Hawk fans gonna turn on Stanley

I am a huge Purdy fan. I can also admit I would love to see Re-Al. I am not hoping for that but it would be awesome to see his talent based on what folks have said about his athletic abilities. I know they had some things drawn up for him specifically towards end of season. The situation never really allowed for it.
Tim Tebow also won a heisman as a sophomore. So did Sam Bradford and Lamar Jackson. There are plenty of players that didn't take a step back their sophomore year. It's a stigma and usually happens when the players put too much pressure on themselves. I don't think that's the type of person or player Purdy is.
All of us aren't putting superhuman expectations on him just the usuals who never learn. In an earlier post, you claimed everybody would be screaming for Re-al at the first sign of trouble for Purdy so props for scaling that down to a more realistic several. We have a lot of stupid fans but there are plenty of us who actually understand sports enough to not get ridiculously high and low. Sophomore Slump is definitely a thing but it's not a guarantee by any means and possible Brock avoids it. To your last point, you really want to use adult in a condescending way when you just admitted to screaming at somebody like a lunatic in a grocery store?
In my defense, it was outside the grocery store AND SHE STARTED IT!!!!
Well, talking credit score smack is something probably only an adult would do, a stupid immature adult, but an adult nonetheless.
Save your deep breathing and eye rolls. Yes, ISU fans would talk about the backup qb if Purdy or any other qb struggled for multiple games in a row. Which makes them the same as any other fanbase. So why give Iowa fans a hard time for this?
1. They have a rich tradition of booing their QBs on the field

2. They are our rivals. It's fun to give them **** and never let them forget this.
So, remind me again why you are so concerned about making a glass house argument to defend their honor here?
As others have said, it would be tame compared to losing to, say, Baylor because the fan base has conference title aspirations this year. Taking an "L" to Iowa would be obnoxious as ****, does nothing in the bigger picture.
I never once claimed to be mature. Don't put words in my mouth.
Jesus man, up the dosage of Lexapro. All I said was, if Purdy has a bad game, people on here will also be asking for the backup QB. I hope it doesn't happen, but just assuming it won't based off of 10 games is rather insane. I forgot that having a rational thought on here gets you crucified. For Chirst sake ALABAMA was calling for their backup QB after Hurts went what, 14-2? It happens.
They have factual evidence on their side. Hell the only difference between you and them, as far as unwarranted arrogance, and questionable genetic make up, is like 6 national championships
Oh I'm never happy but that stamp definitely kicked my self loathing up a couple notches. Now I remember why I avoid ISR!
