He should be Will McHoward because he's basically Guinness Extra Stout level.

There was a comparison on Twitter of Skylar and Will which I can no longer find.  Suffice to say, Will's numbers were quite comparable to Thompson's and even better in some cases.  The biggest problem for Will was on 2nd down he only had a completion rate of 45% or so.

I think if he can fight off Rubley, he'll be a uber (not the David Beaty kind) as an upper classman.

Rubley only ever starts a game here if Will gets hurt. He'll be gone by next December.

Isn’t Rubley our highest rated HS recruit since Freeman or something?

a much ballyhoo'd quarterback recruit transferring after his true freshman season because he can't get playing time behind our other true freshman quarterback isn't the worst thing in the world if it happens

WTF? I don't hate Jake Rubley at all. I don't think a true freshman, who wouldn't have played competitive football in two years, will be able to beat out a player who has started for nearly an entire season. That's not even accounting for if Skylar comes back. Y'all are out of your goddamned minds if you think Rubley is staying here if he doesn't start next year.

I don't think ANY of those things are givens...(other than he wouldn't have played competitive football for a while)

2021: Redshirt
2022: get reps as First Team All Big 12 Jr. Will Howard's backup
2023: starts as a sophomore!

Of course they aren't givens rusty, what do you think the best case scenario is? If this team finishes, let's say even 7-4, do you really think it's likely that Howard would lose his starting job after going 6-3 as a true freshman who didn't have the benefit of spring football or a full August training camp? I was just as excited as everyone else when Rubley signed, I got a chubby when that one dude said he was the best QB are the elite 11 camp in 2019, but he's got a huge hill to climb to win that spot. If he doesn't win it he isn't staying here, that isn't even debatable.

MiR, I'm sorry Jake didn't look great that one game with those Des Moines duds.  But get off his back already sheesh.

I outlined my best case scenario!

I have no idea how good Rubley really is but I haven't seen enough from Howard to think that he can't be pushed for a starting job even if the team finishes 6-4 or 7-3. He has been fantast

There's also the interesting idea that he's gone if he isn't good enough to start from day 1, but will have better immediate playing time options available if he transfers. He might! but not many and he'll have to take a redshirt, which diminishes the point of leaving
