I like the kid and want him to succeed. I've tried to find any info on how he is doing in spring practice, but there's very little information about their practices. Anyone seen anything about how he is doing? Their spring game is Friday.
Will Rogers
- Thread starter greenbean.sixpack
- Start date
I appreciate what he gave to the program for 4 years. But I just can’t bring myself to care about him at another school.
For Will to win big games, he needs an elite OL. During Leach's last two years there were vast differences in outcomes depending on whether we were playing an above avg-elite SEC defense vs a below avg one. When he had time he was awesome with accuracy, timing patterns, throwing darts into coverage and TD/INT ratio.
But I've never seen a QB so physically inept when the pocket collapses fast. No ability to extend plays when things break down. Like I said a few years back with a different username: *watching Will get sacked resembled a pack of lions pouncing on an injured baby wildabeast ".
Combine that with an acute case of fumbleitus and you've got something looking like a calf liver flopping to the ground instead of a football.

If you watched any Wisconsin games, Locke was really good for a freshman. Locke or Parson would have been amongst the best air raid qbs Leach had.
I hope he succeeds- I don’t think anyone on here or associated with MSU wants him to fail.
That being said, I’d be surprised if he has a good season. If he starts more than half the year, it would be a huge success.
I'm interested in how he does in the spring game. Hopefully he preforms well. He was put into a bad situation when Leach died, but did the best he could, kept a good attitude and never trashed anyone with the program, in spite of the students booing him during a few games and chanting, "we want Mike."
I hate it ended that way for him. If that idiot Arnett had just kept the staff together one more year...
Here's a pretty good break down of UW's new offense:
Breaking Down Fisch & Carroll’s Offense
Basically, UW fans need to realize Rogers is one-year band aid until they can the type of players Jed Fisch really wants.
Yeah and he’s a band-aid at best. I’d be surprised if he’s the starter at the end of the season. Washington’s schedule is not a cakewalk this year.
I hope that Will has a great year. I never understood the Will hate. I’m not saying he was the best qb but the personal hate I don’t get. He played to best of his ability. I was always proud of how he represented MSU. He was a good fit for Leach’s offense. He wasn’t a good fit for Barbay’s offense but who was.
The haters just never seemed to understand that despite his limitations, he was always our best option at QB. Well, they understood when we put a backup in, but they forgot it quickly after.
The issue was never Will. The issue was for 4 years our recruiting was so inept we couldn’t put a more talented QB on the field.
Will wasnt the problem last year. He lead an average team to 9-4 the year before. The 180 degree change on offense was a bad plan. 6-6 last year would have been a tremendous success. But unfortunately, for State to get a fresh start, last season had to happen because we had a new AD and a very Weak administration!
"Our Lads" depth charts are worthless. No input whatsoever from insiders, coaches, etc.

You took it wrong. He's a good coach and will have him ready. He coaches like an NFL coach. Very Professional.

That's more than 3 months old. They don't even know if Will is on the team at that point.
You are absolutely correct. There were some on here hoping he failed at State so they could say, " See, I told y'all so."
Houston ain’t exactly the big time like SEC football is. But if he doesn’t produce a lot better than he did last fall, he’ll be looking for a job again in December.
