FALSE...Nathan Chandler>Ricky Stanzi...when did Jon say this?
True or False?
I said I think Stanzi has had a better career than Banks. You are cutting up the discussion to fit your emotions.
Of my best Iowa QB list:
1. Long
2. Stanzi
3. Hartlieb
4/5 Tate/Rogers
Banks had a great season...and if we are going to talk about the greatest seasons by an Iowa QB, Banks' 2002 is in the Top Three for sure.
I see how this works now, anything hawkeye gets bashed after an Iowa loss, including radio people.
Not true...you said specifically Stanzi was a better QB and cited Banks benefitting from a better O-line. You are editing history.
Stanzi will play in the NFL and even if he never starts he will collect a check for several years. He even after losing 5 games this season he is still among the career leader for wins for an Iowa QB. Arm strength isn't the only thing that defines a QB. His best football is in front of him. He is better than banks. One thing he has in common with Banks is that he received inferior QB coaching.
I think he's a big boy. It's his job to have opinions on Iowa football, surely he can take some criticism WHEN HIS OPINION IS DIFFERENT FROM MINE.
His best football is in front of him? Are you out of your mind? Stanzi will never play at the next level.
Iowa needs another Brad Banks. A running QB adds another dimension to the offense. Look at how many teams in the Big Ten are going this way. I know Iowa will never change, but when you have to watch out for a great RB, WR, or QB that scrambles......just another thing the defense has to key on.
