do ya think he was ready to do that the day he got there or do ya think they
had to bring him along. Maybe they should have tried him sooner. Maybe not. That is on the coaches - not on Riley Nelson.

One of the worse things to ever happen to BYU football.

A healthy RN would've been just fine with the defense those BYU teams had.

He couldn’t even throw a spiral. Mendenhall just loved him cause he was tough

Clueless. When healthy his arm wasn't bad. He saw the field very well.

Sitting in the end zone at ND, I can still see the awful throw to a wide open Hoffman. So bad. Would have been a score.

I was also in the opposite end zone of the direction he was throwing it...awful

A slip. It happens. Overall, Riley played very well that game.

Riley was decent when healthy, but there were two issues.

Would’ve been cool if he threw a spiral. Or threw to wide open receivers.

He put the ball where receivers could run under it and away from the defender.

Riley threw terrible pass after terrible pass that somehow was completed.

Heaps was the starter. Half the team wanted Riley as their QB...

Yes the team supported Riley but

Riley outperformed Heaps in practice and everyone on the team knew it. There
