Those are some pretty bold statements.85% is just as good if the skill set includes improvisational plays (Broyld, Hunt).
Not saying those last two guys I mentioned are ever going to be the starting QB at Syracuse University, but I think they'd bring a different dimension that Nassib didn't bring. And that more than makes up for the lack of playbook understanding.
Yup. Get enough plays off and you get a lot of offense run and pass.Run pass ratio isn't a problem anymore

The reason I'm so concerned about Nassib isn't because he was so exceptional, but because he was sooo much better than any of the other guys we've had over the last 14 years. I can't go back to RJ Anderson, Andrew Robinson, or god forbid Perry Patterson and his grandmother.I am in the boat that we will get solid production out of the qb spot next year as long as the offense can remain balanced... Or should I say multiple...
That effort yesterday was Stanford esque
Even if we didnt have Allen coming in who is one of the crown jewels of our recruiting class, we would still have a way more talented stable of QB's next year than that horror show of QB's you just mentioned.The reason I'm so concerned about Nassib isn't because he was so exceptional, but because he was sooo much better than any of the other guys we've had over the last 14 years.

Nassib could have VERY easily had 3 INTs today, including a pick-6 that could have brought WVU back in the game at the start of the 4th quarter.
He is replaceable. Without question, he is replaceable. And those on this board that think he is the second coming will find out others are also capable, despite not understanding 100.0% of the playbook. 85% is just as good if the skill set includes improvisational plays (Broyld, Hunt).

I seriously doubt Broyld is ever playing QB here.

Seriously.So we have guys on the roster that could be 2nd round picks at QB? Excellent.
Yea, he almost had a pick 6. I saw an NFL game yesterday where a pick 6 was dropped. And that QB was playing in good conditions. Big deal, it happens. It was hard fir anyone to grasp the ball in that mess. The zip was gone on many passes.
Nobody is going to use that game to evaluate Nassibs, nor Smiths, passing ability.
Nassib is not going to be as easy to replace as you make it sound.

This to me is the biggest reason for optimism. We're doing things on offense that can put the QB in position to face defenses that over the course of the game get tired, confused and tentative.I also think our system has entered the modern college football era.

I don't care about NFL. I care about college football.
Kellen Moore was a tremendous college QB who was never drafted by an NFL team. The same can be said for numerous guys.
Nassib is replaceable. Due to o-line play, improved skill position players and an improved understanding of our coaching staff of the college game. I think we have guys capable of adding new dimensions to the offense and, while they likely will not match Nassib in the passing categories they could become just as effective moving our offense.
Yeah, Nassib has only had one of the most statistically prolific seasons in school history.Well everyone is replaceable. And if those around you superior and not as much is on your shoulders, then yes the offense can be as good. But know this, whomever is the QB next year will not be as good if a QB as Nassib this year.

Oh, it's going to be Loeb. Unless Allen comes in and is the best freshman QB the world has ever seen it will be Loeb.I will ask this rhetorical question, though: how many times has either Hackett or Marrone said that they would have no problem putting Loeb in the game if it came down to it?
Hmm, I wonder who the starter will be at QB next year ...
Yep "King Acumen".
Nice job.
