    And we all know if there was an open QB competition he'd be our starter going into next year, but Bronco wasn't going to let that happen.
    Oh boy.

      Of course he wasn't going to let it happen. I'm operating under the presumption that Bronco wants to win games.

        Not this again. I'm not a Riley guy. He's a High School QB with with a bad arm and good hair. But the fact that Riley Nelson sucks doesn't mean that Jake Heaps doesn't. How come they can't both suck?

          But Heaps was a 5 star recruit. He has to be better. He just has to be.

            I think it will be a sad, sad day for Jake Heaps and his family when this reality sinks in. Who knows, it might be that he turns a corner and tears it up, but if not then I think they will all be so very disappointed.

              I'm not ready to make that judgment based on a bad string of games in a brand new O with a brand new OC after a strong end to his true freshman season.

                Unfortunately for Heaps that judgment had to be made by someone.

                  Looks like a pretty decent outing. I'm guessing it was because he wasn't dealing with a clueless coordinator putting him in bad situations.
                  So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.

                    Except one fact everyone wants to forget. Riley outperformed Jake in last year's spring game.

                      It seemed like it.

                      Lumping Jake's problems all on Doman is really a stretch. Doman had his struggles but Jake, at least to a degree, self destructed.

                        Fortunately I'm not doing that.

                        But if Doman can blame himself for Jake's failings, I can, too.

                          Doman was falling on his sword in an attempt to keep Jake around when he said that. Personally I'm blaming sabotaged game balls for Jake's problems.

                            No, Jake was Rock Chalk Jayhawking and teaching primary lessons in Lawrence when Doman said this. He had no reason to do so, other than the fact that he was right and was being candid.

                              He also said it before. I'm sure he was just trying to be consistent and humble!:box:

                                Well he was right both times, so yeah, the consistency was warranted.
