    Look in a mirror. Do you expect us to recover from Les Miles overnight?

    Ensminger is better than Cam (1.5 million), but he isn't up to the challenge vs strong D. I'm willing to suspend disbelief for Eaux and Canada. I think we're in for a treat.

    I'm not saying we don't have a shot at having a complementary offense next season with Canada. To the contrary. I am saying, however, it will not be with Etling. Wrong fit for what Canada wants to do at the qb position.

    The alternative is to be a grumpy bitch? I'll choose hope. Did we look amazing vs Louisville? No. I think in part that's due to them having a decent defense. To expect improvement under Canada is also fair at this point.

    I don't think anyone is married to Etling. I think we all look forward to an open competition.

    Watching the Clemson game, Watson is a perfect fit. Do you see Etling doing the things that Watson does? Rhetorical.

    What is anyone fooled about. No one thinks we have deshaun Watson. We just know it's better than Harris or Jennings by tenfold.

    You wanna think otherwise that's on you.

    Ha I replied with Watson before you posted. I knew you're ridiculous enough to think that. Etling doesn't look like Watson? No shit no one does.

    We beat Louisville by 20. Clemson beat them by 6. What's your argument again.
