Kid threw two passes and one was a terrible INT. Whitmer actually did okay. We just suck. Hle never should have taken off Boyle's RS off for how he is using him. He certainly isn't "developing".
Whitmer delivered 3 points and no TD drives of any sort. For some fans that passes as okay.
Not for me.
I'll take Boyle going Dave Kingman. Three strike outs and one monster HR a game. Whitmer is four groundouts to the second baseman.
I had to laugh a little on this. Not sure if you were being serious but he did drop back to pass on a third down late in the game when we needed to move the ball and had so much time that he DID drop the ball right put of his hand. Not sure if he was surprised with the pocket holding or what but the ball just slipped straight down to the ground, he picked up, and was sacked.You're not being fair.
For Whitmer (and grade on a curve) ... that was a good performance. He did not let the ball slip out of his hands nor did he throw it to the other team. He had several really nice runs. And despite constant pressure, he actually made quick decisions. And OK ... we had no scores despite being in the opponent's field 8 times.
To beat the drum for Boyle takes a different personality. If the criteria today really is who can lead us best, you really have a tough time picking Tim Boyle.
I don't see Tim as the future at all. That's coach speak about him being the future.I had to laugh a little on this.

I agree that Boyle has shown nothing to make me think he could turn this team around. However, pulling him after he throws an INT and not letting him learn how to bounce back from mistakes is not helping him develop if he truly is our future QB.
If not Boyle, then it's an unknown 5th year transfer, a JC transfer, the NC State transfer, or the current QB verbal commitment or some other currently unknown frosh recruit for next year. Lots of unknowns in that list of alternatives.Bonehead said:I don't see Tim as the future at all. That's coach speak about him being the future.

Those throws 10-15 yards past Davis were just terrible. 14 points left on the field.You're not being fair.

He did let the ball slip out of how hands. Either that or it was Tulane's invisible linebacker.
