If we want to sniff a bowl game we can't have Johnson as the QB. I hate to waste the redshirt but it's desperation time.

No doubt! Johnson is beyond bad and you can't hide it with the wildcat forever! He just sucks!

You're assuming he's any better. I have to believe if he was anything at all they would be trying him.

I can't imagine he is any worse throwing. Yeah he may not be able to scramble like Johnson, but hell Johnson isn't doing that either.

You either try one of the other qbs or put a true athlete at qb and run a true option attack

If Gunnar Hoak is the QB of this team in five years, then this program will have made absolutely zero progress. So why care about burning a redshirt? Hopefully by the time it would even matter we will have improved the talent level to the point that we won't have to worry about it. I'm concerned about NOW; and clearly Stephen Johnson is not the answer.

I agree....Coach Stoops' job is on the line....Coach Stoops would be playing Hoak if he was any better at this point.

This position has been managed terribly the last few years.

This coaching staff is so ultra conservative...Hoak may be better but they're too chicken you know what to put him in.

this^^^^^ Like I said. If we want to sniff a bowl game Johnson can't be the QB.

No we aren't assuming anything. He probably won't do any better but you are at the point where there is no reason to come out of the lockeroom at half if you don't try something. We are basically dominating MSU at ever position but QB. And their QB sucks but they are still destroying us enough at that spot that a win is basically impossible.

Ok sorry WR or DB, may not be able to catch either

How about just warm the bench? Who the hell recruits a QB out of Junior College to come play db or wideout? He'd probably be even worse at those positions.

Even the wide open receiver the throw was bad. Short and wobbly.

I STEP FORWARD 3 STEPS BACK. I GIVE HIM CREDIT FOR SOME GOOS THROWS IN THE 2ND HALF, BUT THATS A KILLER
