Iowa QB Situation Remains Mystery

[hawkeye12345]

Sullivan named starter.

Proof once again that Ferentz has no clue what he’s doing.

Not because he finally made the right call at QB but because he doesn’t need to name a starter on Monday and let the opponent game plan.

They put a depth chart out before every game. Been doing it for years. What they should have done is what they've done in the past for certain positions...leave both Sullivan and McNamara on it as QB and use the word "OR"

Looks like Kirk's rolling with the ol' number 1 this week.

My apologies. Definite character defect I have. I think of X amount of discussion points and the part of my brain that says I should condense them and eliminate a few doesn't work at all.

I have a business administration degree, but the lawyer prof who taught some of my business law courses told me I should have gone into law because of how long my test answers were and how much I liked to argue points.

I would've made a shitty lawyer though.

I took your post, and told ChatGPT to make me a TL;DR version, and here's what it gave me.

**TL;DR:** Brendan Sullivan's impact goes beyond his QB skills; he opens up the field, allowing top player Kaleb Johnson to excel. Unlike Cade McNamara, who struggles under pressure, Sullivan energizes the team and the fans, reminiscent of past standout QBs. The team needs a quarterback with grit and leadership, like Sullivan, rather than just solid guys who lack that "dawg" mentality. In a high-stakes situation, you’d want to go into battle with players like Sullivan, Ricky, Drew, and CJ, not with McNamara and others.

There is a temptation to be verbose when you get paid by the hour, but the most effective lawyers are succinct and organized in their thoughts.

You would not have been a shitty lawyer.

Imposter syndrome wouldn't help. Although I suspect there are plenty of good lawyers out there who don't think highly of themselves. Not a dig at lawyers...but I can see that being the case.

You guys would not believe how much I use chatGPT at work and how efficient (at certain things) it can make you. And I'm not talking using it to summarize things or type emails for me.

There's another organization I belong to that I'm very involved in and is very important to me, and I used chatGTP to pretty much tell me step by tiny step how to get started creating a website for it, and then to create it myself. And I am no web developer at all and have never been trained as such.

You ask it an extremely broad question on how to do something and tell it to break it down into as specific steps as you want. It will literally hold your hand through everything and never get impatient. Don't understand one of those steps or how to do it? Tell it in conversational English you don't understand, and tell it to baby step you through it and it will. By doing that, you learn yourself and can do most of it the next time.
A friend of mine has absolutely zero coding pr programming education, and made some REALLY cool apps and software just telling it what he wanted, it spits the code out and you cut/paste. Don't like what it spits out, tell it what you don't like and tell it to do XYZ and it does. It's f*cking scary.

Search on YouTube for "using chatgpt to write code" It will blow your mind how good it is. There are coding gurus on YouTube who do it themselves to see what it can do and they are floored and look terrified at the same time. It does things they admit even they wouldn't think of. Even when it comes to stuff like making code run more efficiently. It'll take your really good code that you expertly wrote yourself, chew it up and spit it out running way more efficiently just by telling it to. Not kidding.

WOW, I received A's in evert grade from 1st to College in Engilsh/Language

And ChatGPT has trumped almost everything I have learned

That is an expert opinion

DAMN

A little bit Scary

Is human thinking becoming obsolete

Can you use ChatGPT to participate in verbal conversations

Would make one appear to be a genius or at least rather verbose

Cade is never sniffing the pros, he got his money already. Avoid lifelong further injury and just hang it up.

 

[Gibsonian]

Cade has made the most of his situation, that is for sure - monetarily. The comment about Cade struggling under pressure is the thought that nails it. In limited action Sullivan appears to be the opposite, performing well under pressure, the trait all hall of fame QB's have. I'm sure it has been discussed here but I've missed it but did you guys see the long pass to Pacuzzi, his first (sp or butcher job, dunno yet) and then Sullivan became the lead blocker after passing the tight end? That was impressive.

Not like that, man.

His teammates love him, he loves being on the team, and I see no reason to give up. Not being the starter doesn't mean he should hang it up. If every guy on the team had that kind of attitude there'd be about 30 players left.

There's no reason to not still be there every day, what if Sullivan gets hurt? I don't think I'd like my only two options being Sullivan or Lainez in case that happens. Again, I don't think this is a deal where the kid should go down the road, it's nothing more than a QB competition that he's losing when it comes to playing in games. That's all it is. 2nd best guy at this particular point doesn't mean it's time to get a bus ticket. I sure wouldn't tell my own kid to do that.

Have you tried Google's Notebook LM, yet? You should check it out if you haven't. It is basically your own personal language model, it can search and reference any document you upload to it. So, you upload a bunch of documents (or multimedia files, or URLs), and then you can have your notebook create an outline of the content, a study guide, a FAQ document, etc. You can query the notebook and it doesn't just use all of the info on the internet to arrive at an answer, it specifically searches what you have uploaded, and its answer contains citations with links to specific areas within those sources. Very helpful for anything that requires sifting through tons and tons of material. It is free for now, but I am sure they will charge eventually.

It can also create a podcast from your content, where 2 robots talk back and forth about the content in a way that is completely indistinguishable from 2 humans having a normal conversation. It will blow your mind.

On a related note, I teach physiology at U of Iowa, and I am quite confident that ChatGPT (or Copilot, which I primarily use because UI has a license) would ace all of my exams. I have not yet been able to give it a multiple-choice question that has stumped it. I encourage my students to use it for practice-questions and as a free tutor. On the flip side, so far it sucks at Biomechanics (another topic I teach).

If you have kids and a multi-modal chatbot (e.g. Pilot can be queried with audio input), you can have your kids ask the bot a question, or what my kids love, is have them ask the bot to make up a story for them. It can even make cover art (sort of)! My kids get a kick out of it.

 

[Northside Hawk]

Here's my suggestion:

Tank McNamara

It's honestly impressive what they're doing in that arena now and I'm not a very smart guy, but I'd bet a lot of money that it's abilities and accuracy are going to grow logarithmically rather than linearly. The world in 5 years is going to be a VERY different place, and it's not going to be like how 2010 was different than 2005.
