weagl1 1,784 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Might as well get him ready to go now that Sean is history. From what I saw in the spring game the kid has all sorts of potential. I hate to see him out there with our OL problems but it is what it is. We need him now!

AU64 10,122 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Can't see any reason to red shirt him any longer....might as well get him ready in case he is needed. Could be that a more mobile guy at QB could make the OL issue less obvious....plus I'm still looking to see the OL get better as they develop more cohesion as a unit.

First its Seans public intox and other issues. Now Stidham has a sex tape out? Malzahn needs to get this teams priorities straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike4AU 1,739 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I remember an unnamed QB who should have gotten a lot more playing time as the backup. It is possible that he would have improved greatly or coaches could have seen that he was not nearly as good as they and fans thought he was. And coaches could have realized they needed to recruit more QBs and not hitch their wagon to him. There are major advantages to giving Willis plenty of playing time. To not do so is extremely short sighted...but not surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm having a hard time coming to a decision on this issue. We played Adams against Ga Southern, keeping the RS intact for Willis. I feel confident we'll handle Missouri and Stidham will run a smooth offense; Willis won't be needed. I'm more concerned about hitting an offensive wall against MSU, similar to how we did against Clemson. I think if that happens, then Gus burns the redshirt to try and switch something up offensively. I'm interested to hear what others think. Its a very interesting situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing against Adams and being a walk on, but we all know if he had to go in a real game situation hes just going to be handing it off 100 times. Let MW get some real reps now. What if Stidham gets hurt during Georgia game or down in Baton Rouge? You throwing Adams out there? Burning MW's redshirt half way through season and his first snap is against an SEC team? Let him play this week.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not mop up duty but run the offense. Urban Meyer did this with Tebow when he was a freshman. Seems like he always got him into the game no matter the situation. Willis needs game speed experience.

If Stidham get hurt in the middle of a game that is not decided, then he needs to be ready. Therefore, he needs as much playing time as possible. wde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weagl1 1,784 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I hope it is a blowout this weekend and the coaches can get him some reps. The Missouri defense has been a train wreck. Of course everyone's D seems to get well against our O line so you never know it might be a close game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want it to be a blowout but something is telling me, based on our coaches, this game will be too close for comfort and M. Willis gets no playing time. GOD I hope i am wrong!

gr82be 14,425 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Hypothetically let's say that Stidham gets an unsportsmanlike penalty called for losing his cool after a late hit and then a little later he gets a second unsportsmanlike penalty for taunting the defense after a score. He gets ejected and then Malzahn has to play Willis. That's about as likely as the Missouri game being a blowout. I have a sinking feeling and I hope I'm wrong that Malzahn won't lift the redshirt until he is forced to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
