The first time sams caught a ball from Jake, it would rip a hole in my heart.

It will rip my heart out more when Jake overthrows him by 8 feet

This could quite possibly be worse than moving Ell to WR and letting Schwinn take the reigns...

Move him to RB.

At a minimum, I don't think bill is stupid enough to take his only viable backup option at QB and move him.

It will actually work out perfect for Bill (even though it's rough ridin' stupid) because he'll start Jake all next year (Sams as backup, Sharp RS's, then give Daniel the reigns his Sr year, Ertz and Sharp as backups) then probably recruit a juco QB to give Sharp competition as a RS SO. This is of course, unless Sams transfers. Which I think he will if Bill tells him he's not going to move him to WR (which he shouldn't, he should be the starting QB).

I mean it would make sense to move him, since he's a terrible QB and all.

Move jake waters to runningback.

All I want in this world is for Sams to be THE guy for the cats.

Same here.

I have day dreams about SAMs tearing up Norman next fall.

Another one is him accepting the B12 trophy and an invite for a future BCS seed with that adorable smile of his.

It worked for Michael Robinson.

If Sams isn't going to start, he should see the field in some way.

I can't even begin to describe how angry moving sams to WR would make me. It would make more sense to move jake to wr.

In most of our fans minds, it wouldn't, simply because we all know Sams would be amazing as a receiver and because GPC nation thinks Jake is fantastic and better than Sams at QB now.

Note: I think a guy that barely sees the field yet gets as much respect and attention as Sams does should play the position. Do we have any other example in Bill's tenure where the known better guy doesn't play? Bill has always been on #TeamDontCareJustWin. I just can't wrap my head around the QB play issues, which I would need to be able to do before being ok with him moving Sams anywhere.

Um, how about Carson Coffman starting ahead of the Heisman runner-up? Or playing Marc Dunn for much of the 2001 season?

Everyone realizes that this is more of a Michael Robinson/Travoyne Boykin move and not a Chris Harper move, right? He'll still most likely get a few series a game at QB?

kim carnes · « **Reply #239 on:** December 27, 2013, 11:40:00 AM »

no, I don't realize that. I mean, it's all rough ridin' stupid, so giving him a "few series" at QB is still rough ridin' stupid.

While I don't disagree, I just want him to be on the field. I've made my peace with it.

No one here knew what Colin was when he was backing up Carson and wasn't Dunn done after like game 4?

Colin shredded Texas with his legs and went right back to the bench when Carson got healthy. Other than easily moving the ball against MU before Carson getting most of the snaps. Dunn threw 25 passes in the Bowl game in 2001.

Do people think Sams is going to be the next Randy Moss or something?

CNS · « **Reply #246 on:** December 27, 2013, 12:15:31 PM »

Without looking, I am assuming we didn't play tx until already a third of the season was over and even then he wasn't rated higher than Carson, wasn't discussed as someone to partially game plan against by other teams, and certainly wasn't thought to be the next great QB at KSU. He was mostly an unknown quantity at that point.

And in both situations (moreso in the MR situation), you could argue that each respective coach was rough ridin' stupid for not just going with MR/TB. MR was shuffled around for 3 years (RB/QB/WR)....then finally when that pedophile enabler with tinted glasses pulled his rough ridin' head out of his ass and let MR play QB (almost entirely) his Sr year he led his team to an 11-1 record, a conf championship, and an Orange Bowl victory and set records (or near records) in the process (the preceding two years Penn State went 4-7, 3-9).

so yeah, it's a lot like MR.

kostakio · « **Reply #248 on:** December 27, 2013, 12:23:02 PM »

I'd prefer Sams to be the starting QB but if that isn't going to happen I at least want him on the field. He's one of the top few athletes on a team that can always use more athletes. The only thing worse than moving him to WR would be to let him stand there with a clipboard all season.

At this point he knows the QB position well enough that he could handle extra responsiblities. If Waters goes down you obviously move him back to QB full time.
