He’s a freshman on a team that hasn’t been go a bowl game in 8 years. There was no run threat until Dana took over and the WR room was below average this year. He’s going to have growing pains and there wasn’t anyone on that side of the ball to help mitigate that. I do think he needs to work with a different QB coach to get him away from the Mahomes mechanics he uses too much.
I can agree with getting him away from Mahomes qb coach.
The guy needs to focus on seeing the defense downfield.
He’s shown he can complete an easy pass within a few yards of the LOS. which is great.
But once you start getting 10+ yards downfield he falls apart fast. You can play to stop an underneath route and play 1v1 on the outside and more than likely stop him.

Pretty sure he hit fewer deep balls this season than HH last year (with half the receiver talent). Just terrible from 25+

Does everybody who perpetuate this narrative just delete from their memory he nailed multiple sail routes against quarters and hit Neyor in stride on an over route off PA? I can pull up the all-22 of him consistently throwing accurate passes > 10 yards from almost every game this season.

Y’all need to get a grip he’s far from our issue.
 
He played like a true FR. I was disappointed with how he appeared to regress midseason, but if we can keep DH he'll at least have a competent offense and better development.

He's got a lot of football to be played.

He's pulling just the stats from the toughest part of the schedule, then extrapolating those stats out - taking out the easier games from the easiest part of the schedule - for the entire year. So just ganking the stats from the entire teams toughest schedule, where the entire team basically coughed up hairballs left and right, but putting that on a true frosh QB. Total bullshit.

Did any other true freshman, hell even redshirt freshman QB, have a better year than Raiola? Not just in the B1G - in all of power 4, even just all of CFB, period? Probably not.

Yet we have a dude solely blaming our - best in the country - true frosh QB for our woes.

Short Bus is too nice of a term to describe this.
 
It’s idiotic. But it shows Holgs impact has really been a direct correlation to Raiola playing better.
Offense runs smoother, and has a better play calling rhythm. But the biggest impact he’s brought is the emergence of a decent run game.

I’m going to take a very wild guess and suggest that with an entire offseason, fall camp, new talent, and a year under his QB’s belt that Holgerson’s offense looks a ton different next year.

Ive already said the holgs stats were stupid.

But I also don’t give a shit what he did. Vs utep and UNI so I took out non conference games.

And best in the country true frosh qb is a stupid claim. How many did he compete against?

He needs to work mostly on his footwork.
 
The Cockeye official Twitter account is now showing our moronic not shaking hands pre game.

Can we please stop giving the rest of the country reasons to laugh?

The fact that you don’t find it relevant that there weren’t many freshman starting QBs to compare DR to highlights how dumb you are.

You literally cherry-picked stats. No other CFB player has stats from the easier parts of the schedule thrown out.

And you are the one making stupid claims, bending 20 ways like a pretzel trying to make one player, a true frosh QB, look worse than he was.

And why throw out the Holgs games?? Could you not see the HUGE difference in how the offense ran overall vs the Shitterfield games? Wanna cherry-pick stats? Compare the Shitterfield games MINUS the "easy" games he OC'd (first 3rd of the schedule), then compare those stats to the 3 games Holgs called as OC. I mean, that would actually make SOME sense, so we could compare the real biggest issue of the offense - a beyond horrible OC who held the entire offense back, had opposing DC's laughing their asses off how easy he was to read, and putting way more heat and pressure on a true frosh QB to "save the day".
