Wonder who will come out on top. It would be cool to see Drube emerge

I agree. His familiarity with the offense should give him a leg up.

While I understand the home grown player sentiment, what would be really cool is if whoever comes out on top is really good and whoever is the number two is pretty good as well.
It won’t matter how good either QB is if they are surrounded by glaring weaknesses and are poorly coached. The head guy better have put his best foot forward in resolving the absolute subpar mediocrity of scoring points with substantially obvious results.
Unfortunately, I am engrained with the fear Wyoming football will never play offense in a way that wins meaningful games after years of being at 100th or lower of the NCAA’s in total offense.
Spring ball may influence plans to attend any game(s) in person.
This O is not overly complicated so any QB could come in and be ok. The three guy competing all have legs so that will help them.
Something that can help the QB is the OL to finally play well. They have been god awful

Its a new offensive coordinator so how do you know the O is not overly complicated?
I live 10 minutes from W&M and follow them.

Do we think our O coordinators were just inept or have we had a shortage of talent at QB? I'm sure some things are the coordinator but we scored when Josh was QB and offense looked more competent with Peasely as QB. Vigen and Polasek move on and look like they can run a team. I'd make an argument that we didn't have QBs who could see the field and throw the ball where it needed to go.
What if it was all of it.

Vigen has shown he plays offense. The first thing he did at MSU was focus on getting a QB when he became the head coach and has not quit playing offense since.
Polasek has not turned NDSU into 3 plays and a punt try.
They simply did what the boss wanted and for the most part the program significantly lacked QB’s that were a legitimate threat to throw the ball. I doubt we would have recruited a QB as good as Peasley if USU hadn’t benched him in their pursuit of the MWC title. That was during the “national” search post by Bohl when Bohl’s first QB recruit was the #17 wannabe. Bohl also didn’t seem to feel the need to recruit a WR that anyone’s grandma couldn’t cover.
I will go with the QB position lacked significantly in the quality needed to pursue the conference title when the program was actually strong enough to compete. It has continued the past 2 years. Maybe it changes this season?
