He showed up to a regional softball game between two small schools (one of which the radio station he works for covers) while wearing his Madrid gear... I haven't worn any gear from my high school since I was in high school and I definitely wouldn't wear it to a game between two schools that aren't my high school.

Sounds like the town I live in, they all think their glory days truly were in HS and do nothing but talk about their HS days.
 
Chad just said on the radio Petras is the third best QB in the B1G West and he would take him over Tanner Morgan.

"Iowa's quarterback situation isn't as bad as some people think."
 
Chad and Kennington are going thru their top 3 Iowa stories and Chad picked "passing game" as the most important.

LOL

How bad are the QBs in the West if the debate for 3rd best is between those 2?
 
I ran the numbers of the starters and some backups for B1G West schools..

Illinois
Brandon Peters:
53.8%, 1170 yds, 7TD, 3INT, 120.9
Artur Sitkowski:
50%, 704, 6TD, 2INT, 100.6

Northwestern
Ryan Hilinski:
54%, 978, 3TD, 4INT, 101.7
Andrew Marty:
60%, 707, 6TD, 6INT, 121.1
Hunter Johnson:
60%, 424, 4TD, 4INT, 114.4

Nebraska
Adrian Martinez:
61.8%, 2863, 14TD, 10INT, 148.9

Purdue
Aiden OConnell:
71.6%, 3712, 28TD, 11INT, 158.5
Jack Plummer:
68.5%, 864, 7TD, 0INT, 143.5

Wisconsin
Graham Mertz:
59.5%, 1958, 10TD, 11INT, 121.3

Minnesota
Tanner Morgan:
59.6%, 2044, 10TD, 9INT, 134.3

Iowa
Spencer Petras:
57.3%, 1880, 10TD, 9INT, 117.3
Alex Padilla:
49.1%, 636, 2TD, 2INT, 99.1


Take those numbers how you will, but good gravy those are some really really poor QB stats. Purdue was no doubt the best with Nebraska coming in second with Martinez at the helm.

For reference only one school in the Big 12 had numbers like this and it was KU. Also, Casey Thompson threw for 2113 yards at a 63.2% clip, 24 TD and 9 interceptions with a 154.7 rating.

As far as whether Petras is third best.. I honestly don’t know. Looking at those numbers, maybe? Lol but that’s really not saying much at all.
