If Stoudt starts against USC, we lose

Plain and simple. Pump all the Cole sunshine you want but it won't make him a better quarterback. Start Nick or figure out another option. Cole does not give this team their best opportunity to win. It would be smarter to kick field goals and punt on first down. I want to be proven wrong.
Even so, I will not boo Cole, and I think anyone that boos him is a big piece of ####. If anything, I will be cheering loudly for a not-so-good quarterback that still managed to get us 4 consecutive ACC wins.
Thank you Cole! I may not agree with the decision to start you, but god ###### I respect you.
GO TIGERS!

I agree, and I wonder if the coaches calling out people for booing are really just trying to sidestep the real noise, which is displeasure with the decision to leave him in. It's wrong to boo a player - period - but what I've heard, including this past weekend in Atlanta, is people frustrated with Morris for A) not having a shorter leash on the QB and B) calling plays that make no sense. GT fans were mocking us and thanking Morris for calling the same bubble screen from the same formation all year. It was only a matter of time before there were some pick sixes.
So, I will never boo a player, and I will rarely shout out in frustration over play calling, but good lord what are we doing?! I hope all three QBs get plenty of time this week while Watson rests, and I really hope we can beat the dirt peckers.

Funny, so many of us were concerned Morris might jump ship for a HC job. Now, more than a few seem to fear we may be stuck with him.
This season stinks. At this point it matters little to me what becomes of what is left except for the impact it may have on recruiting. But. Morris, even though he seems to have no answers for this seasons myriad of problems sure figured out how to help dial in some major wins. Because of his history, I'm not ready to see him tossed and an objective person has to view this season as an aberration. If this proves to become a trend, we might get upset, but it is too early for this.
As for Stoudt, he screwed up pretty thoroughly last week - I'd bet he knew this before we did and wishes like hell he could find a rock to crawl under. Don't know how the guy could be in the system for four years and be no more prepared than he appears.

The preparedness is the hardest thing to get past.

That is coaching, 100%. It's also the coaches job to get him ready for the next game, but I'm not sure that Stoudt can recover from that. The coaches let him down with the play calling.
That said, if Schuessler can't come in and play, we shouldn't have put him on scholarship. Let the kid have a shot.

If the 3rd or 4th string guy starts we also lose.

Let's hope Watson heals fast. While I don't think Cole is the man, in our situation,he's what we got. One backup QB was so far down the depth chart at Mississippi State he left and walked on at Clemson. The other is a graduate student that never saw the field for 4 years at Stanford. Until DW heals that's it and people continually whining like either QB would be capable of doing the job when they can't just proves your ignorance and agenda.

So we should assume Cole's backups can't get it done?

Remember when Dabo told us Cole was ahead of DW on the depth chart. We should just assume Dabo is right now and play Cole. No thanks. I'd rather we take a chance.

THe only reason Cole was ahead of DW on the deptrh chart

was his broken collar bone that took him out of spring ball. Too bad some can't see the forest for the trees.

Louisville shows up, Clemson will win regardless who is at QB.
Louisville is a better team than SCar.

Helll, at this point every team we have played minus SC ST and Wake are better than Sakerlina. We will beat them if DRad has to quarterback.
