It's starting to look like the dark horse who everyone thought would be the odd man out is starting to look like the best we have. Justin McMillan seems to be making the biggest improvements out of all the QB's. The melt would be epic no matter how well McMillan does


Unless you see the reps for yourself, you don't understand. No excuses, DE is having a good spring. According to "FBdad", this was not JM's best day. Early struggles with the snaps and handoffs. And what about LSJ,who is the only QB to have found the endzone each scrimmage. It's hard to develope a reliable opinion on the body of work, if you haven't seen the snaps. This is practice. And at practice, it can be difficult to separate one from the other. Also this stuff is closed so that coaches can control the message. They want you to believe this a close competition. When I'm present, and given the far greater number of reps that DE gets compared to the other guys, the focus is on getting DE ready to play.

The stat stuff is spinned for the media. That's all it is.

Thank you for you updates. Etling did all of those things last year as well. I know the media has a say, but if DE was putting up decent numbers in practice, it would be a lot of people here praising him even more.

The best things being said about him right now are things that have already been said. He's had 4 years already and it's cool he has the "grasp" of the offense. That was never in question, but the fact that he is inaccurate downfield is still very troubling. Same excuses with these issues last year.

And some of the throwaways should not have been. He threw the ball in places where he shouldn't have and didn't throw it in many places he should have. The obsession with him is unreal. I would love to be wrong, but he seems have always been the same guy he was in HS that didn't have great stats.
