Or, 1) BB2 is Hirsch's momma 2) BB2 is Hirsch's girlfriend 3) BB2 is the strange quiet kid who met Hirsch at church camp and still sleeps with his picture under his pillow.
sorta like BCS and Clark Evans

Yep i have a relationship with Hirschman. You guys have already decided that Connor Wood should be the starter. The guy still hasn't played one College game, hasn't practiced with the first team, and you say i have a relationship with Hirschman.
Oh please.
:lol::lol::lol::lol:

One thing i hate the most is hype, untill he proves it in September, this is all hype. Highly rated coming out of HS, means nothing to me.
Fify. dude you are _ _ _ _
Since we have basically no quarterback with experience, then we are going to have ****** quarterback play regardless of who plays.

I think we know someone who would like to beat Hirsch's wood.:nod::wow::rofl:
Dude, if I cared enough I would look up the posts from last season when I called you Hirschman's girlfriend. That probably crossed the line. You've been on this streak for a long time, but never cite any support for your love for the Hirsch. AND, guess what, Hirschman hasn't played a college game either.
Hey he's played like half a quarter :lol:
He has. He just really stunk at it when he did.
My fault. My brain selectively eliminated that mess against ASU.

We have 3 QBs on the roster that will be competing in the spring, none of which have played a single snap at the college level.
1 was a blue chip prospect that had multiple BCS offers out of HS, chose to transfer to CU over an offer from LSU, and was identified by the head coach as being part of a two-man race heading into the spring.
1 was the 70th rated QB out of HS and according to his HS coach had other D1 offers that were not reported
1 is a walkon that no one had heard of before last spring and was 3rd on the depth chart less than a week ago
Who do you think most fans would expect to be the front runner at this point?
Now I'm just angry.

Welcome back
Certainly the best QB recruit/transfer, but we have no idea if he is the best QB. I, for one, chose to believe Wood will be one of the better QBs we've had in a while, but I'd like to see him take the field a few times first.
When it is all said an done Wood will have been the best QB we've had since Kordell. This hesitation with players kills me. Look at the strides Hansen made under Rip, Wood has a much better skill set and it will show immediately.
Always a fair assessment with QBs. Some guys can look all-world in practice and fold under the pressure.
I think Wood is going to be a good one though.

Welcome back
I hope and choose to believe exactly what you wrote here. But I'm not putting those kind of lofty expectations on Wood, considering we haven't even seem him take a snap. Furthermore he does not have the same caliber offensive line Kordell and Koy had.
No but by all reports he is a very dedicated worker with a good grasp of the offense and a smart player.
Those traits are nice, but you just described Cody Hawkins.
Wood's tangible traits (size, athleticism, arm strength) will go a long way in determining his success at CU.
Yup yup. I'm excited about his potential, but right now, that is all it is.
The psyche around QBs in college is always really funny. The guy who has never seen the field is always the savior... right up until he sees the field. Then the fans start talking about the guy who is sitting on the bench or the practice squad or the next one coming out of high school. I am not trying to knock Woods or Hirschman or anybody else, I just find it amusing that you see this often.
As far as the situation for the Buffs goes. I hope Hirschman heals well and I hope that whoever ends up being the starter gets there because he's clearly the person who deserves to lead the Buffs. I'd like to end the days where we're hoping somebody steps up or it feels like we're settling for the best that we've got.

Until you look at his tangibles which I think are very good compared to what we've seen, which I guess could be setting the bar low.
I love Wood's ability. To me, what we need to find out is if he has "it". Reports indicate that he does, but we just won't know until the bullets are flying. For the first time in a long time, at least the tangibles are there.
