^^ I'm not a huge Steele fan. I'm a fan, but it's not all I talk about on this board. I don't put his picture as my avtar. My name isn't FootballInCali.

FootballinTexas said:Those of you that say you have inside knowledge of this team know exactly what I'm talking about. It occurred in the KU game.
It was very obvious that this was the case. The team is behind JB. I could tell that from the first snap he took.
JB will get the call and I don't think there is much question about that although coaches will play it close to the vest to get the best out of everyone.
If I'm wrong, I'll gladly eat crow, but my opinion is this race is 95% JB starts, 5% SJ starts.
How? I like JB. Do I think he has a great chance to start? Yes. Do I think Steele has a great chance to start? Yes. Iowa State has two VERY VERY talented QBs.And yet your Steele boner is still showing from last season.
I'm actually kind of curious to see if Sam Richardson will get into the mix at all. CPR definitely kept it pretty open last year. probably will have the same policy this year. I think that if the team is struggling we might have a decent chance of seeing him out there.
Only a matter of time before "Sam's the Man"....
Yes. A matter of at least 1 calendar year.
And last year there was a very slim chance of JB seeing the field. Crazy stuff happens
I think the simpler playbook helps Jantz more. Barnetts biggest benefit was being in the system longer and knowing the playbook better. A better grasp of the playbook and likely improved mechanics and look out for Jantz.
Steele has hit the weight room hard in the off season and looks like the Hulk. This is going to be a good battle for the starting job.
Fantastic bump. I have yet to see if I posted anything in this thread, though.
