    I'm sure the doors always open for new believers.

    Hmm exactly. You, the reader, are inferring that some think Joe Douglas is listening based on what they wrote.

    He does seem to have a similar body type to that of a professional jockey.

  8. Well yes we do take it seriously.Its a decision that will have ripple effects for years to come. Its disheartening that you DONT take it seriously but yet feel the need to expell the energy complaining about it

    TBF, my comment wasn't aimed at just one side of the argument. I think there's a lot of this on both sides.

    so what do you Wilson haters think will happen?

    Wilson busts, gets Douglas & Saleh fired in 2/3 years and we are back at this rodeo again? OR am I off base

    Not gonna happen! Douglas is building a team that won't be dependent on the QB being amazing, in my opinion. If Wilson is great, that will put the Jets over the top.

    Here is a question for @KurtTheJetsFan and the Wilson non-believers: Do you think he can't play? Like his play on the field will be bad or do you just think his body type is too fragile and he will spend his career injured? I could see that being a true concern, but not that he is just going to be terrible on the field.

    Regarding Zach and his choice to go to BYU, this is a good article:
    https://www.deseret.com/sports/2021...-finalists-nfl-draft-2021-john-beck-3dqb-camp

    Wilson grew up a huge fan of University of Utah football, attended longtime Utes head coach Kyle Whittingham’s camps, but was not offered a scholarship to play for his dream school, ending up instead at its biggest rival.

    He originally committed to play for Boise State before his high school senior season, only to switch allegiances and sign with the school he despised as a youngster following a trip to the BYU campus in Provo.


    He also isn't a full blown Mormon, more spiritual
    Although he considers himself “a Mormon, an LDS Church member, for sure,” and was baptized a member of the church as a youngster, Wilson said he is not “comfortable” being portrayed as a representative of the church in the way that other high-profile Latter-day Saint athletes such as Jimmer Fredette, Taysom Hill and Daniel Sorensen are.

    “It is not something I am against, it is just that I didn’t grow up active in the church,” he said. “I’m not that ‘poster boy’ for the church. … I was never really a churchgoer my whole life, just not involved much in it. My family and I hold the same morals and values that the church does, for sure, but I really didn’t know a lot about the teaching and stuff until I got to BYU.”

    The New Orleans Saints’ Hill, for instance, served a two-year mission for the church in Australia; Wilson says the thought of leaving for two years never entered his mind.


    Interesting to read he was diagnosed with ADHD when he was young

    The self-proclaimed “football junkie” can study film for hours, though.

    Beck calls Wilson “one of the fastest-thinkers I’ve been around” and a “whiz at reading and anticipating defenses.”

    Grimes and Roderick have said his attention to detail is off the charts, and even an unflattering look at Wilson’s NFL potential — more on that later — says he is “very smart with keen recall.”

    I like the term “non believer” better than “hater”.
