Is Purdy the guy?

He wasn’t highly rated. Just a 3 star. He was highly recruited...by two other teams, really. A&M and ‘Bama.
Darn happy we’ve got him.
I know it's just been one game, but I don't remember when an ISU quarterback so consistently hit his receivers with a catchable ball. On that play where Deshaunte Jones made a great blocking fake and then broke free toward the end zone, how many QBs have we had that would have overthrown that ball and we get nothing? I've seen that 1,000 times as a Cyclone fan over 45 years.
Purdy hit Jones perfectly in stride, so that he didn't have to speed up or slow down or change course, the ball just came perfectly right into his hands. If that is what we are going to get from Purdy game after game, this would be a new era in ISU QB play.

Purdy had one good game against a terrible Oklahoma State team. Not saying he isnt the second coming of Tom Brady, but didnt kempt beat Oklahoma, a much much better team than Oklahoma State?
Fans are quick to forget.

I would say Oklahoma State's defense this year is better than Oklahoma's was last year..
Purdy has not had a bad game. And the team has won both of the games Purdy has played in.
Likely because the offense has largely been forgettable since that OU game.
Last year’s team had already put up 41 on a better defense than OU’s, and it was downhill for the offense after the game in Norman (except for Noland against Ok St).
Hopefully we don’t see the same easy to defend, restrictive offense with Purdy that we did with Kempt and even Noland this year
I watched the game and purdy looked great, especially for a freshman.
I also watch Tech play oklahoma state and they made bowman look like Joe namath.
bowman had a miserable half against wvu at home the very next week(before being knocked out at end 1st half with collapsed lung.
WVU has a very fast defense, unlike oklahoma State. If purdy can run on wvu i think hell be able to run on anyone.

Hopefully the Mountaineers don't try to take Purdy out of the game through targeting like Okie State did. Just play it fair and square.
Hopefully Purdy has more help in the running game. If Montgomery is back and full strength it will make a big difference.
Good luck Saturday.
Man, you never miss a chance to beat a dead horse. True the physically abilities of Parks replacements may have cost us a game or two, but the demeanor and leadership may have gotten a couple wins we hadn't predicted. If Park hadn't sheet on his teammates, coachs and fans with his choices the offensive would be more open. But, he did and the coaches moved forward with the next best option. Purdy shows great promise to get the offense moving again. I get a laugh out of your know it all smug comments, but you seem bitter the team had successes without Park. Let it go, whats done is done.
I didn’t mention Park, but get emotional about it if you wish.
Kempt was a great story, but he’s a limited QB in which it was becoming difficult for the team to overcome. Part of that is on the staff, as well. That’s not beating a dead horse, it’s a response to someone comparing Purdy to Kempt.
This thread is the definition of beating a dead horse.
I'm excited for tomorrow night.
