I asked, because when the richardson versus Beathard was discussed, it is similar to the Purdy versus Stanley situation now. Richarson was a returner who had an ok season and Beathard was a hyped guy who had play about a game. That is why people took Richardson, the known, versus beathard, the unknown.
That may be the case for most ISU fans, but we are talking about @CyTwins. I doubt very much that he would ever admit to an Iowa QB > ISU QB (whoever it is) . From what @benjimill said he just switches to Lanning > and says he is > CJ.
