The myth of “Good Montez.”

[SerenityBuff]

There’s been discussion on this board about “good” Montez and “bad” Montez and week in and out hoping we get the good version. The problem with that is, I don’t think “Good Montez“ actually exists. How many times has he put together a performance, from start to finish, that people would consider good? 2016 Oregon? ASU this year? Hardly enough to consider it a pattern of consistently good play. More often, we get wildly inconsistent play or awful games like tonight. It’s painfully obvious that he is a below average college QB.

Interesting take, and statistics and W/L give that a lot of credence.

Yep, him and consistent shouldn't collide in the same sentence. Actually, I take that back, but not for good reasons.

He’s struck me as immature ever since he started. I want a icy calm serious look on my QBs face. Like Manny Wilkins, Adrian Martinez, etc. I get nervous when we play a team with a QB with that look. He’s gotten more mature, but not commensurate with his rank.

And failing that, I’ll take a guy with a little emotion to his play, IF there’s passion and determination behind it. Like Sefo. I just get the impression Monty thinks he’s better than he is, and just really loves being the starting QB at a big D1 program, and his opinion of himself is validated by the fact that apparently he’s done enough to get that.

Adrian Martinez?

Him being a starter is wholly a reflection of horrible recruiting by CU staff. Wish Tucker has made getting a grad transfer QB his first priority. Totally could have made a bowl game with a competent QB. And it’s obvious we don’t have one on the roster at any level.

I've have had enough of Montez. I want to see the other guys, Lytle and Stenstrom, get time and development on the field. I would be pleased to see Montez ride the bench from here out.
