Unfortunately we don't have any better option at the moment, so we're all stuck hoping he makes a dramatic improvement going into next season

Face it...our QB play

ZubbyCoug

Jan 10, 12:07pm

So is the answer to chuck him, or develop him some more?

Indy Coug

Was the answer to fire Tuiaki, or develop him some more?

BYU shouldn’t be developing coordinators. BYU should be developing players

Stop. byubyu thinks he's being clever.

Indy Coug

Jan 10, 12:13pm

We'd still have Tuiaki if it was up to you. Every year a new reason why we had

Develop him

This is the right answer

I agree, but how to you develop good decision making? I'm sure the coaches

As long as “develop” doesn’t = Heaps “development”

And don’t be in a position in the future where someone of Jake’s caliber

Develop him as best you can while bringing in the best possible QBs to compete with him via recruiting or transfers.

Not sure about the CO game, but he wasn’t healthy for the ASU or Kansas games.

We did not need a better QB to make the playoffs.

QB play (Fade throw pick in the endzone) was as much to blame as anything else

While I like Jake, he needs to take the next step. We need him better.

The solution is to go get the best QB recruit you can and let them compete. If

Absolutely. May the best man win!

honestly i'd take retzlaff over a lot of qbs I saw in the playoff. We need to be

Meh….Any team that loses a game can make that statement

Chicago Cougar

Not at all true. There's plenty of teams that have deficiencies in areas other

Most disturbing to me isn't JR's play, but the lack of a backup with any

Same thing happened with Jaren Hall. The ND game was completely winnable with a

GB should have been getting snaps during the season.

What drives me crazy is hearing after a loss that the QB was hurt. Riley Nelson

Whoa, now that's a tough position to defend, but you have the fallback that

If he can get the picks under control he is more than serviceable. Let's see.

Didn’t we go tru this last offseason?

A healthy qb1 would have done it, too. It's hard to stay healthy through 13 games

QB isn’t the problem. Its the O-Co

I have to admit, I'd prefer Sam Leavitt. Sorry, feel free to thumb me down.

Jake Retzlaff has a great work ethic & ambitious drive.

gopman

Jan 10, 9:42pm

I love Jake, always proving the doubters wrong. He will do the same next year.

ethanator

Jan 10, 9:45pm

I like enthusiasm and hope you're right. I'm certainly not rooting against him.

Jan 10, 9:59pm

I want Kalani, ARod, Retzlaff & the entire offense going into spring

gopman

Jan 10, 10:07pm

The INTs worry me. If he fixes that, we're already much improved. I'm not sure

With Jaxon Dart we win Big12 and make playoff. But a number of teams could say that. there are only so many Jaxon darts.
