Palmetto Proving Grounds

Agree with this. One of my main concerns.

Has a 2nd team All SEC preseason QB ever not started the first game for his team?

Because he has never done anything in a real football game. He played Garcia to a draw in two hand touch.

He is serious

I think Spurrier is fed up with Garcia bc, after 5 years he can't make all the throws, doesn't go through the progressions, and doesn't know the playbook as well as Shaw.

Oh, and if you think Garcia is the leader of this team, you need to look up the definition of the word "leader".

Yes they were both playing the same game

Well the practice isn't going to change, and you certainly don't know what you got to trot him out there. They weren't throwing against air.

I read the hype. I believed the press that Garcia was doing what it took to be a leader. So I went to one of the Sat scrimmages...to see it in person and what I saw was one QB laughing joking around and half ass waring up and the other had " the eye of the tiger"...Conner Shaw is all business ladies and gentlemen. Spurrier relates to his approach and likes the way he approaches the game. My question to each of you is if this team was your business... Would you stake the company on a fly by the seat of your pants rebel or would you prefer a steady- grounded hungry young man? Spurrier cannot go wrong here folks.

I dont now about if he should have transfered....but I can understand the drinking. It is just one more brick in the wall for Garcia's time here at USC.

I understand Spurrier knows more about football...etc, etc. With that being said, I believe most of us have played sports and see both sides. I've seen SG first hand for multiple seasons show his leadership on the field. I just dont see how you could make that call based on camp stats. SG has proven himself on the field ,and based on the inside reports, off the field as well as of late. He may not be the best "practice" player but he makes me feel confident when he's in the game. If Spurrier wants both to play...fine...but give your 5th year senior the start.

So what happens when both Shaw and Garcia have decent games? I can spell QB controversy all season. Believe me, Im not trying to be "debbie downer" or panic....all Im saying is let the 5th year senior start....

You know Ole Miss would have taken him. No doubt he would have found a decent home.

He knows why. He's being willfully ignorant.
