Leary not living up to expectations

[Drudis]

Through 6 games his completion rate is 57.7% at 82/142 with 10 td’s and 5 int’s. Yes I know our receivers have been subpar at best but halfway through the season he just hasn’t lived up to the expectations.

Let’s hope he can turn things around sooner than later and form a cohesive passing game with Brown and Key.

10TDs against ball state, Vanderbilt, Eastern Kentucky, and the worst Florida team in 15 years. That's very pathetic. He might throw 2-3TDs combined the next 6 games.

 

[dckala2]

Dudes trash. He’s gone after this year right?

 

[ala_kat2]

Surely we have someone better. Leary is not even middle-of-the-road good.

 

[ukwazoo]

The stat test says he's average. The eye test tonight says he's garbage.

 

[Philstat]

Ole Dreary, said this weeks ago and was attacked, time for a change, IMO.

Could it be our offensive scheme? I mean I know he is missing his fair share of wide open passes, but how could he go from being so good to now being so bad? Our coaches were so high on this guy. Boggles the mind.

Only Kentucky could get the best QB in the portal, and he's hot dog water so far.

Pectoral injury, ACC to SEC jump, Learning a new scheme.

Unfortunately, he's not good. And that is a statistical fact. Hope he gets better and finds his groove, because he is huting the offense at this point. And, Jagr Burton sucks.

Its the Curse.

He’s inadequate for an SEC team that expects to compete. Yet we’ll have to suffer with him forever.
7-5 or 6-6. But what else is new.

 

[megablue]

I am as surprised and disappointed as anybody. I really expected Leary to be much better than he's been. He has barely been ordinary, if even that.

He really only had one season better than that even in the ACC so I’m not sure what we expected to be honest.

Looks like he isn't physically able to be the QB everyone thought he would be. His injuries must have been more serious than we thought and we got damaged goods. He consistently misses wide open receivers badly. I have no faith in him any longer and wish we would be willing to try someone else. But, what do I know.

 

[NoDef]

His deep ball has been terrible this year. Once he missed the pass to a wide open Robinson the game was over.

Stoops specialty. Our offense has mostly stunk since he's been here.

We have nobody else. Sheron is not an SEC QB and we saw what we had with Wade. He threw more complete passes to Iowa than our WR's.

 

[NoDef]

I'm afraid if we don't start playing faster and a more Quarterback friendly offense then the days of even getting a Leary talent are over at UK. Coen can only get by with coach speak for so long until the stats start being used against him on the recruiting trail. We have literally played every bad team on our schedule this year, so it might not get much better. Stoops promise to play fast is pretty much like Cal. He just says it and never does it..

 

[BBNinSC]

Actually, Leary looks soft and out of shape. I question his determination and work ethic at this point.

 

[ukalumni00]

I think it’s a mixture of things. Coming back from injury, does not look to be in great shape and the offensive scheme. He is a higher tempo shotgun style QB. The prostyle slow paced scheme is not his strength. The SEC angle does not make alot of sense because he was very average against the OOC cupcakes. Add that the WR’s do not look like they have developed physically or skill wise at all since last season and it translates to their poor play on the field.

 

[catben]

Leary is NOT what he was advertised to be and was BLOWN UP to be even better than Levis during the Summer!!! In today's game the QB is the most important position on the team. You MUST have someone that can make ALL of the throws which is NOT too much to ask.

I am hopeful that Boley and Sanders will be the start of something Coach Stoops has NEVER had since his arrival, HS QB's that come in and DEVELOP into winning SEC QB's.

 

[NoDef]

I've heard a few people say that the Elam kid from Corbin outperformed the Boley kid at camp this summer. I don't even think the Elam kid will step foot on a football field after high school. He's either playing baseball for UofL or going to MLB. Doesn't help my confidence with Boley..

Never fall for the “4 star qb from KY”. When is the last time that panned out? JLo?

 

[Drudis]

TRASH. That is all.
