James got home late Tuesday night after driving 16 hours and he and i had a good conversation about all this Q/B controversy,he was to wired to go to sleep. Anyway he said no one is taking his spot at starting Q/B. He said he knows he has to earn it and that is what he intends to do!!.I was a little shocked is this being cocky or confident?? But he insists they will ot be able to keep him off the field he says he knows all the defenses and the plays and wishes he would have got a shot in a couple games(He brags he would not be home, but preparing for a bowl game. Oh well just wanted to share with you his thinking,I guess time will tell. Anyway our family wishes all of you a safe and merry christmas and happy new year!!
James said bring them on
- Thread starter Capello
- Start date
QB's need to have that "give me the ball" attitude that all great starting pitchers have in baseball. Attitude and confidence is HUGE in athletes and is one of the "intangibles" people talk about. If you get good, they call it moxy.
Love it. Go get em James. We need that attitude at every position and I think that is becoming more of a reality.
Make good use of your time between now and Spring Ball so however the competition turns out you have no regrets. Proud to have you as a Cyclone.

We may have the most highly contested QB competition in the country. 5 guys and I am not ready to count any of them out.
Whoops, forgot Daniels but in that case, next year, I am ready to count him out. I just don't think he has it yet. That's not to say he won't someday.
Sounds like someone isn't happy with the coaching staff over the fact that they didn't get a better shot than garbage time in the UNI game.
yaaaa not so much. sounds like a kid that wanted to play (all the good ones do) and will not be told NO next year.
The best players also think they are the best. I think this is a great attitude to have. If you are a QB looking at the other QBs and your thoughts are "I don't have a chance", then there is a problem.
With that said, I would expect all of the other QBs on the team are probably thinking the same thing --- that it is their job to lose.
I can't wait to see how this shakes out.
Love it. I hope James takes the team by force, makes them follow him and wins games.
