Not sure how they get from his last 4 games and having a monster season? There is certainly no guarantee of that from his throwing problems of last year. Dynamic running, no problem, but throwing the ball is a question mark until DK proves otherwise.
Miami is also expected to have a tremendous defense this year which is something king never had under applewhite or Dana. He made a mistake here and we were down by 7. Make another and we are down by 14. Play perfect and we are winning. Play okay and he looks like garbage.
He should be stout on that Miami team. I certainly hope he is.
I wish the kid the best of luck. He did what he felt was best for him at the time. It is easy for some of us to be critical of King, but it is not our life and future that is at stake, it is his. If one of the Miami games in on local TV I will probably try to catch some of it.
Yeah I always try and keep this perspective, and sometimes it’s hard because like a lot of us we’re all in for the University of Houston Cougars, so when a player like King makes a decision he believes is in his best interest to our detriment it’s really easy to really drag him.
So I have to remind myself, that coaches make decisions they think are best for themselves, co-workers, and so do I. It’s the real world everyone had to make decisions that the best for themselves, relying on an organization to do it is a great way to end up on your backside with very little to show for it.
My only problem with King’s transfering was his timing and continued claims he was returning. Had he been up front withDana, maybe he would have had a chance to bring in a quality transfer to either back up Tune or compete with him. He left us pretty thin at QB and now keeping Tune healthy is paramount.
I wish King the best. What a talent he is under the right offense. Just remember how good he was under Applewhite. We better hope our o line is good this year or Tune won’t have much success since he ain 't the runner King or Ward were. Tune still needs to proof he can stay healthy.
