played with a bad limp the seconde half of the season. I agree with you, Drink is very reluctant to change starters, and seems to believe MU can win most games if present QB doesn't turn the ball over. But maybe the bowl game showed him a change is necessary in order to make progress. He stated more than once the OL wasn't effective and that throwing a true freshman out there to get beat up wouldn't be wise.

I don't think he wants to get him hurt this year with the - Uncle John MU

- 12/27 10:08:05

I still think that's premature(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 12/27 10:04:48

the job as a P5 HC has became way too much - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 12/27 10:15:30

Took you a year to figure that out, huh? - zoomer 99 - 12/27 10:30:31

if he needed that game as a wake up - SwampTiger MU - 12/27 09:50:25

I'm sure he was leaning that way regardless - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 12/27 12:54:52

cook's limitations were clear even when the offense was - SwampTiger MU - 12/27 13:25:24

agree. AT first I thought he was intelligent but - SabertoothTiger MU - 12/27 12:39:53

He had many chances to at least play Horn - meatiger MU - 12/27 09:49:36

this. Drink isn't being very truthful to anyone - SabertoothTiger MU - 12/27 12:35:32

Hamdan leaving appeared to have a bigger impact - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 12/27 09:24:03

Exactly. Try something different - BigDave MU - 12/27 09:32:09

Playing not to lose. This is why I think Drink will - SabertoothTiger MU - 12/27 12:43:32
