*RUMOR* why is Park taking a leave of absence?

He looked like crap last week. He is pretty good, but needs to continue to get better. A week off is not ideal. Thats not dramatic, that is a fact.
A week off in the film room and working on his mechanics would benefit him just as much as practice snaps right now.

His poor play Thursday was mostly mechanics and a coaching staff putting him in bad positions with piss poor game plan.

Not playing doesn't mean he isn't taking snaps in practice and working on mechanics.

Violation of team rules= smoked happy weed, failed test, sitting out game.

It does NOT= removed from all contact witht he program and sitting at home doing nothing.

3 times. My point has only been that just because we will lose on Saturday doesn't mean that sitting a young player who has started 6 times is a good thing.

How about you explain why it wouldn't be a big deal if the starting QB got himself suspended?
He could spend the week working solely on mechanics and film study. Those were his two biggest weaknesses on Thursday. Most of his throws were to the correct area, he just had poor mechanics.

Unfortunately, he can't work on the pass protection or OL play which is the one thing people are ignoring in last week's piss poor performance. OL play was atrocious.
 
Can someone on the inside just ask MC point blank if Park will be playing on Saturday? This shouldn't be that hard.

Agree. Would think that CW and staff would have enough contact with Campbell that they could text him and ask as much as the Register and Trib do.

Or, maybe fans can wait until Saturday. I mean really...what difference does it make if Cyclone Fanatic gets affirmation that Park is out? It the world going to end if we don't know? Do people really have their day ruined if they don't know?

If true, he certainly won’t be taking practice snaps. Those will go towards getting the other guys ready to play.

He’s not going to magically fix his mechanics mid season during a week he takes off. I think that’s a bit of a misnomer anyway. Quite frankly given his age I think he mostly is what he is at this point.

So maybe the OP started this just so the sooners are going to have to prepare for 2 other QB's plus Lanning just incase. LOL on that.

In the big scheme of war and peace, it does make no difference.
But you, like me, are on a chat board simply reading about Iowa State athletics for fun.

Apparently this needs to be reposted too...

"not suspended" != "not playing"


His wording to the Tribune was Park was not suspended “from the team”. That’s why this is still a talking point.
