LOL, Howard chose KSU over Harvard and Yale! That fool could have had an Ivy League degree and instead he'll be a commercial insurance salesman with a K-State degree.

V weird takes from you today, he is studying mechanical engineering

1. I bet you he won't make it past differential equations, and will end up with a construction science degree, if he's lucky. LOTS of freshman have started out studying Engineering. LOL.

2. You think he has a shot at playing football on the next level?!?! He could have had a top Ivy degree, and passed on it.

At that height with those good looks, he would make a hell of a commercial construction bonds salesman.

I'm gonna come out and say it: I don't think Will Howard finishes the season with a 3:1 TD:Int ratio

Does the pick 6 count as both?

Is it possible that he is actually the worst scholarship QB on our roster? Mind you, I judge QB's by how they play in games, and not by how tall they are or how their throwing motion looks in practice.

I honestly think he’ll be a decent backup for ~~rubley~~ Thompson next year

You know how people always say the most popular player is the backup QB? Well, we will luckily not have to deal with that!

howard looks like a decent backup option to me. they say is a dual threat QB but if I rank all the QBs in the B12 by their running ability I would say Howard is the worst runner in the league. the KU freshman could be a star in the old snyder system

The receivers somehow had their worst game of the year, by far. I'd say the fact that they haven't found a single receiver who can't even play is astounding. The only receiver in the '19 and '20 classes with a catch is Keenan Garber, a Snyder recruit with 1 catch for 9 yards.

Howard may still be good! He was thrust into a really crummy situation - by that I mean he’s a true freshman playing in an offense with a below average OL and a WR Corp that sucks complete crap.

He was really bad today though.

I agree with this stance.

He won a road game and has now lost one.

He has a chance to improve still, especially if he can get more decisive.

The early pick spooked (pumpkin emoji) him and he never got it back.

Think how much worse the score would have been if it was freemaw tossing the rock all over the yard

This. I’m down to go Sklar 3:16 another year. Howard as backup, redshirt Rubley.

He’s far too slight and would be broken in half.

michigancat · « **Reply #368 on:** October 31, 2020, 10:57:02 PM »

I think it's worth considering that ksu hasn't had a true freshman qb other than freemaw in the modern era. We don't know what they're normally like!

wetwillie · « **Reply #369 on:** October 31, 2020, 10:58:46 PM »

Snyder would have played DJamer Render in the wildcat before letting Will play.

steve dave · « **Reply #370 on:** October 31, 2020, 11:02:39 PM »

I personally hate that we don’t have a fast/athletic backup QB. Feels yucky.

as a true freshman you make a good point. But give him a couple years to add 20-25 pounds and I like him. He's an outstanding runner and his arm looks as good any anyone in the league right now outside of Rattler. Now i'm not sure if he has any of the other capabilities like reading defenses but he looks to have the physical talent. not sure about the mental talent yet. Snyder seemed to like the guys like this. Make sure they have the physical ability then teach them the rest. I dont see the basic physical ability with Howard. he may be great in the brain i hope thats enough

Kashi, shut up, Jesus Christ.

do u disagree? if u do, please name the B12 QB who is not a better runner than Howard. because i went through all of them in my head and its not even particular close.
The B12 has a lot of great running QBs.

Except that we see other teams do it all the rough ridin' time.

do you see many that are like, good, and not a five star at Bama or Clemson? Other than KU's QB that you and kashi are in love with.
