What’s the point of continuing with CB?

[Yosef84]

I have to admit that I'm having trouble even reading some of this stuff.

Here's a question: If the Coaches give up on this season and pull someone who has worked as hard and contributed as much as CB, how could they expect the players to continue to play hard? The whole "it's time to write-off this season and prepare for next year" mentality is a fan creation and doesn't happen in the real world. It's a quitter mentality and it would develop a quitter team. No way we should do this.

We still have the goal of making a bowl in our reach. If we lose another game and that disappears, we keep playing to win because that's what winners do. We play because we are freaking Appalachian State and we don't quit.

Stroud is big barely runs- has like 80 yards rushing with a 44 yarder. Hooker is big. DJU at Clemson is about the same size as Chase.

If Clemson manages to make the CFP by default, they will get waxed. And for CJ, 217/218 vs 235-240+ is night and day difference. Bottom line, Clemson is overrated and Stroud would walk the dog on CB. It’s time to begin our progression back to relevance, start Burger and Kanye the last two games. If we want to RS Kanye, simply don’t play him the bowl game assuming he and Burger ball out the last two reg season games. It’s not rocket science, unless rules have changed…allowed 4 games and still able to RS. But I digress, I’m just another regular joe blow who doesn’t know anything. 🥴

I totally agree with the last sentence of this post.
Only one that makes any sense.

What happened to our team, program and fans having mental toughness, grit and a thick skin vs being “offended” at the first sign of criticism? Accept the cold hard truth and fight for change or just fade back into Appalayshun state territory. Y’all can call me all the names you want, because I will never back down nor change my opinion til our program makes the necessary changes to be a premier G5 team/program. Premier = top 10 if not top 5.

We ARE a premier G5 PROGRAM. We are NOT have a premier G5 SEASON. There's a difference. For someone who expects others to be thick skinned, and open enough not to "confuse passion.....", you certainly continue to show thin-skinned tendencies to criticism yourself. You also continue to confuse SUPPORT with complacency / acceptance. Step back and get some perspective. If you just want to spew your thoughts unchallenged, you're in the wrong place. Respect is earned, not entitled.

Thanks, Man! I haven't been posting much but I couldn't stay quiet this afternoon.

I just read the entire thread and what a waste of time. Anyone who questions Chase as our best qb and the one that gives us the best chance of winning is an absolute moron who clearly knows nothing about the game. Also, for everyone clamoring to see Burger, when did Clark even say he was second string let alone the guy that would start next year? Let me save you all some time, Clark has never said that. Burger got more time against Robert Morris because McBride (our second string qb with another year of eligibility that most on here don't seem to know) was injured and unavailable. Also, we have a purported good recruit entering in January. In the spring, those 3 and Tabscott will battle it out for the starters roll. So for all those clamoring to get our next qb game action, who should that be because if we go by the depth chart it would not be Burger.

Barring injury or McHugh being better than advertised, Burger will be the starter next year.

Portal or Burger. The days of freshman/RsFr qbs playing are few and far between, unless you're Drake Maye or Bryce Young. Seems like you have an inside scoop that most of us dont....you don't think we will look at the portal? Can't see us trotting a RsFr out there w next years schedule expecting to do much.

I don't expect it. We finally have a balanced class back in the QB room. If McHugh isn't as good as advertised, then we may go to portal next year.

If Tabscott goes to portal, I wouldn't be surprised to dig for depth, but Burger is the plan. He's really good.

Of course, everything is fluid in college football. Injuries, unexpected transfers, etc all play a part. But, barring something changing, I don't expect a get a transfer QB that is brought in to be the starter like Brice was.

I understand that is the thought and current perception, but it is still an unknown. Hell, I thought when Cam came back last year that he would get an opportunity for a huge year and that didn't happen so who really knows anything about what kids will be playing.
