So if the beat was wrong about this.....does that mean.....Burress won't be in the top 6?

2008 time to learn NDNation-ease bucko


/s
Unless Denbrock was just trying to motivate Burress with his comments about the playbook, it would seem like he’s not going to get a lot of reps.

MF threw out info to ID the leaks. Guy is playing 3D chess. Lets go CJ!!! Merck speeding around campus on his road bike flipping everyone off right now.
Just like the Browns smoked out the leaker who fed info they were looking at Condee Rice as a head coach candidate

It's also great because, when we had BK the beat absolutely could manipulate people into turning on him when they didn't get the info or access they wanted, because he was such a prick and we all were pretty much holding our noses to cheer for the guy to begin with.

But with Marcus, he's so likable the beat has absolutely zero leverage. He can't be manipulated by them. Love seeing these self-important losers get put in their place.

I think this is a good decision -- Carr appeared to be the more talented passer in the BG game. If he sucks and we go 0-2 we can always switch to Minchey and run the table and make the playoffs. Hopefully in that scenario, the adversity would induce Carr to stick around another year in the program and compete again for 2026.

Lmao. This is great. Screw the media. Do you think Coach Freeman did this to subconsciously get in Carr’s head and see how he responds?

But feel for Kenny. One snap away!

I hope not. I'm ecstatic it's Carr, he has NFL upside, but you don't play games with Minchey like that.

If anyone has the patience to wade through Driskell's next livestream please be so kind as to share the tantrum here

Why is IB getting tagged re: QB competition? Were they at the forefront of breaking inside information on the QB battle or something? I thought that was Irish Illustrated or someone else who was pushing it.

I think IB staff favored Carr due to upside (like everyone else around here), but their whole thing this week was that they would be fine with Carr or Minchey so long as the process is good.

BD said he was worried they would announce Minchey but not give him the runway to make a few mistakes before turning to Carr; essentially BD / IB's position on the battle seems to be whoever gets the nod needs to be given a chance to develop on the field and not be looking behind their back once the season starts.

Seems reasonable... not sure what meltdown people think is incoming.

So based on what we are seeing now' Seems like the beat was wrong about 1. Arrows report of CJ taking the one reps being false. 2. Kenny being named the starter on Friday. 3. CJ having an awful Saturday where he threw multiple picks. 4. It being inevitable Kenny was going to be named the starter. Truly a remarkably embarrassing 5 day period for all of them
