What does he know, he just the head coach. Fan's are much smarter than him. The only reason Hill is starting is because he's married to a Texan and so Ty favors him over the much more talented Tanner.

Kalani forgot - or the quote didn't include - the word "alone" or "all". Taysom is certainly not blameless in the equation of the offensive struggles through three games. The question is how much of it IS Taysom and how much could be corrected by a change.

My answer is I don't know. And because I don't know, I don't want to see a change made. Taysom is playing poorly, but we have had chances to be 3-0. We've been in every game. Taysom CAN play better and should continue to be given that opportunity until we either 1) start losing games by wide margins or 2) he doesn't start playing better.

I don't know when those would be but we're at least one full game away from that.

I do think that Taysom has missed some throws, but the poor play by the receivers and oline has been much more stark IMO. One of the things that the bench Taysom crowd is forgetting is that a bunch of the long plays that Tanner hit on last year were great catches by receivers going up and winning on jump ball situations. We lost 3 sr receivers last year that played with much more toughness than what our current group is playing at.

Everyone needs to check out what Nate is doing breaking down the miscommunication happening between QB and receiver.
