I'm curious too. Didn't Stoops say (either before or after the Texas game) that he was gonna build this team around Boley or something like that? I'd imagine Boley can't be too happy.
Zach Calzada a CAT !!!

Seems like a guy with a strong love of the game that is grateful for opportunities to play. Hope that translates to good leadership and success here.
Those QBs had competent offensive staff around them. This guy has Stoops and Ham man.
So what does Cutter Boley do? Sit for another year like most of us thought he would due to BV or seek another pasture?
Max Brosmer had some pretty good success at Minnesota this year after playing at New Hampshire.
Williams at UNLV took over after their starting QB left and was really good, leading them to a top 25 finish. Before he got the starting nod, Sluka from Holy Cross was leading the charge there
There are examples. Like everything else, it’s a crap shoot.
Hell, one of my favorite QB’s ever at UK, Stephen Johnson, transferred here from Grambling.
So what? Ever heard of this guy named Matthew Stafford? Won a Super Bowl after living in the cellar with Detroit.
At least he won’t be continually concussed so there’s a positive…
how much less is stoops buyout this time next offseason?
Because that’s what we’re sacrificing next season for.

Same here and I came in a big beleiver in Hamdan. Frustrated me to no end why we didnt use more short timing routes (catch and throw 7 yard out or 5 yard dig to a spot) or use the flats or short middle of the field at all. If they are bringing 5 or more thats the area to attack, not stupid screen passes behind the line.
Good observation. Not just D1-FCS but conference champs plus playoff level going 11-3 and making it to the quarter finals.
I’m more sold on Saunders being that guy than I am Boley.
Sanders should have an asterisk. Had his dad not been coaching, he would have been at a P4 school.
3 weeks ago the backup on the roster now that started against UofL was the 2nd coming. Why bring in this guy? Or maybe that was all horseshit hype to distract from the heat that should be on stoops and barney's ass.
This may be true, but we Boley seemed to get the ball out quicker from my inexperienced perspective.
If the KY Coaching staff doesn’t screw this up and has a plan the kid can execute I like the addition and think he can be a very good QB.
Really and your pump with the history that Stoops has with qbs welcome to the train wreck God it's going to be brutal again next year .
He kind of had me at "I was out of football and working in a warehouse and (incarnate coach) came and took a chance on me."
Que:
The road is long
There are mountains in our way
But we climb a step every day
Love lift us up where we belong
Where the eagles cry
On a mountain high

I did notice in the IW video, his throwing motion changed near the end of the video. Seemed to throw more sidearm than over the top.
His throw against Bama at the 30 second point in the first video was spot on the money.
Not so fast my friend. YPC is one measure of the rushing game, but the fact is UK was 81st in the nation in rushing yards per game. So, it is below average nationally.
You are right, but figure those numbers based on time of possession and # of plays ran per game. Less plays = less yards per game. Fact is, they ran for more than 5 yards per carry, so safe to say IF they would have ran more plays and opponents did not control time of possession, they would have ran for a lot more yards per game. UK had ZERO passing game, so they was not on the field to win T.O.P, and teams stacked the box against the run, and UK STILL averaged over 5 ypc. See how that works ? Your point is flawed, mine is based on facts. If the team had a more balanced offense (able to pass a little), and was able to sustain drives longer, they would have had more carries. Example, if they had 10 more rushing attempts per game, 10 x 5.34 per carry = 53.4 more yards per game rushing. Now the rushing yards per game changes greatly. They would have been a lot higher than 81st. With JUST the RB's total of 1388 yards for the year, divided by 12 games, that is 1115.66 per game, add the 53.4 yards from the extra carries, it now becomes 169.06 per game.
a bit wordy, but here is my takeaway: yes I'm right, the facts are the facts.
The rest are ifs and buts. They don't matter in reality and I'll illustrate why: if the team was able to run 20 more times a game, then the average 106.8 more yards per game and UK would be 4th in the nation. If I said that to someone, they would laugh. Ifs and buts are interesting for discussion, but they don't matter and they most certainly are not facts.
