Do you think there is any, I mean ANY chance that Rhule promised him the starting job?

I find the notion that either Smothers or Thompson are the missing link in this offense quite comical.
Sims ain’t it, either. But acting like Logan Smothers…who most declared not good enough to play QB at all last year…would be leading us to easy wins is just axe-grinding/grasping at straws.

These are your assumptions? Because you're stating it as fact.... If fact, where are you getting it?
That aside, the right thing to do, IMO, is to lay out all the info and what to expect, but encourage him to stay. Why would a coach ever need to tell a player he SHOULD look elsewhere? The player has plenty of people to help him decide what's best. Family, friends, other players etc. The fact a coach tells you you should leave shows the player your coach doesn't have your back or confidence in you. Any coach should know that is how it will be perceived at least.
I assume he's not lying, but there is always a chance the second hand story isn't accurate. and potato, potatohh on the second part.
If I might quote you on the bold.

Is that why Damon's not coaching?
Then, maybe he can find us a responsible quarterback?.
pretty sure he’s an assistant coach at Omaha WestsideIs that why Damon's not coaching?
I see what you did there...
that said, add the follow up sentence for full context.

If you want me to change it to...."I THINK, a player would perceive a coach saying you should leave, means the coach doesn't have your back or confidence in you" ..consider it changed.
Actually adding think doesn't change the important part.I see what you did there...

Do you have proof that is what occurred.
Do you know for a factthe coach told Casey he should transfer.
Now if Casey's dad said something to the affect Casey might transfer if he wasn't getting his starting job back, I can see Rhule saying maybe you should transfer.
As I said before in this discussion, the only people that really know were the ones in the room. So who might look better if some of the discussion was leaked to the public? Who won't say anything about what was said in that meeting?
There is a story quoting Rhule said that Sims is starting this weekend if healthy, you are aware of that right?
"a fair crap"? It looks like you were trying to type "a fair shot" but board rules don't let me say how I know.We lost 3 QBs to the portal and the only one that was committed in the 2023 class. There seems to be more to it and we don't even have a future to drink kool-aid over right now.

When Simms got here he did make a lot of comments that Casey was competing like it was his job. It seems to be far from wanting assurances though. More like wanting to be treated like the returning starter, but having to win the job. Miscommunication or what not, the sad part is that even if he was slighted and not given a fair crap, it would already be his job again if he had stayed.
