Gonna be weird after all this time to see a white boy back there :lupe:
Yeah that’s my only issue. We’ve had a run since Troy in 2004 to the present (other than the Todd Boeckman year, had to wash the stank off of that and put Terrelle in as a freshman). Gonna be really weird.

Looking like the CFL all league team :russ:

Jokes aside, I'd like to see MSU make strides to keep our meeting within a 10 point game, but it's in CBus so likely the standard OSU by 30 :sadcam:I hope y'all bash scUM's skulls in this season tho...fukk two B1G playoff teams...need us, y'all and PSU to all handle biz this year.

As you saw in the playoffs, CJ is mobile, he’s just not a running QB, and we didn’t need him to be one. He’s much more effective moving around the pocket and taking shots down field. Dwayne was less mobile than CJ and that was never a problem. Justin just happens to be one of the more athletically gifted QBs we’ll see as evident by his NFL QB rushing records already. We have too many elite receivers making plays down field to want our QBs to run a lot. That’s the old Urb offense that bogged down in the 2016 playoff run.

We can be fans of the squad and still tell the truth.

There were far too many times in games where the Offense wasn't humming to it's ability and CJ would have 10 plus yards of green in front of him and far too many times he didn't take it.

Compare that to the first half against Michigan when JJ said fukk it and ran the ball into the end zone cause that was the ONLY(or at least BEST) option on said play.

TCU doesn't beat Michigan if Max doesn't scramble and create on otherwise dead plays.

With the way modern spread offense is played at the college level , Aint no excuse for not having a mobile QB

CJ is my guy and i'm not trying derail the thread but I and many other scouts, analyst, and evaluators know what we saw.

He has my vote as the best PURE/pocket passer in the country tho.

Yea CJ has a great feel for the passing game. Its just his overall football game isnt there all the time.

Mahomes and Burrow arent elite athletes but they know how to put just enough pressure on the defense when running and dont simple let plays die when guys are covered.

If he goes to bad team its critical that he figures out how to move more until his game fully develops.

Offense has never been the problem tho. Each of the 4 losses with CJ was the defense giving up over 40 or damn near 40 points in each game. This last game is the first loss in OSU history where we scored 40+ and still lost. CJ running is a minor thing that was never a thing to begin with. What run against Oregon did he not make that would have changed the game? Or scUM last two games? We can’t nitpick because the offense didn’t score 50 every game and count that as a flaw because CJ didn’t run enough. Nobody is perfect, just saying the CJ needed to run more narrative was always overblown.
