I don't think I contradicted myself nor do I think you're a jerk Jon :)

Not throwing to Purify is much more of a BC issue than an SK issue.  Purify
was only in the game barely 50% of the time for the first 7-8 games.  Wether
that was punishment or bad scheme....

I don't disagree.  My only beef with Ganz is he's clearly not as good of a
passer.  I like his energy and his mobility, but as far as a passer, he's
not as good as Keller.  In MY opinion (not worth the paper this email is
written on) a health Keller is better than Ganz.  I like the kid, but Keller
completed almost 65% of his passes WHILE his receivers were dropping some
pretty easy catches.  I realize that's going to happen, but it was excessive
this year.

Again, opinions are like ______ and we've all got one :)  Mine might be the
worst, but the only think the KU game did was reassure me that Keller was
the better QB.  

I think maybe we'll just have to agree to disagree on this one Jon ol' buddy
:)
