Thats exactly what i said on another board, the sshh is pretty mild, theyre lucky he didnt throw up dbl kickstands Stone Cold style
I'm not for booing players but this is the first time he has run the ball with some toughness . His last 2 games he showed very little heart ,toughness or leadership .If he had played this way all year he wouldn't have been criticized or booed . This players against the fans (that make all this possible )has been fostered by Jeremy Foley and every failing coach since spurrier .Fans who pay their hard earned money and scream and yell encouragement have been called " noise in the system .The average salaried fan have been priced out of going to the game while UAA just gave Myschump his last check for over 750,000 . Thank god Mullen and Stricklin have shown they appreciate the fans and realize this all goes away without their support

While I agree it was an immature and pointless thing to do the fact that a bunch of 40-60 year old grown men are butt hurt by this speaks for itself.
No one is butt hurt ! What the hell does that mean anyway . Just giving opinions on what the adults not a kid did after scoring

Fans can say anything they want about the 20 yr old but fck him if he comes back. You know he heard and saw TONS of "felipe you suck" the last two weeks. So today he has HIS gfy moment. Its funny to me. He played well. Ran well and passed well when it really mattered. What ****ing AMAZES me is we get a BIG win today on the way to 9 or even 10 wins this year and we are trashing OUR own QB. Call me not surprised in the "world" we live in now.
What do you expect when he tells his own fans "**** you " if he had played with this effort and heart all year he wouldn't have been criticized or booed but this is the first game he has done so .

Seven year old goes to dentist. His father is sitting there encouraging him. "You're so brave, Timmy!"

In busts some dude in a wife beater and American flag hat. "But not as brave as the TROOPS!!!!"

Your argument is as bad as Kellen Winslow calling himself a soldier. :rolleyes3:

That's HOF stuff right there.....


:doh:

If you guys had your eyes open, you saw a hesitant, tepid, barely willing runner become someone who wanted the ball. Did he "put the team on his shoulders"? He did in the sense that he wanted the ball and he got it and delivered when we most needed a fourth down TD while trailing. Did he deserve the booing? Yes. Was he entitled to give it back when he succeeded? Yes he was. The "fans" can stick a thumb up their collective derriere.
Will he now have a better mental grasp of the game? No. Will his passing be more accurate? Probably not. But will he be a better QB? Yes he will.
And what can UF fans do? Carp and complain. Hmmmm. Maybe all UF fans are millenials.
Where has that toughness and heart been all year ? It's the first game he put it all out there he has let his team down all year .im glad he finally decided to play hard but he's earned the criticism he has received .im not for booing student athletes but what perine and franks did was stupid and counter productive . Without the fans their would be no college football in front of 90,000 no free education no free room and board or free tutors or free medical care . He needs to grow up and appreciate the opportunity fans have provided for him by supporting the sport he loves to play .

Idaho doesn’t have fans. They have potato farmers who accidentally wander into the stadium and sit down to watch.
Their stadium is like a big box with a few seats..........Looks like a big old gymnasium with a football field in the middle.

This kid was thrown out there before he was ready last year with little to no coaching from Mac n Co, didnt have time to watch in learn and this year, new hc and scheme he is thrown out there again to do what he can do while learning on the fly trying to carry a team. And youre saying weeks of fans taunting and booing him that he isnt allowed to respond? Welcome to the world that social media and chatrooms have created, ladies n gents. A bunch of keyboard toughguys who say what they want in their safespaces without any repercussions, armed with their block button for anyone who doesnt share their views but they get face to face and someone they talk **** to snaps back and tells them to sit down and stfu and they melt like snowflakes. If fans were being supportive and not being *******s, then he wouldnt have hurt their feelings by putting a finger up to his lips. The entitlement among our fanbase is amazing.

Ive supported him all season long because I understand his circumstance. I support him even more now that he stood up for himself with the full support of his teammates.

Daryl fcknnn nails it. Franks has not been tough? You play against LSU and UGA and take the shots he did and say he aint tough. Or the summer wkouts we all got wet over or the practices this team did. I played HS ball for an old school guy. Games were easy. Practice ran off most of the guys. GTFO

I’d say the wimpy assf*cks booing a college kid for not playing a sport to their standards are the snowflakes.


I think that's backass backwards........ Bet you like the idea of participation trophies,

Kid shouldve been carrying a clipboard last year, not the team. Another gift from Mac

Maybe he should have gone to FIT instead of a Power 5 School if he wasn't ready for the Bright Lights!

Oh please. Tua is better than Hurts in every way and Saban still brought him along slowly before making him the starter.
