The Bobcat Nation

Is this man ignorant? Name a starter at QB! Watch out for the floodgates of criticism on this( the first three and out by whoever) there is not a qb on the roster good enough now! Wait, maybe when one qb gets a concussion and another one gets injured that's when a starter is named. Sorry, silly me.

It's hard to criticize an undefeated coach's decisions, but it does happen.

Why should he name a starter? He's got Souers and Company pulling their damn hair out in Flagstaff trying to figure out how to prepare for Selle, Roper and even Kemp. If you think that's idiotic, that's pretty much the reason he's on the sideline and you're on a message board.

Roper is looking like a dud, as much as everyone (bobby included) wants him to be the guy, Selle is steady enough get them into the playoffs, Kempt as a wildcat is intruging and give teams somthing else to prepare for. Roper gets another shot is my guess but unless he really shines he will settle for Selle.

I don't think you can call Roper a dud. The QB ratings for both Selle and Roper are very good. I do agree that it appears Selle has the upper hand and Roper will need to shine to win the spot.

I said looking like a dud, maybe that wasnt quite right, but based on the hype put out by the moroon koolaid drinkers he is not living up to expectations, with the concussion (not his first) I dont think he will be back for a few weeks. Selle looks like he is up to the task though so they are fine at the QB position.

Hauck Ignorant? Nah.

Roper a dud...oh, excuse me, "looking" like a dud. No. However, you'd kill for him w/ what you guys have at QB. Oh wait, you have a Pac-10 drop down. How's he working out for ya?

bout like your Pac 10 drop down, spends most of his time on the sidelines, I doubt that roper plays a full game for you this year.

That's odd. I remember most of the "maroon Kool-Aid drinkers" on this board saying they weren't certain that Roper would even get the nod over Selle, and almost all of the Cat fans (and almost certainly you, 2506) were absolutely CERTAIN that there was no way Hauck wouldn't play Roper all year.

You can do better than that DHiW, It was all over the dark board about how he was gonna light things up.

Find one post before this week where I even commented on Roper, let alone said I was CERTAIN the nose would play him all year?

We won't play just one qb in ANY game this year. If Roper is a "go", we'll play THREE. Any of which would be your #1.

You're correct; I owe you an apology. You were not involved in the SEVEN page thread by cat fans who claimed that Roper would start no matter what....

who cares?

The point is somebody should be named the starter, the sooner the better IMO. If the griz are 6-0, 7-0, 8-0 with rotating Qb's I'll be a believer, but show me a football team at any level that is playing 3 qb's and not because of injuries. Maybe I'm not giving Bob enough credit for his coaching ability. Bob said that Selle is going to start because, " he's going to get more practice time." I think it might be a case of having 3 mediocre QB's and not knowing what to do, too much uncertainty.

And didnt Roper get the majority of plays in the big season opener with Western State Insurance?

So actually not only do you owe me an apology but the posters that posted on that thread were right too in that bobby showed that he will wanting to go with Roper but it just isnt working out now that we are into the season.

Actually Selle got the start aginst Western St. and both played six series. Selle played the first 3 series, roper the next 3, then selle, then roper. Roper just got more plays because he moved the ball better. Roper got the start against UC-Davis and again they rotated after 3 series. Roper IMO played better against UC-Davis and got the start against Portland State. Never know how that would've turned out as he got hurt. Selle came in and played great. Like its been mentioned before, the 3 QBs plus 1 WR/exQB that the Griz have are better than anything the Bobcats have right now.

No. Selle and Roper split time in that game. So...I guess you owe me an apology 2506 if we want to get all technical.

I agree, there needs to be an apology! I forgot to give my assessment of the griz qb's: 1) Selle- Not consistent enough after 3 years in the program, that's why he hasn't been named the starter. 2) Roper- looks like a swimmer or a cross country runner/marathoner, looks like he doesn't have enough strength to walk up a flight of stairs, at 6'7 165 pounds, should probably be on the hoops team. 3) Kemp- apparently doesn't have any cartilage in his throwing arm, had to run 10 straight times in the PSU game! 3 mediocre qb's, too much uncertainty!

Let's clarify something! Several of you owe Cats2506 the apology!
