5 best SEC quarterbacks since 1980

[78]

Here, I’ll try again and post what I did a few minutes ago. You’re quite slow on the uptake but maybe you’ll get it on the second try.

Umm, nearly every college coach in the country wanted Danny to sign with their school because they thought he was going to be an incredible college quarterback...which turned out to be the case.

What’s changed, Clark? They thought. So what? You think. That’s your opinion. I’m supposed to be moved by that?

Come back to me when you have something better to offer than what everyone thought of Danny Wuerffel coming out of high school. It’s irrelevant to the conversation. Until then you’re simply playing to your audience.

The thread is about the 5 best QBs.
Please tell me that you have a caregiver that watches over you so that you don't turn into a silver alert.

Gawd, you’re dumb. Read the second part of what I wrote. It’s not just that college coaches thought he’d be a great QB, it’s also the fact that he indeed turned out to be a GREAT QB!!! He re-wrote the record books by the time he graduated. It’s tough to make a strong argument that he was a system QB when nearly every college coach wanted him...but somehow you continue to try.

His status coming out of HS in the eyes of most every major D-1 head coach has nothing to do with my position that he’s in the top 5 in the SEC, it’s strictly to counter your system QB position. He’s top 5 based off his college production. For a guy biatching about me contorting the argument you have a funny way of contorting the argument.

I dunno, maybe you’re too slow to even realize it.

Did I say he wasn’t a great college quarterback? Posts #14 and 21. You’re so entrenched in your idiotic and displaced narrative that you’ve completely overlooked what I’ve written in your thread.

HE WAS GREAT. Top 5 worthy? I disagree. Hello?

Jeeeez.

You’re trying to attribute to me an argument I never made. His status coming out of HS in the eyes of most every major D-1 head coach has nothing to do with my position that he’s in the top 5 in the SEC, it’s strictly to counter your system QB position. He’s top 5 based off his college production. For a guy biatching about me contorting the argument you have a funny way of contorting the argument.

You’ve rambled on with so much nonsense you can’t even keep your B.S. straight in your own head.

Here you go. But you can move the goal posts all you want.

Umm, nearly every college coach in the country wanted Danny to sign with their school because they thought he was going to be an incredible college quarterback...which turned out to be the case. I’d say that’s more evidence supporting my position than any evidence you have supporting yours.

Yeah, I wrote that a few posts AFTER and in response to you alluding to him being a system QB. Go back and read the 2nd page of this post. It’s quite clear what I was referring to.

But yeah, keep contorting or moving the goal posts.

I know what I wrote. I said he was a great quarterback and was overshadowed by Spurrier. I stand by that. I think he wouldn’t have come close to the goals he reached without Spurrier. Was I trying to dis him? No. Was I attempting to be honest with history? IMO, I was.

Now if you could just comprehend what others wrote and learn to understand context you’d be doing okay.

Context? That’s highly ironic in this thread coming from you. I understood what you meant every step of the way, through all of your missteps. You were theatrically butthurt that I even suggested he might not belong in your whatever top 5.

You’ll get over it.

Just when I think you can’t same anything dumber than what you’ve already said, you say “hold my beer” and outdo yourself.

Obviously you didn’t understand what I was saying. Had you, you wouldn’t have posted this (see below)...because you really thought I was using his high school accolades and recruiting rankings to justify him being in the top 5 in college. It’s so obvious you did this that even Stevie Wonder can see it.

As far as me being butthurt, I’m not in the least. I’m just amazed you could be so dumb to think that I believe a high school player’s recruiting rank and high school accolades are what should be used when giving a final grade for their college career...and also that you think that I feel pro stats should be used to determine greatness in college.

Danny's accomplishments were because Spurrier coached him and he played in Spurrier's system. All the other QBs required no coaching and would be successful no matter what system the played in.

DW = easily top 3 SEC QB, maybe #1. Clutch, leader, toughest SOB I’ve ever seen, was able to deal with SOS’s quick hook, introduced offense to the SEC and one of hell of a rep for Florida off the field. IMO the most underrated Gator of all time.

By gollie Threat, I think you’re right. Pretty much every college head coach, collectively using many different systems all wanted him and thought he’d succeed in many different systems, but yeah ‘78 will have us believe it was the system. Hey, maybe ‘78 can weigh in on if Cam would have been as successful in college in a traditional drop back passing system rather than in Gus Malzahn’s system.

I'd put DW solidly into the top 5....probably top 3

Would cam newton have been the same qb with mike leach? Or Doug Nussmeier? How come spurrier never had as much success with other qb's in his 20 plus years as a HC? Wuerffel being a product of the system argument just doesn't hold any weight.

 

[ThreatMatrix]

This is almost as good as when 78 insisted that UCF belonged in the SEC.

 

[T REX]

Danny is the best pro style QB of the last 30 years. Recency bias is going to call for these RPO qbs to be included. The game has evolved and so has the QB position so I partially understand. Danny was damn special. Just a small note though...Terry Dean was QB for one of those SEC titles.

well reading this thread was 10 minutes of my life ill never get back

Best SEC QB ever maybe. Certainly best since 1980.
