Tired of the Chryst talk

[LibertyVolance]

He slept walked through his QB possessions today. Threw 3 passes; one at someone's feet on a short slant, one batted down at the line, and the other a sideline pass where the receiver was hit as he caught the pass. We haven't scored enough points to have him just milk the clock during his sets. But that's literally all he did.

To me, our skill positions look pretty good, but the big uglies aren't too good. Saw Kongbo move into good position to make a stuff on their RB and then ducked away from the ball carrier coming right at him. Then I saw him chase the QB to a sideline and then he dived at his feet and somebody else had to make the tackle.

Today should be the end if that delusion. Our offensive issues are NOT at the feet of JG. That is for sure.

 

[VOL 4 Life 83]

Guarantano should get all the meaningful snaps. Shrout should be next in line once Chryst is gone

 

[JCHateSteve]

Ther backup QB is always the best player on the team, apparently. There is no valid argument for Chryst at this point. But that won't stop them.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Just wait until FLVol 79 gets in here to tell you how good Chryst is and JG sucks.

We threw away 2 TDs, one on an illegal block on a Chandler run and another where the Cordova back laid the ball on the ground again. As much talent as he has, the guy has to be taught ball security is tantamount to all else especially in games to come.

JG is the better QB, plain & simple.

No disrespect to Chryst but he’s pretty much a back up option if JG gets hurt.

The O-Line is going to HAVE to protect JG when SEC play starts.

He can’t afford to take many more beatings.

 

[Matt2496]

What I couldn't understand is why we're giving reps to a QB that has no eligibility left after this season.

Furthermore, putting Chryst in random intervals is just mind-boggling. The coaches basically destroyed any offensive rhythm we had with JG.

 

[Volfan2012]

I think the coaches just wanted to get him some reps against the last weak opponent. He would be the QB if anything happened to JG and the way he was running today head first gonna take a bad lick. Hopefully the coaches will have him sliding feet first after watching the film today.

 

[TitanicVolz]

Any explanation as to why Chryst was put in right befor halftime?That made zero sense to me or most folks I assume.I get wanting to get Chryst sum playing time,but why not 2nd half?It's not like we were up 59-0,they needed to finish that drive,grab a Td and go into halftime.Just made zero sense to me.

 

[rjmclaff]

The hate for JG is insane to me. Is he a Heisman candidate, no, but he is doing a good job controlling the offense, makes accurate throws, shows leadership on the sidelines, and is tough as hell. And today he showed some ability to make plays with his legs. He has made huge strides in the last year and all the complaints about him are a little absurd

He sat for 2 qtrs because of that

Exactly. For all the yds we amassed on offense, we still haven't gotten in sync scoring points this year. Too many breakdowns at the wrong time. I understand they want to keep changing these OLinemen around to see what they can do at each position, but you would think they just cannot find what they are looking for among the guys available. Will they ever? This is frustrating. They look good at times on run plays and then look sick on other plays. No consistency yet.

If you're tired of....anything then you're in the wrong place

 

[volfaninky]

JG is definitely NOT the problem!

 

[Bauce]

Let's call him @FLVOL_79

 

[SKBubba]

This. He has improved tremendously from last year. Still seemed to miss seeing an open receiver once or twice, but overall pretty good. Lucky to have him plus, bonus, a pretty decent backup.

Correct, Shrout is now the best QB on the team. /s

There are 4 games that JT Shrout could be getting meaningful snaps and this was one, last week was the other. Chryst should not be getting any reps unless JG is on a stretcher and we are not playing 1 of those 4 games JT could be playing in. JT would get game reps and not burn his red shirt and Chryst would realize why he lost his job at Stanford again.

And let the church say AMEN...

Really?

Shout is going to redshirt unless we are forced to use him. Chryst is the backup - getting reps in games like today.

and nobody is saying Gitmo doesn't have things to work out. He needs to recognize defensive alignments and check out of some bad situations, but the coaches need to help him at that too. Helton or QB coach needs to show him on film what he can do when spots a mismatch up front and needs to adjust the blocking or change a call.

 

[Volanta]

On one hand I understand folks frustrations with not scoring enough on UTEP but I ask was there anything that was enough? Because say we scored 70 on them then folks would say “it was a cupcake opponent we should have scored 100. Wait till we get to real SEC competition.” Either way I don’t fear the Florida game. Colorado is being way too competitive in this one.
