@kjayhawks I expect a lot out of these two, but i am really trying to temper those expectations. Neither player matters if a QB can't get anyone the ball.

@Kcmatt7 We have 3 QB's that fit the Air Raid. The down side of Stanley winning the job is that he doesn't have a big arm so the vertical passing game won't be as effective as it could be if Bender or Starks win the job.

@Texas-Hawk-10

I am rooting for Starks to win the job. He could get the program really going if he is as good on the field as his athleticism and hype suggests.

@Texas-Hawk-10 I know we have better QBs. But that isn't saying much.

@Kcmatt7

Yep! Probably the worst QB situation in major CFB last year...

@BShark Baylor's was worse. They were playing a RB as QB at the end of the year because they ran out of QB's by the end of the season.

@Kcmatt7 3 guys pushing each other is only going to make them all better. Returning a young OLine mostly in tact while adding Baldwin is going to give KU a much improved OLine. Charlot gives KU a legit 3rd weapon so teams can't run cover 2 all day to slow down Sims and Quiv. This is the year we see the offense begin to take significant steps forward.

I'm not quite ready to call for a bowl bid yet, I think that's next year, but I think KU getting bowl eligible this year is more likely than only winning 1 or 2 games is as well. I think KU wins 4 or 5 this year.
