I think Hill is needed for the CCG. I would think unless Hill is 100%, the coaches would start Shawn against Baylor. Also - even IF Hill is feeling better, I would assume they would use him sparingly as to not risk losing him for the CCG.

I don't know. Did you support the OP's first comment? It was pretty trollish.

Actually I agreed with a lot of it. There's an undertone of a swipe at KH I didn't care for. I would temper the enthusiasm a bit but I agreed for the most part. I'm optimistic about SRs future as our QB.

I'm not sure we'd beat Joshua HS by 40+ with Tom Brady at QB unless the D scored 14 by itself. Just not our thing anymore.

I completely disagree. Hill is timid and doesn't look for open receivers down field.... he just throws to spots where receivers are supposed to be.
Robinson was a much more aggressive runner and he showed absolutely no fear in throwing the ball down the field.
Hill is not the answer. Even with freshman mistakes, Robinson can beat Oklahoma if we run the ball downhill!!!

We just beat kansas by 43 and theyre better than Joshua.
Kansas is my second favorite team now after that shade on Baker.

I know you like to talk about running the ball so maybe that's your forte. Hill does look for open receivers when he has time. Is he the best at it? No, but it's not like he doesn't try. Also, the larger attribute that holds him back is the exact opposite of what you describe. Instead of throwing receivers open by throwing to a spot, too many of his throws are late when he waits for more separation which often leads to throws behind the receiver and/or allows a defender to adjust.

They are marginally better than Joshua but it did take a KT TD punt return to get over 40 against KU. The point is that we haven’t shown the desire for the pace and playcalling that would start beating real teams by 40+ nor do I think we would have done so with KH operating the offense in Lubbock. And I’m not complaining. We have decided on an identity and strategy and it’s work quite well so far.

Your insecurity is running pretty high as well and your sarcasm detector is defective. But you are correct that dropped passes are one of the factors that do tend to keep our offensive production down and I’m not sure why anyone could reasonably have expected that to change against Tech. But I’m glad some people think we’d have hung a 40+ win on Tech with KH at QB. I just am not one of them. I do think we would have won comfortably.
How so?

It's still amazing to me that of all teams to do it, it was KANSAS! Good for them!
Whether SR or KH starts these last couple of games, I hope we continue to throw a lot of deep passes. Whether they are completed or not, I think it just loosens up the defense and gets them back on their heels a bit. SR throws a very pretty deep ball but Kenny can make all those throws Shawn was making too, he just has to let them fly. It’s not like SR was throwing 60 yard lasers, he was just throwing them up out in front and letting the receivers try and make a play. The worst thing can happen is they pick it off and it’s like a punt.

offensive play calling was conservative and designed to not lose the game as it should have been with a first time starter. Surprised SRob go so many 20+ yd attempts with the wind as crazy as it was. I thought his throws were good considering the wind. Willing to stand in the pocket and already looking off safeties to prevent double coverage on some throws. A couple of throws off the back foot and bad ball security but with his willingness to take a hit, that can be fixed before next year. Throws a great ball when stepping into the pass though. Kenny's playbook is much larger and ability to read the D much better so you have to let him start if healthy... but man... SRob has to get a couple of series just because of raw ability to make plays.
