Again it helps if you grasp the point. The point was not about the particular bowl game or even which QB should start, but whether practicing for and starting in a bowl gives a QB that was the backup this year and potentially the starter next any meaningful benefit. It does not. Just like young QBs getting some “mop up” snaps in blowouts doesn’t have any meaningful benefit or impact on whether he succeeds.

Then why bother playing backup QBs at all? Apparently in game reps mean nothing. Playing week 0 means nothing. Playing in bowls means nothing. Playtime in general means nothing. Hell why even practice.

I really feel sorry for people like you, that think everything is a fight or driven by some kind of agenda. Is it because you perhaps spent so much bandwidth attacking Daniels/screaming for Nussmirer that you think everyone thinks the same. It’s really a shame.

Seems more like that's your MO and I do feel sorry for you. I wasn't active during that fight so that's your thing not mine. Stop assuming things about others or rather implying malicious intent in substitute of discourse.

if he’s named the starter next year he’ll have all off season and summer to practice, he’d be fine even if Daniels plays this bowl

If he's named the starter "next year" no he wouldn't. Also weird commentary considering you're probably one of the ones praying we bring in "competition" and push him to transfer.

Didn't miss anything. You saying it provides no benefit is dumb. The coaches would disagree with you.

You miss every thing since you live in zero sum world. We are still talking about next year. The difference between a QB being successful or not is not based on a few extra practices 9-10 months before next season. If the coaches disagreed then they would give the back ups and underclass men all the reps in bowl practice.

Here again you completely miss the point. First of all the back ups do practice they do get reps. It is not necessary for them to play in games at the end of blow outs to get “experience” it doesn’t matter. Like a lot of fans you seem to assume if we don’t see it it doesn’t happen. All the players practice they all go to film study and work outs. They coaches know what they are capable of.

Are you serious with this

All I said originally was a backup/ probable starter for next year playing in the bowl doesn’t matter and you said
“Just be honest you don't want him to play” and when I said especially if he’s the start next year “Get over it”

You are the one assuming things about others and accusing me of malicious intent.

After seeing a couple of your post it wouldn’t surprise me if you are an alter of Tiger Ree
