zander is gonna step up.

[FKfootball 1,046]

Just a gut feeling. But I feel like this kid is going to find himself. Hes very confident.

[bleedhoosier 3,627]

I'm interested to see if the game slows down for him a bit after a shake down run last week. Hopefully his passes aren't all lagging behind like they were.

[FKfootball 1,046]

It was a timing thing. I think he throws well enough.

We won't win another game this year.

I saw most of the game.

The little I got to see of the game I saw he had either a hard time gripping the ball or just wasn't very accurate but I do hope it was just nerves and he comes out firing

Michigan State is a rough assignment for any QB, let alone a true frosh taking his first snaps ever.  I mean I think he looked awful last weekend too but now he has a bye week and the we play Michigan which is a much more manageable challenge.  Kind of hoping MSU just pounds the will to win out of them on Saturday. 

[HoosierReb01 7,511]

I presume that with two weeks to prepare, he'll be a bit more ready. I also suspect that the staff will tailor the offense more too him. I fear we'll see a tough next 6 weeks, but last Saturday had to have been the worst. It can only go up from here.

[MartintheMopMan 7,765]

I just hope he doesn't fumble. He was terrible at protecting the ball

State is going to pound UM. They fire Hoke. Rejuvenating a purpose to win and they proceed to pound us. It's the way IUFB luck tends to go.

Which I could like this more than once

[CampHoosier 3,697]

At no point in the game did he look comfortable. I hope he finds a comfort level in the pocket, but man does he like to get out in a hurry

[FKfootball 1,046]

Actually, Hoke getting fired would just cause more turmoil and uncertainty. They may actually rally to win for him if they play MSU close or heaven forbid, beat them!

Your right. He was panicking. But under the circumstances, I expected it.

Side note - I talked to a team student manager today. He said Zander throws well in practice. He's bummed with season. Wishes Roberson was s around as do the players. Also expects decommit from Stevens.

A de-commitment from Stevens would be devastating to the team and to Wilson's future here.

Not really. There are plenty of QBs out there. If a kid is too good for IU, let him go. We will survive.

Haven't we already seen the issue with not having enough good QBs? I think the point he is also making is a decommit from a solid prospect like Stevens would just be a bad sign of possible things to come if Wilson doesn't start producing results

[Naturalhoosier 15,353]

A Stephens decommit might not be the final blow for Wilson but I think it would be a hard tug on the proverbial noose.

[FKfootball 1,046]

The fact that kids are wavering is scary. It makes u wonder if Wilsons seat is hotter than we thought.
