So from the sounds of it Koetter decided to make those 19 players "happy" by booting Keller to the curb and having Carpenter be starting QB.

It was such a big deal for a couple of days. But that was all any could gather. They did pass along that if Keller chose to go to a Division 1 school he had to sit out for a year or he could chose to go to a Division 2 school and immediately start playing.

My whole issue with it was the Koetter chose Keller first. He should have kept Keller as his starter and next season given the position to Carpenter. The way Koetter did this was just so backhanded. It seriously made me think that Koetter just "stabbed" Keller in the back. I lost a lot of respect for Koetter with this situation.

I watched and interview with Carpenter and wasn't impressed with him at all. He was like (and I'm totally paraphrasing basically what he was saying) "oh well, I don't want us (ASU) to go to the Insight Bowl again, we should be going to the Rose Bowl". I was like OMG are you kidding me. He sounded like an arrogant ass. But then again, ASU has totally jinxed themselves in my book. They are walking around being like "oh we made the Rose Bowl in 1986 and then in 1996, this is our year to go again". The moment they start "assuming" the team is unbeatable and that they will make it to the Rose Bowl is the moment they don't. But they (ASU football) is going on this assumption that they make it to the Rose Bowl every 10 years. Hell, they have even put up a billboard, right of I-17 saying ASU & Rose Bowl (which made absolutely no sense to me the first time I saw it since the Rose Bowl is played in Pasadena, but now that I know the 10 year thing, I get it).

You're bad at sports.

There is MUCH more public information on this issue than you've posted; I know more, and I live in Iowa.

Keller is a retard.
