Yea, we gotta have someone who can actually throw the ball to Sumler or whoever else. So far I have not seen anyone who can consistently throw the ball down field. If we are going to live on short passes and screens out of the backfield (we have the guys to do it) then we are set. Our guy has proven to be very accurate in those situations. Forget going down field though unless you want half of them picked. The arm strength is just not there. I hope we have a dog fight for QB this year and one of the young pups win.sixtoes9134 wrote:You could clearly see Sumler's speed during the Spring game. If he's healthy I predict he has an outstanding year.
I will be eagerly watching to see what happens at QB during Fall Camp.

Re: App-Mich II
I'm not understanding why so many on here don't see or want Kam Bryant as our QB - sure, all of us want the best player out there but we have seen Kam is a very good QB who has one season of experience and we have not see any of the other in real game competition - Kam would absolutely be my QB until someone beat him out ---

Re: App-Mich II
First of all, it's Kam, with a K.
He's a great kid, great student and model student athlete and if he had been played earlier last year when it was clearly obvious that JJ was not capable of moving, we might have had another win or two.
That said, I expect there to be a serious competition in Fall camp.

Re: App-Mich II
I think "serious competition" is fine and hopefully there is a lot of it at many positions --- that being said, my point was Kam has done nothing to the best of my knowledge to keep him from clearly being #1 going into fall camp ---

Re: App-Mich II
For me it was Kam's efforts throwing the deep pass, too often it was a floater that allowed the D to recover and break up.WVAPPeer wrote:I think "serious competition" is fine and hopefully there is a lot of it at many positions --- that being said, my point was Kam has done nothing to the best of my knowledge to keep him from clearly being #1 going into fall camp ---

Re: App-Mich II
I was able to speak with Coach Satt at the Wilmington tour stop. He was high on all of the quarterbacks in camp. He didn't come out and say it, but based on our conversation, I inferred that he is excited about the competition.

Re: App-Mich II
I don't care who the QB is for the Michigan as long as he has proven enough to be our best option. I'm not as concerned about the offense for the Michigan game as I am about the defense. If we can hold Michigan under 28 points we have a legitimate shot to upset.

Re: App-Mich II
The offense can be very important. This is not the best Michigan.
What if we play a ball control game? We have many weapons on the ground And in the air. Michigan has new coordinators and we know that can take time to have players adapt.
I see turnovers, defense, and player depth as the keys. I forgot s&c. Bulk them up coach !
I am excited win or lose. Michigan fans were very classy and I will give them all the respect.
