Coached at Texas Tech, cannot recruit at the same rate as Oklahoma, Texas, Texas A&M or even to an extent TCU or Baylor
That exactly glowing report is more indicative of Texas Tech than the ability of Kingsberry. You also seem to forget the Texas Tech defense which is cool, because opposing offenses do too
He averaged like over 35 points a game for his tenure while being outgunned talent wise by other schools if you consider his entire offensive roster
People who attend Tech which I talk to, being a native Texan, still love the guy and wish he was still the coach and confirm it's just Tech changing the guard to guise the reality that they cannot get the right recruits to compete with the big boys
USC is a major college program with tradition and they do not agree with you about his ability
... and KK has sure gotten into McVay's own realm because he values what KK has to say

I think actually he might be clipped in the later first round by a team trading back into the first... and I would have to do you justice of you coming down here for a proper steak, you know the Texas kind which is over the plate
Someone once said he high fived McVey once....hence the connection

If it walks like a duck, ...........
To me it is as obvious as can be. The Cards had the first 2 picks of the draft. The first was their choice of coaches and second, their choice of players. Now lets deflect back a couple months when I stated that the only goal the Cards must have this offseason is to do everything they can to make sure their new franchise qb is successful, nothing else should matter this year.
But wait, back to Cards 'first 2 picks'. So what do they do right out of the gate? Do they choose/hire a qb whisperer to groom our young pocket passer? No, after what we would presume was weeks of deliberation, they go with a coach that doesn't fit at all with a future with Rosen as our qb. But again wait, if they didn't sign someone who is a match with Rosen, then what were they thinking all along?
Only one thing left fellow fans, they had already made up their minds that Josh wasn't in their future plans. They made up their minds back then to change course at qb and start anew with the perfect fit of K & K. This was a done deal long before we all began debating it.
I'm sorry to all you Rosen supporters but this decision was decided a while ago. Nothing else makes any sense whatsoever. Or are the Cards that stupid and confused as to be going in 2 directions at once?
We have made it way too complicated. Afterall, if it walks like a duck, and ......., THEN IT'S A DUCK!

As Kliff Kingsbury famously said, “I (we) don’t know what we don’t know.”

I think you are reading too much into this. Kliff has plenty of history with pocket passer QB's similar to Rosen that he recruited and gave a ton of playing time through the years. Davis Webb, Nic Shimonek, and Alan Bowman are 3 good examples of this. Rosen and Kliff can have plenty of success together.
I think they are hoping to trade down and will draft a defensive player, whether it's at #1 or #4 or somewhere else in the draft list. Now, in the unlikely event that they actually draft Murray...then I agree, it was a conspiracy/package deal at the time they hired Kingsbury. There is a lot of smoke in that relationship with them having the same agent (who was Kliff's roommate in college).

One of the Draft Annuals continues to claim that the FB Draft is all a smokescreen designed to give Murray more negotiating leverage for a career in Major League Baseball.

Which makes sense. His MLB agent is Scott Boras, a guy known for playing hardball in negotiations with MLB teams. It would not be a surprise at all if Kyler & Boras are looking to use the NFL to get more guaranteed money out of MLB.

Rosen is not a statue in the pocket like some here want to keep reinforcing (you would think he was as immobile as Neil Lomax) and Murray is a pocket passer who happens to have the ability to run... but the Cardinals had no intention early on to tie Murray to KK, or he would not have took his coaching interview to explain how he would use Rosen
One HUGH warning sign, in my opinion, is that Murray was stated to prefer playing baseball (MLB). Once he realized (or his agent informed him) that he could get a much larger contract by entering the NFL as a top ten pick, THEN he chose football. As my franchise QB, I don't want someone that is choosing football mainly because of a financial decision.
In this scenario, I could see Murray maximizing what he can out of his rookie NFL contract and only then transitioning over to MLB.
And for this reason alone, I would stay clear of Murray!

Imo you can throw that Alabama game tape out the window. Oklahoma has no defense, it's horrible. If both teams traded defenses in that game Oklahoma wins hands down.
