We'll see. Just because he committed to Utah doesn't mean he's actually good. I suspect he is though and the coaching here had a lot to do with it. He has talent. It's a shame he transferred from UW.

Doesn't matter if he's good. Against UW he will be 25 of 33 for 447 yards and 6 touchdowns. Cook it!RoadDawg55 said:We'll see. Just because he committed to Utah doesn't mean he's actually good.

He seemed talented to me, but then again, this is UW.RoadDawg55 said:We'll see. Just because he committed to Utah doesn't mean he's actually good. I suspect he is though and the coaching here had a lot to do with it. He has talent. It's a shame he transferred from UW.
If he turns out good, it's going to reflect very poorly on this staff. -
Looks like @Dennis_DeYoung and I were right
-
Fuck. Better start praying for an ACL tear.
-
I expect him to fail until he doesn't.
QBs that wash out and go to junior college don't have a high success rate. -
This fucking smarts. I don't even know what to say.
-
He'd plunger UW if he played defense. He'll be going against a very good defense next year.
-
He must be good since he has his own Adidas commercial.
-
Williams who? We just got a kid to flip from New Mexico St!
-
-
I hope he throws 7 TDs against our DAWGS
-
Is he their starter next year?
-
Do they have wind in utah?

Good thing we never gave him a chance other than a monsoooon -
Pete hates quarterblacks.

I'm sure Smith told God to make it rain, just to make Troy look bad. He couldn't beat out Jeff Lindquist to play at Hawaii, nor Cyler Miles. He had his chances, spring ball and fall practice.FreeChavez said:

When Magna Carta transfers after this season, I'm going to complain that he was never allowed to start except against Stanford. It should be mandatory that each QB on the team should get to start 3 games. That way, a backup will never transfer and we'll never wonder what could have been.

Either Petersen is really horrible at evaluating quarterbacks (and he was a qb back in the day) or the guy didn't play himself into a starting roll.
I know 7' Wilson is graduating so good luck to Williams, but I don't think we missed out on the next Russell Wilson, or even Kaperdick. -
Yeah I trust coaches who picked Miley and Brownsocks. And Smith to coach them

I'm looking at results and the history of various coaches fucking up the QB position. The results are two years of shitty QB play and shitty offensive coaching, a trend that started at Boise
I'm just not prepared to claim that Troy couldn't have beaten any of the dreck out. He left for a reason. Did he get a fair shot?
Showing up at Utah where they get the most out of the position is a red flag to me
It's a question that has no definitive answer. But until I see a lot better results out of the position I'll doubt anything Petersen and Smith do -
I am fine with saying they couldn't develop Williams or any QB, but I am not sure where the notion that he did not get a fair shot came from. It just sounds to me a lot like the Lindquist people who claim he never got a fair shot, because Hawaii was the first game of the year. I am also not sure why you think Utah gets the most out of their QB's. I have to admit I am not familiar with Utah QB's, but they seem to have been unremarkable since Urban Meyer left. For 4 years the best they could do is Travis Wilson, I think that should be a red flag about Utah's ability to groom Qb's.RaceBannon said:

We're not talking about Lindy.

Utah gets the most out of the position? Wtf does that even mean. Utah is built on defense. They haven't had even an average QB since Alex Smith.RaceBannon said:

You are looking at the right evidence but leaping to the wrong conclusions. If our QB play and coaching sucks and Troy still couldn't get on the field then the logical conclusion is that Troy was even worse than what was available. Maybe partly due to coaching.
Never has the legend of a backup QB grown more on 5 slants and checkdowns against a 4th quarter prevent defense than that of Mr. Troy Williams. -
Thinking Williams was going to be great if he just got a "fair" shot is just buying in to the Sark mythos.
Ooh an athletic QB from SoCal who can really "spin it." Did I mention Elite 11? Unstoppable in 7 on 7.
Guess what: most QBs flame out. And as it turns out Sark was even worse than average at throwing darts. Montana, Brown, Lindquist, Miles, Williams, and that guy who never even made it to campus. It's all good bro! -
Utah sucks at qb and its why they never win their division. Thanks for the one liner though.
