Nope. MM made Sefo the face of the program as a Sophomore. He hitched his wagon to Sefo. I'd be shocked if anyone else started vs CSU assuming Sefo is available

I know, and my point is, unless both Fisher and Oliver prove to be better than him, he's still going to occupy one of the outside CB spots (assuming Chido is left in the slot like I believe he will be).

When I totally lost it when he was gifted a scholarship, people pointed to the distinction of a QB versus the multiple options for a receiver. And yet here are observations about who is not on the field as a result of his presence. Man I wish Mac had recognized the can of worms he was opening with that signing day surprise.
Surprise? What?
Hopefully Montez doesn't follow Lindgren to what I pray is a new job somewhere else.

My impression was that it was rumored as possible, but it was not clear he was even formally offered. Then on signing day, there he was. I could be wrong, and certainly am more upset by this than 99.9% of you.
So you don't know how many snaps he got? His 8 catches are 4 times Walker's catches, btw.
And yea, neither guy did much, especially once conference player started. Although Walker is certainly a better blocker.

No, there is not an official snap count for offense like there is defense on the stats for some reason. I can tell you based off the amount of times I saw the two on the field, JMac had at least 4x the snap count. Yes, both went quiet in conference play, but I can hardly even recall seeing Walker on the field in conference play.

Look at the signing day comments by digger and others. You can't see mine because they were justifiably dropped. He was never committed until signing day, and the Colorado offer was an outlier.
The kid is a good kid and I'll drop it. The scholarship was a mistake, and has hurt our recruiting at that position in my opinion.
I think you are being very weird about this and ignoring the other comments made that day. And wasn't he one of the higher rated guys we had that year? Either way, no skull duggery occurred.

I am not a big MacIntyre supporter but I do believe he will play at QB whomever he thinks gives them the best chance to win. Right now it will be Sefo unless Montez really steps up. IMO, neither Apsay or Gehrke are better than Sefo. Montez will be a rsFrosh and most coaches are going to go with a 3 year starter at QB over the Freshman.

If the 4th year starter is cleared to play, he will start. No way MacIntyre is going high risk to save his job by starting a freshman with zero snaps to his credit in the season opening neutral site rivalry game. Sefo is the safe choice. If things start to slide Mac will start to mix and match everything under the sun to right the ship before he gets the pink slip.
Walters for OC!!
Amirite?
Amirite?
I agree and it just baffles me. This close to the end of a pretty ****ty year, I don't see how you can look at next year and see anything significantly different. I really hope for some good recruiting news or it will be hard to get the kool aid flowing.

Careful @pcbuff, you can't agree with me without Darth critique. Jay MacIntyre played well against MWC and less talent like most of our team. It shows we haven't recruited to PAC 12 level. I would stil. rather that scholarship have ended up in a LB or OL like CU desperately needs this year. Still hoping Jay MacIntyre proves me wrong.
In retrospect, probably a good idea to get more dl or lb but it also may not have been an option. Our recruiting was that bad

Troy walters must have wanted him

I don't think J-Mac will ever get a fair, unbiased opinion from long time buff fans. The nepotism of the Hawk era that drove so many of us crazy runs deep.
With a new OC, maybe that will change.
On either side of the debate. I see a lot of lowered expectations for what constitutes success when it comes to him thus far in his career.
I haven't said that JMac has been successful in his time here. I am not satisfied with his contribution yet. To me this argument is not about JMac...it's about Walker.
It was a ridiculous statement to say that Walker is better than JMac at this point, and I stand by that. This is not because MacIntyre has proven to be good, but rather Walker has not proven a single thing other than the coaches don't trust him enough to put him on the field yet.
Calling Walker a potential bright spot while simultaneously denouncing MacIntyre was stupid and not based on any fact.

I think J Mac is a solid player. Think he will be a solid PR next year. I don't see him being more than a low end WR for us. Never did. Has nothing to do with Hawkins. It has to do with him being a last scholarship given in a weak class that lost two of its top recruits late in the process.

I don't believe that is what I was trying to say. Nice jump to conclusions. I was just saying I believe Walker is better. We don't know who will be and who is but with the number of snaps MacIntyre received 8 catches with majority being against Nicholls isn't wowing.
