The other site reported it this morning and all the reports are he's outplayed Delton the last month in scrimmages.

On the one hand, it's better if the best QB we have is also young. OTOH, I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for Delton and hope he gets some moments to help the team this year.

i had warmed up to the idea of delton starting (he's fast!) but the upside of a stud armed sophomore starting is exciting too. i just hope we run an offense that suits him.

i still think Delton will start the majority of our games.

Skyler has seemed to be the better game-time QB if you ask me.  Source: http://goEMAW.com/forum/index.php?topic=39723.msg1765266#msg1765266

The bowl game was a bit of a downer, but still nice to know Delton is available to bail us out if we can't get the passing game going.

And I simply don't see Delton starting the majority of our games even if he is the better QB.  He's nowhere near Klein levels of durability even though that's exactly how our coaching staff has been using him.

From just a brain damage perspective, I imagine it'll be Skylar starting the first 2, Delton the next 2, whoever the 3rd string is the next 2, a white WR starting the next 2 or 3, back to Skylar for the next 1 or 2, and back to white WR for whatever's left.

I think starting our next NFL Qb is a genius idea by 'ole snyds. I can't remember the last time we went with the younger QB.

Post by: cfbandyman on August 28, 2018, 01:33:07 PM
I always thought Skylar had more upside, but games like the bowl game are probably going to happen, and a guy like Delton will be needed. He did afterall pretty well vs OU, TT until he got hurt, and of course the bowl game. I bet Delton will play in every game regardless if Skylar starts them all.
Title: Re: It's Skylar!
Post by: meow meow on August 28, 2018, 01:36:20 PM
the depth chart has Sky or Delt.  joint checking account nickname for both is fine as long as we call Sky "mrs wacky's account" and Delton is "fun money"

For once I'd like to see a KSU game where it's 60/40 passing/running and not running our healthy quarterback until his brains leak out of his ears.  Also, how about at least 35 passes a game?  Gotta use that arm up!

Looks like we saved Alex 4 games worth of shoulder damage.  Brilliant move by coaching staff when you think about it.  We weren’t going to win the MSU or WVU game anyway.

Post by: Steffy08 on September 25, 2018, 10:17:36 AM
Our line is so soft that we can't run the ball unless it is with the QB.
I'm ready to see Delton run it 30 times.  Gives us a chance to win these next three games.  Maybe he gives us a spark.
Thompson has had a third of the season, and our offense has been dogcrap.

Who cares?  They should think about that when they drop touchdown passes on consecutive plays.

And in any event, most players prefer winning rather than getting their butt whipped.

Skyler isn't that good. NFL hype was blown way out of proportion. Every game he starts,even last year, the offense seems like it has no rythym. When our receivers happen to get open, he doesn't see them. Delton is probably worse at seeing the field, but at least he can run and give the dual threat option.
