AgreeThe screw up , the monumental screw up , of stoops neutering Livas and telling him not to be a playmaker , but to be a classic pocket passer not only cost WL millions , it cost UK several wins and a great season last year .

I never understood the Levis hype. I thought he was 3rd round at bestLifelong Kentucky Football fan here but Will Levis’ slide in this draft has got to be the most “UK football” thing ever. Just absolutely classic and par for the course that is the misery of being a fan.
I like will but there lies, damn
I don't think it is as much that as it is that teams don't need QBs.How much of Rich Scangarello is to blame?
Not Stoops per se. But definitely Scrang’s. Absolutely God awful hire. Levis should call him up to deck him right in the schnoz. Scrang cost Levis money tonight.Huh? No it’s not.
geno smithHas a guy in the draft room ever not been drafted in the first round? I know people slip to the bottom, but don’t remember anyone not getting called.
Okay...no I don't believe reddit posts. CBS had him at 25th at best. He can't layer passes or roll out to his left.Didn’t believe it then , don’t believe it tonight ..
I'll be honest here, I don't see any potential for Richardson as a QB. This was a terrible pick and someone will regret it as they pack their belongings in a banker box and exit the premises.Levis and Richardson played head to head. It was no contest. Apparently the pros like potential over performance. It will be interesting to see if Richardson can live up to his potential.
Joey Porter Jr is there with his family.Has a guy in the draft room ever not been drafted in the first round? I know people slip to the bottom, but don’t remember anyone not getting called.
Scang***. That was Scang. It was identical to the garbage San Francisco has ran out as “offense” for years.The screw up , the monumental screw up , of stoops neutering Livas and telling him not to be a playmaker , but to be a classic pocket passer not only cost WL millions , it cost UK several wins and a great season last year .
Not to mention a dude that scored a 18% on the cognition test was drafted ahead of him which is alarming as hell to meHoping for the best and using my brain to see WL wasn’t a # 1 draft guy is not being a jerk . I still want him to succeed , but I never ever bought into the hype he was a top 5 pick
If there are any bridges burned Scangarello might be warning teams of Levis. Idk seems sketchy. He has two former coaches with tight nfl connections and doesn’t get a sniff. TebowedNot Stoops per se. But definitely Scrang’s. Absolutely God awful hire. Levis should call him up to deck him right in the schnoz. Scrang cost Levis money tonight.
They hate UK. Hate us.I feel so bad for Will and his family tonight. WHY in the world did ESPN bring him there when Chris Mortenson KNEW that Will's toe was STILL a problem and teams were leery of taking him as a high pick?????
ESPN is a bunch of DIRTBAGS and allowing Todd McShay to sit there and FREAKIN LAUGH because Will hadn't been picked just to throw shade at Mel Kiper was just CLASSLESS!!!
I CAN'T STAND ESPN!!!!

i’m sure Goodell’s fuming right now….Goodell probably isn't happy. They don't like inviting players unless they are sure they are going 1st round. Bad look for the NFL
They missed on 4 guys this year, you can bet he's pissedHe’s
i’m sure Goodell’s fuming right now….
I think this had more to do with injuries than Stoops not wanting him to be a playmaker.Agree
I swear, the wonderlick had dumb questions but apparently the S2 try’s to test actual cognition and fast recognition skills. It may have nothing to do with Football on paper but it does show how fast he processes information and how he uses that information, which QB’s have to do a ton. That’s why Manning was one of the 5 best QB’s ever, his mind.Will will be better than at least one of CJ Stroud or AR15. 18% on the new intelligence test for Stroud, lol, that GM better hope every braincell that kid has that does function is geared toward route reading and snap decision making because dumb is not a characteristic you want in a franchise QB.
A lot of it IMO.How much of Rich Scangarello is to blame?
At least he didn’t end up alone. I feel bad for him, that had to sting.
Best way to look at it now.Sucks for him but it might be better to go later and possibly land on a good team as a backup for a few years.
I still believe our coordinator hurt him, now they are saying his Toe isn’t 100% still. Plus rumblings about horrible interviews.Meh says more about Indy and their awful executives than anything. Unless you're playing 7 on 7 in shorts, AR has no business in any of the first 3 rounds period. That should've been Levis by any even quasi reasonable measure.
Then you had the titans head scratcher by them not taking a qb. After that, noone else needed a QB.
It was all an awful choice, a bad choice, then lack of need. Nothing to do with UK, it's offense, or anything else.
An outside chance too that his agent was completely outmaneuvered for that 4th pick. Levis had caa which is one of the best shops, but can't fault him for being furious at them for his slide. Looks like they were out gamed
He could have done that in the first round too. I think Indy, Tennessee, Tampa Bay, New England, NYG, NYJ, San Diego all had reasonable need or insurance to pick a QB. Possibly even the Saints if Carr isn’t the answer.Best way to look at it now.
Sad thing is the class wasn’t that strong, when AR is the 3rd QB taken and he went freaking 4th overall, that’s weak AF.I think he should have come back to Kentucky.

I 100% agree except Indy watched Hurts, Geno Smith, and Lamar play. Then he had the combine + he has a huge arm. They envision a guy who can be taught how to play the NFL game and salivate. In reality he’s no where close to their talent level playing QB, only athletically.If on field performance was heavily weighted, then Richardson would be potentially undrafted.
If anything the coordinator change helped him. He showed the ability to operate two subtly different NFL offenses which are also by far the predominant schemes in the NFL. Richardson nor stroud has ever been under center. Young was mostly gun too iirc.
There's really no way to explain Richardson at 4 to Indy. None. Yet it happened
I never understood the Levis hype. I thought he was 3rd round at best
You're a damn troll. There were others like Branch, Joey Porter who were also there that didn't get drafted.Bingo. Again, most UK Football thing ever. Just absolutely freaking classic.
