Ty Simpson Waiting For His Chance......

[Probius]

Instead of denying Ty as QB1, maybe the team should have insisted on Ty back in 2023.

I'm guessing Ty wasn't ready back in 2023. Ty is playing great right now, but he is not the same QB or the same person now than he was in 2023. We are always changing and growing. I bet Ty has grown a lot since 2023.

Simpson is a solid quarterback and better yet he is a football guy. No prima donna traits. The offense had issues at times yesterday and he recognized that and spoke somewhat on them after the game and admitted his part in it. He is a great teammate and I think the players are picking up on this. There should be continued improvement because of this alone. The team is coming together in the right way. It is fun to watch this team with him at the helm. We got good receivers too. The OL will continue to improve.

With these getting paid in college I think you'll see less movement among players as far as guys entering the portal......at least at the upper level programs. if you're getting paid upwards of $150-200K (or even higher) why would you leave

The same reason they lave in the NFL, more money elsewhere

This. The QB he is today, wasn't the same one last year. I'm telling you he has made so much progress in the last few months. This kid is playing him into first round pick if he keeps up.

He’s playing at an extremely high level, obviously. I am a little surprised, however, that such a smart player continues to take sacks when it’s pretty clear the best option is to throw it away.
Other than that minor flaw… he’s been fabulous.

He reminds me of Mac Jones. Mac wasn't ready for quite some time, but then he had an amazing season in his 4th year. Sometimes it takes a player time to develop, but then they are fantastic once they do. I'm so excited to see what Ty is going to do for the rest of the season. RTR!

I think he’ll get better about that and he did take ownership of it after the game.

I think we have to accept a little bit of the ad libbing within reason because he’s also made some big plays that wouldn’t happen otherwise.

But there does become a point where you’ve gone past time for a 2nd or 3rd chance to save the play and you have to just give it up and throw the ball away.

He’s got to be better about sensing that break point.

Mac was ready in 2019. But had to wait for Tua to go.

Ty is certainly different now than in 2023 and has continued to develop. That doesn't mean that even then he wasn't the best option
