Towles will be drafted after he finishes his UK career. Has the prototypical size. I roll with Towles but I want to see Drew play as well

I like watching Pat play but I want UK to be respectable. If that's Pat, great but if Drew gives them a better chance I'll be cheering for him. Just win baby!

i would take Towles all day long he has already won a big game and almost upset Florida something UK qbs has never done.

 

That's the thing he almost beat Florida, he didn't beat Florida and a bad Florida team at that. So even with a bad Florida team UK still didn't win. Your point would hold more water if they were playing horseshoes when being close actually gets you something.

Maybe but Towles has to be more concistent. If he was more consistent hr probably wouldn't even be in a fight still for the qb spot.

He really had the chance to cement the QB1 slot last year but did not.

 

His lack of consistency is his biggest issue. His intermediate game per Stoops is not as good as Drew's.

 

The first couple of games will be interesting.

 

(And I agree that PT will get a shot in an NFL camp)

Towles had 303 yards rushing 6 tds and 225/393 57% 2718 yards 14 tds 9 ints. Pretty good numbers as a first year starting.

Add in the off field issues and I wouldn't let Barker touch the field.

I know Jameis Winston...he is a good friend of mine...and you, Drew Barker are now Jameis Winston...

 

Winston proved he could win games before he got in trouble. Barker has yet to prove anything.

I maybe wrong, but wasn't Winston accused of rape before he ever played a down for Florida State?

I think that was during the season.

Either way not guilty.

Then add in his little comments he said in the middle of campus that got him in trouble after that really showed his maturity. His off field stuff and even accusations were far worst. Which goes to show that these colleges are going to play who they think gives them the best chance. And as much as you hate it, apparently the UK coaches seem to think Barker may give them as good of a chance if not a better chance and is wanting to possibly give him a chance to show it during the game.

Stoops says that Towles has the “leg up” going into fall camp. “He’ll take the first snaps with the ones … competition is important to us."
