I love Brock but Seneca would be the starter on my all-ISU team.
Yes. He's playing the most important position better than any other ISU player before him. He will leave Iowa State with virtually all the passing related records, multiple bowl appearances, and the winningest player in school history.
What Davis did was amazing, but at the end of the day, it was meaningless. Iowa State was awful during the time period, only winning 5 games in those seasons. IMO to be the best player in the program history, you have to also win. Individual stats mean nothing if you lose every game.

Seneca was a better do it on your own player, Brock is a better within the framework of the team player. Both great, with very different teams around them.
Everyone will have their own opinions, but having had the opportunity to see both Seneca and Purdy play live and in person.... I think Seneca is better.
Seneca on this current team would be incredible to see. Nearly unstoppable IMO.

This is like asking me my favorite song. Seriously?!!
Brock is a great player. That said, I’m not even sure that he’s the best player on this team.
And the argument for”best ever” goes all the way back to Matt Blair and before.

It’s Troy David and second place is a long ways down. Love Breece and Hall but Troy is first and Matt Blair is second
It’s Seneca Wallace at the QB position. It’s not really all that close
Based on Purdy still being here. Purdy will be considered irreplaceable by Iowa fans in a year
Almost all of them. Better arm, faster...He carried that team. There are some things you can’t quantify numerically on the football field. I can see those under the age of 30 not knowing how good Wallace was though.
I’m not under the age of thirty. Or forty.
And while Seneca may have had the better arm—and definitely is faster—Brock is the better college QB.
I disagree. Both are difference makers but Seneca was better, even in college. He didn’t have the supporting cast that Purdy has.
Purdy has a much better arm than Wallace and it's not even close. Wallace had 18 INTs and only completed 55% of his passes as a senior
Yea Brock has IT. He is his best when the game is on the line.
It’s a good thing you’re not a talent evaluator because you’re not very good at it. Wallace could throw the ball on a dime across his body to the opposite side of the field. There’s a reason he lasted in the NFL for as long as he did. Like I said, there are some things you can’t quantify numerically. The Big 12 was arguably the toughest conference in the country that year too.
Purdy has a much better arm than Seneca and it's not even close. If you want to say Seneca had a stronger arm well sure. Steele Jantz and Jacob Park had stronger arms than Purdy. Purdy has the best arm ever at Iowa State and I've watched plenty of Iowa State football bud
Most accurate, throw under pressure, avoid turnover throws, etc. Arm strength is way down the list on what's most important for a college QB IMO
