- McKee is a massive recruiting bust
This seems premature to me. Are you saying this because Tanner McKee didn't beat out Jack West for the first-game starter in 2020? After all, McKee was a true freshman who hadn't played competitive football in over two years. Common sense would dictate that McKee will be better this fall than he was last fall.
I actually think our offense will be pretty good in 2021. The defense, on the other hand, could be bad for the third year in a row, which is really concerning to me.
Yes, if a 5-star recruit with a year under his belt can't beat out a guy who (IMnsHO) isn't even a mediocre starting QB, then he is a bust
Still don't get it, winflop. In fall 2020 McKee was a true freshman, coming off his LDS mission where he played zero competitive football. He did not have a year under his belt at that time. What he had was two years away from the game.
Now with a year in the system, per Samuel McF and others, McKee is poised to be starting QB over West. I still think it's extraordinarily premature to call McKee a bust, and I expect to see a much better QB than we saw briefly in 2020.
Winflop is agreeing with you. After a year in the system. You guys are talking past each other.
