lots on here that AT BEST, DJ was going to only sporadically be good / maybe serviceable.
So why not “take our lumps with young & inexperienced” early / on our terms rather than deal with what we knew wasn’t going to be around / not helping us build on the future - forced on someone else’s terms.
Hindsight - “take our lumps” 3 games earlier and let DJ declare for the portal in October.
At least I THINK that might be some of the discontent. I know it is with me.

DJ was never declaring for the portal until after

the season after he'd played in 4 games. So when were you benching him for good? ND? After he'd won 14 straight as the starter? You realize only DW and TL had ever done that. Have you read the team's responses to his transfer?
It was never as simple as mere performance.

Give CK the reigns earlier at the domers. See what happens

in 4 or 5 series ….. clearly that was gonna be a “have-not” night for DJU.
Give CK a shot prior to starting at the 8 with the domers ears pinned back.
What makes you think DJ wouldn’t bolt after not starting the game after the domer game ??
And if he didn’t - great. Possibly serviceable backup if CK got hurt or rattled badly.

Because he was committed to this team

the guy had warts as a player, but is anyone doubting his commitment to this team?
Season is over now. Barring an injury to Cade in the OB he's never playing again here if he stayed now. I think he wanted to make the playoffs like everyone else, dont you? That wasn't off the table until the last fumble against USuC

DJ decided at least 2 weeks ago to leave based on his performance but such is the nature of today's world of football.

If "the lurch" meant "September" we would be the favorites in the CFP. Doing it now just leaves us with no backup for the Orange bowl.

We’ve got a back up. I trust Hunter Johnson if needed as much as I would have trusted DJ

We also have Helms if he decides to stay. He’s no slouch and a pretty good QB. I believe he worked at the Manning football camp this past summer.

You do know when you lose your job you have to leave work right. This metaphor only makes sense if people stayed around after they get let go.

You've been nothing but critical of DJ the last week and now you're mad he's leaving? You're worse than the guy who complains about his wife non-stop and then begs her to come back when she divorces him.
Make up your mind.

KB was already festering the locker room; his presence alone would have been a detriment with the potential to become a locker room cancer. DJ is in an uncomfortable situation, a long way from home, and I have little confidence in him even as a backup QB.
