In contrast, BYU has 3 players who had significant reps in spring ball and with FBS experience. They then added a 4th after spring ball.

I just never thought I'd see PK like this

Eh. No thanks.

I agree..we should start treating KSL the way we treat the sltrib.

Did you base this opinion on watching 10 mins of KSL in the past 10 yrs?

Absolutely

You must be some kind of sports news savant. You are averaging only

Hahaha. The more you defend KSL, the stronger my conviction to spread the truth:

you're missing the much larger point here.

I've become more and more disenchanted with KSL over the past few years.

I used to listen to a lot of PK way back. He’s not pro or anti anything. He

PK is pro-whatever gets him listeners and clicks.

Yeah that’s the industry he’s in. though I think he’s pretty tame as far as

He's unashamedly Pro-ASU. Otherwise. I've always thought he's been fair to BYU.

Yeah but even his ASU fanhood is often a joke. Back when I listened I thought

The headline is wrong. It wasn’t Cam’s injuries that cost Ludwig his job, it was his lack of contingency planning. If

But K-tWhitt himself said it was the deepest team ever.

I think there’s enough blame to pass around to both the OC and the HC.

Wait, but I thought their third string quarterback would start on any team in the big 12

Ludwig had a QB who "should" have been ready at some point last season

I actually agree with you that it was probably not worthy of a “firing”, but given the hype this year, there had to be a

QB is not really a "next man up" position, especially in the transfer portal era

It wasn’t the injury to Rising that cost him the job

I'm sure there is a political component. The Wilson family was really pushing for Zach to start at BYU as a FR, IIRC,

Bob Vance

If he’s not as good as others on the bench, Ludwig deserves to be fired then too

Could also have been out of his hands (i.e., a Whitt decision). Too little info

Yet, I saw tOSU bring on a true freshman QB and he led them to a natty. This

It’s certainly possible to be great as a true freshman

I'm sure there's more to it than that

Huard is a junior and came after spring ball

It was a pretty big gamble to bank on a true freshman as the backup

What would you have done instead? Are other programs able to do better?

reddead

Easy. Bring a veteran transfer to compete with Rising in spring ball

It's a cardinal sin to put all of your eggs in the QB basket.

Not a bad article, but his premise is completely wrong...

QBs really are that important. It's why NFL teams pay through the nose for them
