the same abandon he did before he had his knee completely rebuilt? It's got to be really tough not only physically but mentally too.

Why is everyone so positive Cam Raising will return after missing a whole season

Most people on here are pretty dubious Cam will be 100% back

Gerry never won a Rose Bowl. uu fans tell me that Rising won two.

Well, he did win 2nd place twice.

They claim Rising "would have" won 2 Rose Bowls IF he could have finished either one. He'd have also beaten BYU in 2021

Gerry won a Sugar Bowl. Last time I checked, Sugar Bowl > Rose Bowl given SEC

No, I got the Ute delusion joke, but still just pointing out that he is more

I don't think either one of them should inspire a ton of confidence.

Neither of them are even the best QBs on their teams

Guessing you are thinking Retzlaff and Wilson?

Wilson and Hillstead

Rising is probably more accomplished, but your point is a good one.

Yep....Rising has not just one....buy two losses in the Rose Bowl

I’ll say this. At least Bohannon looks in shape.

I think there's generally confidence that both will stay healthy...but here's why I think Rising is getting more talk

I think this is pretty good analysis. It also doesn’t help Gerry that he hasn’t

Rising’s injury was much worse than ACL. He tore 3 ligaments iirc

This is true...I'm not saying it's unreasonable to have questions, just explaining why fewer people have them

The reason people think it’s “just an ACL” is because it was originally reported

MUCH bigger. Can't even take into account the mental aspect that has to come into play.

I lose track of Utah coordinators, but wouldn't another advantage for Rising be

Hadn't considered that, but yeah, that gives him a higher likelihood of success in that system. Good call

Idk if the playbook is 100% new. Probably similar to Grimes at Baylor.

Bohanon got benched after his sugar bow winning year.

Yup, Bohanon was inarguably better

Shapen has now transferred from Baylor too right?

Yeah, he left to Miss St. Sawyer Robertson was the Baylor starter last year...and was worse than either Gerry or Shapen
