(Cole Bair) Mark Farley quote

- Start date
Hunter is no slouch. Ask the IA record books. Clean up the Oline and start stretching the field...guy has a cannon, we just need the deep threat.
Two years ago, I absolutely agree.
Last year, after he and the new coordinator clicked, that offense was vertical and explosive. Mark has finally separated himself from the offense and given up control and it's night and day different.
Hopefully Gaines, Essex, and Black are ready to fly.
It's slowly changing, but the draft has always been about measurables. At QB, that's arm strength #1, size #2, mobility #3, accuracy #4, decision making #5. The NFL thinks that they can fix accuracy and decision making. By slowly changing, I mean 20 years ago, Kyler Murray would have went undrafted or drafted late as a WR. He went first overall.
Stanley was better at Purdy in arm strength and size. He was the more prototypical NFL QB. That's why he got drafted higher. But Purdy was way better at the other 3.
He got 3 pass attempts in 3 years at MSU behind Lewerke, Lombardi and Thorne, which were at best slightly above average B10 qb’s.
Hunter could be Joe Montana reincarnated but if the O-line doesn't drastically improve it isn't going to matter.
Or if Hunter isn’t allowed to play.
Btw…. Theo would have been the starter at Iowa last year for sure…. that is…. if father and son would have benched the lousy Petras…. which maybe they wouldn’t have?
The Cole Bair radio show on KCNZ sounds like it is titled Colon Company. I have nothing else to add.
Yep before that being behind a guy at MSU was a little more ok because we had a shocking amount of QB’s get drafted. Lewerke was really the first truly average QB sparty had start for multiple seasons and then COVID plus a coaching change messed a lot up.

this feels like when that Jay hawk doofus used to argue with surly on here
Damn I hope I just didn’t get compared to surly
He looked pretty pedestrian today. Maybe he meant best QB in the state that plays against mainly FCS competition.
He looked good when he had plenty of time and could sit in the pocket. When he was pressured or had to move in the pocket, he struggled. He is probably good at the FCS level but I was expecting more
