I'd still take Thompson any day. He has the intangibles Litton didn't. And not all of them have to do with on field performance. We'll be fine at QB.
Not to be mean spirited, but what do you base that on? None of us have witness Thomson as a member of this team or Wagner. Saying he has intangibles that Litton doesn't is spoken purely out of bias.
This board is gonna be loads of fun when Thomson isn't holding the Heisman and a 1st Rd draft pick.
Based on what we know of this kids the expectations are not warranted.
I am rooting for him, but like always we've bought into those that were selling him and crowned him savior.
How many times do we need to do this before we learn better?
He played in a crap league and has a busted up throwing shoulder.
Oh he speaks well. Oh he handles himself on the sidelines like a true pro.
Remember when everyone went crazy head over hills when Eddie Sullivan took players to the cemetery when he first got here. Articles were written and so many said, "there's something about this kid. He just gets it."
This Morrell kid he comes from a system just like we run he's a stud.
I remember so many saying Litton was going oro after three seasons.
Remember how Xavier Gaines was a sure thing?
Gunner Holcomb was so good too.
I thought Kai Locksley was gonna save us.
I just wish we could all pump the brakes on these kids before we actually see them in a real game.
I know I'm tired of buying in at face value and being let down.
