Anyone know the full story?
Yes, I know he wasn’t good in the UNH game, or Colorado, or UF games. But he was pretty good against SHSU and TCU. Heck I don’t think we would have won the TCU game with any other QB.
But how does someone go from QB1 with wins including leading a big comeback, to being a healthy scratch and never seeing the field again? Like he wasn’t even warming up with the QBs. I get he wasn’t good, but he had good moments. I know his career is over and all, but it’s just rather unprecedented to go from starter to never playing again with a carousel of backups taking that spot without injury? I mean they literally trotted him out to be a captain at the coin toss of every game, but what captain has ever not played, even a little, if not injured?
What really happened? And did this series of events cause other players to reevaluate their future here? How do you go from starter and leading a big comeback to never seeing the field again?
