Sams should be our Boynkin next year.

One game could mean everything next year. If waters is having an off day Sam's might have to come in and save us. So how many games will we need Sams at WR for? Maybe that one game he plays QB is more important. Also think 2015 should be Sam's year.
Let's go nuts and just make Sams the full time starting QB.

I'd prefer the full-time WR to part-time WR and part-time QB.
Sams has had two full seasons of coaching, practices, film sessions and opportunities to show leadership. TWO FULL SEASONS! He had distinct and measurable advantages over Waters at the beginning of this season, having already been immersed in the K-State football culture. He had the chance to step up and seize this position because of those advantages. He didn't. Snyder doesn't trust him as a starter, and my guess is he has miles of ground to make up next season to even challenge Waters for the job. I keep hearing about Sams "upside and potential" being greater than Waters. Should I assume then that the "upside" of quarterbacks like Michael Vick and RG3 are greater than players like Peyton Manning and Drew Brees who can't run a lick and aren't as athletic as these two. And don't give me this business about the pro game being different than the college game. Look what Manning and Brees accomplished at both levels. And don't make this into a racial thing either, because I believe Jameis Winston and possibly Teddy Bridgewater have the potential to be elite quarterbacks someday. When you're talking about "potential", don't discount the mental side of the equation, the leadership side of the equation, the vision necessary to play the quarterback position, and as Gor pointed out "having a feel" for the position … possessing the right instincts to feel a pocket breaking down, reading defenses, or knowing when to throw the ball away. Those things, to me, are far more important than how quickly one can change directions while carrying the football, or how "athletic" you happen to be. Quarterbacks are the guys with a steady hand on the wheel of a boat that is trying to survive rough waters. No pun intended. This will be Jake's team next year. Get used to it.
Drew Brees didn't accomplish crap in college. If he's saying that we should go get guys like Peyton Manning to play QB for us, then I would agree with him.

CHECK.
That Rose Bowl team finished 8-4. GMAFB. Individual awards and stats are meaningless if you don't get the wins to back them up.
