If he skips practice I don't want him out there either. Hopefully he will get it together and go on to have a good career here.

He just had a kid. I'm sure he's missed time to be there for the birth

Well, Mac couldn't have been more direct on his radio show. He never considered putting in DW. Missing practices. Not ready to contribute.

Boom. That's reason enough for me. No need to burn CM's redshirt in that game.

The question is now: How did the staff recruit/coach a QB stable that was as bad as it was on Saturday night.

I think you see either DW or Means starting against SMU. If either or both flop (a distinct possibility), this thing turns into a mess for the rest of the year.

Totally agree. Give DW a shot.

Thank GOD someone other than me put it out there.

Thank you.

I'm sure there's a story here.

I agree and I wish they would've at least given him an attempt. We are obviously missing information.

That's not the same as saying:

If you had said that he had missed practices, I think a lot of the furor would have died down. It's a big piece of info that wasn't know to the fan base.

OMG... Take the hint, man.

His decline on the depth chart was way before he had a baby. McCoy has a baby last year too. NCAA doesn't have paternity leave. Unless that's a new thing now too?

Oh I'm sure Northwestern players are working on that next.

I'm sure you can appreciate that there are certain pieces of information that I'm not privy to share without getting into sibling trouble. I implied it multiple times without coming out and saying it. Edited by SSP

So a stork brought it ?

I always thought a baby was a 9 month process

one question. Why does It seem like DW does not get the #1 QB because he doesn't understand the offense or he does not take care of the ball?

The offense they ran against UT was kmart vanilla. Not vanilla bean, not homemade blue bell vanilla, and not even plain vanilla! 3 completions vs. 4 ints = not taking care of the ball!

If the qb that plays against SMU does not light it up and DW doesn't get a shot something else is up.

I can appreciate that. When Harry and I ran the Mean Green Report we almost got someone in the General Counsel Office fired because we leaked a story about a Dickey contract. I really can understand 1) not getting your source in trouble, and 2) keeping your source willing to talk to you.

However, in this case, there was an awful lot of posters who were posting all sorts of things without being related to anyone. And you could have been a little more heavy handed, the :ninja: icon is the universally accepted icon for "I know something but can't tell you."

I think, based on what Coach Mac said, that DW was never under consideration to play at the UT game because of non understanding the game things. Missing practices and bad prep work.

I just don't know why you travel someone you have decided you will not play at all. Take one of the non scholie QB's and give them a story to tell their grandkids.

It was apparent through DW's workout log that there was something going on with him.

Also, after Mac raving about him and DW almost unseating DT as a true freshman, it didn't have anything to do with talent.

Hope the kid gets it together.

This makes our QB situation even more precarious if Greer doesn't step up on Saturday.

Most of the insinuations I saw weren't far from the truth which is why I didn't stomp them.

These were not my words, but....

It's very difficult to remember a playbook when..... :ninja:

Maybe he's lazy because he doesn't.... :ninja:

He's not as good as the other three because.... :ninja:

Now everyone knows.

He's doing heroin.

He dislikes most of his teammates.

He spends most of his free time mutilating cats.

So your little brother told you these things about DW?

I don't believe him.

YOU TAKE THAT BACK! FRED AND GREEN P1 ARE BFF!

Multiple sources have told me "Green :ninja: P1" was spotted in Fred's hall waiting to catch up to him "just to talk" at inopportune times. It's uncomfortable for everyone.

This has to stop. Someone had to say it.
