You're dreaming if you think some spring numbers against air mean anythign. I've watched this program since the Toth Field days, back when a quarterback had to earn his stripes over years, not just show up with a fancy transfer label. We had guys who bled blue and gold, not mercenaries chasing the highest NIL bid. This new era where you just plug a guy in from the portal and expect greatness is a farce. It reminds me of the 2002 team, where leadership was built in the weight room over summers, not bought in some bidding war. Decision-making in spring scrimmages is a world away from a third and long in the fourth quarter against a real defense. The Big 12 might have changed, but pressure is pressure, and I haven't seen this kid take a real hit yet. These kids today have no patience, no loyalty. The game has lost its soul to this portal madness, and no amount of on3.com hype is going to change that. Real quarterback play is about consistency over a career, not a flashy spring headline. I'll believe it when I see it in a real game, when the lights are on and the pocket is collapsing. Until then, save the hype for someone who buys into this new, broken system.
