CJ Bethard?

[gohawkz]

I'm still surprised at how many people are still making excuses for Rudock's performance (especially in the press). In Jon Miller's instant reaction podcast today he compares discussing the QB controversy to "peeing into the wind" which he then feels the need to explain in detail (peeing into the wind, not the QB controversy).

Honestly, the QB controversy seems to me like the most worthwhile discussion there is right now. At this point in the season I think there is probably very little we can do to significantly improve our defensive play. In practice, they should continue to focus on the fundamentals especially tackling.

On offense however, significant improvement could occur by simply switching the QB. Or at the very least giving CJ a bigger role than what he has had so far. The receivers seem exponentially more comfortable catching a Bethard thrown ball than Rudock's (even when Rudock's are on target).

If we start Rudock next week against Wisconsin we will certainly be down early since he has shown us time after time that he cannot finish drives.

I think we can definitely expect some bad games from Bethard (once the inevitable occurs and he becomes the starter assuming he doesn't transfer), but that honestly doesn't bother me much. We've seen more than enough bad and more importantly BORING games from Rudock.

I agree, would give a thumbs up but this stupid site won't let me because someone gave it a thumbs down, and of course the coward who gives these thumbs down posts won't actually post a reply, because they have none.

Most of my thumbs down come from people who never post. That's the way they express their distain for any comments that may be insulting towards their lord and savior Captain Kirk.

Yeah, they're Iowa State fans. They've got nothing else to do. They never have more talent, but Ferentz is their little *****. A losing record to one of the worst division one teams in the nation. I'm sure they are praying that Ferentz never leaves so they can have at least one nice saturday every year.

Thumbs up to all of the above.

I just assumed that it was a bunch of alts Jon created to discourage people from having fun or posting funnies.

I think you've solved the mystery. That's why they pay you the big bucks.

Just heard a rumor that a donor with connections to the Rudock family is paying big money to ensure that he starts.
