Um, coach wanted to pull Wilbert two games ago.
The rest of the staff convinced him not to.
Yep, I heard this too. I wonder why the whole team believes in him? I truly dont know the answer.

He's looked good in spurts… and in the first few games even when the offense wasn't moving forward he wasn't throwing many interceptions, he was throwing the ball away rather than getting the sack, etc.
I think the team just wants one guy to stick so they can build a relationship with him. Part of the reason why we were so successful with Rusty is because he and Gent/Harmon had such good chemistry. They knew where Rusty was going to put the ball and could make the necessary adjustments.
Four QBs now means four styles.

My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

Kooi completed 6 of 9 attempts for 70yrds, 1 TD, 0 INTs against NORTH TEXAS.
How can anyone still think that Wilbert is better than Kooi?
Even if Kooi's performance against NTwas a fluke, it can't possibly be worse than Wilbert's 88.8 passer rating.
At 0-5, Kooi should at least get the start for the 1st 1/2 against WKU. If he blows, put another QB in. It's not like we're playing for a title this season and experience matters.

I cant believe that Wilbert was still an option to start next game. He has had an horrendous season, its like the coaches are rubbing salt in our wounds by keeping him in. Maybe Kooi has a bad attitude, then ditch him after the season but right now we need to salvage what we have left.
Agreed. Wilbert, while he may be a nice kid is not a DI QB…no way and no how.
One of the other 3 have to be more effective. Or at least excite us with some new way of throwing pick 6's.

I hope coach decides to give #10 some reps if it's a blowout against WKU.
