NY state is so blessed to have both the Bills and the Orange.

Will Shafer have the cajones to do what his buddy down 90 did and bench Hunt?

This weekend might be the earliest that both the Bills and Orange were eliminated from relevancy for the year... usually they make it until at least Columbus Day.

Not the answer.

Hunt still gives us our best chance of winning.
 
He's an impoverished man's EJ Manuel.
Like, maybe the 100s of thousands in the hole on his mortgage, just declared bankruptcy, and can't discharge the 150k he's got in student loans man's EJ Manuel.

If that's the case the season is over and we are not going bowling. I've never seen a qb as bad as Hunt play for the Cuse and I've seen some bad ones.

He's the best we have.

I'm not expecting much from our bench.

So far this staff has done a poor job of recruiting QBs and running backs.

I don't know. They got Kimble and Drew Allen at the 11th hour. Then Long and Edouard. It's not like they weren't trying to upgrade the position.

Umm, not hearing much in the way of anything positive about Wilson, Kimble or Long.

Hopefully Edouard. But he needs to get here first.
 
There were peeps on here that laughed at the though that we'd struggle to win 4 games. We might struggle to win another. This is disgusting. McDonald is a joke Imposter that should give back his salary (and his recruits are not that great either).

These are 1st and 2nd year players, man.
 
Is it just me or do we seem snake bit when it comes to bringing in qbs, especially short term fix qbs... Ala - Drew Allen, Greg Paulus...
Seems like programs all across the country, and especially the ACC, are flourishing with 5th yr grad qbs... Just can't catch a lucky break...

Right, the Ville QB was a true freshman. McNabb shined as redshirt freshman.

They're not the answer.
 
The problem is that we have no one behind Hunt. I realize it was a limited sample size tonight but holy cow, Austin Wilson was comically bad in the few snaps he got. I mean like, backup quarterback in Necessary Roughness, "Blow the whistle, blow the whistle!" bad.

That's my second Necessary Roughness reference tonight. You're welcome, all of you.

It was a long shot, but we really could have used O'Korn.

Anyway, I'm just saying, it's a little too soon to say that one of the guys behind Hunt can't grow in to a good QB.

Not with these coaches... Hunt managed to regress since last year.

Hunt was really bad for a lot of last season. I'm not sure he regressed. He might just have a low ceiling and played a little bit over his head a few times.

Agree with this. People forget he went 6 straight games without throwing a TD, and only topped 200 yards twice all year (and in four of the final final 9 games, he failed to even reach 100 passing yards). Over the final 9 games, his TD/INT ratio was 3 to 8, and that's including his two strong games against BC and Minnesota (zero TDs in that game by the way) to end the year. People should probably start accepting the fact that he's never been very good.

I've come to that conclusion. Hunt is a marginal QB with limited passing skills. Nothing more.

We better hope Edouard finally gets here and is the real deal. Otherwise, we're looking at several years of mediocrity, at best.

Did hunt throw the football for fun or was it just basketball in spare time? The guy just doesn't look like he's thrown the ball enough in his life
