Where in my post did I mention Harris? I didn't say he should be benched. I am talking about the facts of his performance thus far. His production has been basically equal to Harris. He has a better "eye test" than BH I agree...
His unforced fumble was absolutely devastating and I hope it isn't a sign of something.

He definitely has more natural "poise" than Harris but is a bit less talented physically.

I hope he turns out to be a stud but there is certainly nothing in the first 2 games to suggest that.

Personally wouldn't know as I too am young. Being 21, earliest QB I remember watching live is Mauck lol. Will actually be going to my first game AT TS for the Ole Miss game.

Etling's lack of arm strength is a rant myth. He can push the rock.

He's also about as good of a runner as Flynn pre-high-ankle sprain.

He has looked better in 2 games than Harris has in 2 years
This is so fricking stupid I want to punch you through the internet

Here are Etlings 3 games



Here is last year from Harris





Out of 12 games, there are 5 he played objectively better than Etling

There are 4 he played the same


And 3 he played worse.



This site has absolutely lost it's mind when it comes to Etling vs Harris

It's not enough for them that Etling is the starter, they've got to go to absurd lengths to disparage Harris too.

Until the offensive line becomes more disciplined, it doesn't matter who is QB, penalties call back TD runs, first downs and game-changing plays. It all starts up front guys and gals..... That's where we are now the weakest.

Etling should be the starter, because our OL is garbage and Harris panics....but comparing him to Coker? Oh my.
