Kansas, K-State notched up the Buffaloes. Hawkins has run Colorado into the ground. Dodge is running us further into the ground.

Is he terrible or very very average. Because those are two very different things?

Don't denegrate this kid. He is what he is; an unrecruited and former walk-on QB. Tune is a trooper for hanging in there when others would have walked-off, given his circumstances. He is doing the best he can. Give the kid a break.

Oh Noes.

We burned the shirt of our freshmen Kicker. We are doomed.

2nd that

[jtm0097]

Tune isnt terrible at least he can at least throw the ball with out getting intercepted 3 + times. He has a way better arm then daddys boy. We are never going to be able to compete with a high school coach and a high school qb. I hope Tune stays at QB the rest of the year.

Tune's performanced vs Troy. 22 of 33, 267 yards, 2 TDs, 1 Int, 0 fumbles. Not flashy but.......

Side note: Since our freshman kicker had a punt blocked ............his performance seems to have gone south.......

You think maybe he's hurrying the punt, seeing that the rush is getting past our blockers?

It kinda seems like he is. Through the first 5 games he was our most consistent offensive weapon. I'm still very excited about his career.

Exactly. That this thread exists is incomprehensible.

[foutsrouts]

I'll take some "very very average" players and coaches here any day of the week. Do you know where we can find some more of these average players and coaches? I guess that would make us a 6-6 team. Bring on the average!!

This thread should be deleted IMO

I don't care if you like or dislike a player , the fact that "Tune is terrible" is noticable to the entire public is a disgrace to our fanbase.

If you want to call out the coaches , fine. They are grown ass men who get paid and know what comes with the job description.

But let's not call out a young kid who is being coached by what seems like a group of men who are in over their heads.

I promise there are a lot worse kids in the country than Mr Tune. He's a kool dude and a heck of a QB if you ask me

There are a lot of things wrong with this team. Nathan Tune is not one of them.
