My God. Against Wake TL played one of the best games an App State QB has ever played and you want to put in a replacement. Jesus.ashugh wrote: ↑Fri Sep 29, 2017 7:35 pmI’m just going to throw something out that is going to cause some people’s hair to catch fire. But, so be it.
I think it’s time, much like Satt did when we transitioned by sacrificing with redshirting guys that could have made us win more games immediately for the long term gain, to look to the future. I think it would be prudent to start Zac Thomas from this point forward.
I know. I’ve said before Taylor is the second best QB to ever wear the black and gold. But, none of that matters for this program moving forward. Taylor, for all the great accomplishments he has achieved, has had his opportunities to win the biggest of the big games. They now are all in his rear view. The schedule we have left is the weakest in FBS. These are the games Taylor will win. Can come in and win. But, the monumental wins are in his past and they passed without a W.
It is, without question IMO, in App’s best interest to start Zac the rest of the year. We would not have to worry about a green QB with a weak O line. And boys and girls a weak O line is coming. Heck, it’s half way here.
They say great teams, great QB’s and great coaches find a way to win close games. We have found a way to lose at UT and at home against Weak. Not all of that is on Taylor, especially the Weak game. But, it’s over and it just never happened. Let’s find out what we have with the guys we have while Colby and Nunn are here. If we don’t do this, next year has the potential to be ugly early and often.
"The most popular player on a football team is the backup quarterback." That's so true in regards to this fanbase. I promise you if Thomas was better than Lamb he'd be starting.
