OT Connor Cook not well liked by his teamates????
Sounds like Cook has issues with just coming off as a prick. I thought it odd that he was not a team captain. And of course they way he came off disrespecting Archie Griffin.
If this has already been discussed, please delete.

Dude was just so great at throwing that 4th down incompletion against MIchigan and handing the ball off over and over against Iowa and Ohio State. Just a #winner.

picks up homeless guys and pays them to choke him in the shower.
/I might be thinking about someone else though

It's practically impossible for a SR starting quarterback not to be voted as a team captain.
December 11th, 2015 at 11:04 AM ^
Rumor has it our Brownies REALLY like him and are prepared to make him their first pick regardless of where we end up in the draft.
That's not shocking either BTW. The Browns falling in love with a QB nobody else has ranked highly.
December 11th, 2015 at 11:17 AM ^
I figured he is going to be a bust and if this happens, it pretty much cements it.

Well that's nothing if not consistent with the Browns' established penchant for doing everything in their power to lose us as fans.

I hate this kind of thread. The whole "they may have beat us, but they are bad people" meme is weak. Yes Adolphus Washington solicits prostitutes, yes Terrell Pryor gets free cars and tattoos, yes Connor Cook is a cock and Tony Mandrich suffered from the effects of steroids, but it is really sort of Shadenfreunde.

Okay. Let's only point out when bad things are said or done by our players. That seems fair. We'll look self-deprecating and polite. Perfect.

Not surprising, I never liked Cook either.

Yay, another MSU thread. MGoblog is where I come for all of my MSU Football and Basketball news.

Connor Cook may rub some people the wrong way but he was voted 4th in the captains vote and has done nothing but lead his team to wins. The biggest difference is he is "not Kirk Cousins." We don't like him because he's a cocky and good quarterback.
I think this is another non-topic clickbait by ESPN. Last year it was "Jamies' red flags and history off the field" and "Mariota's problems are that he doesn't have any character issues."

And his teammates aren't even mentioned.

is coming out in the open because the NFL is doing their homework on a potential draftee.
I don't care either way. It was pretty telling to me that he wasn't voted as captain by his teamates but even that can mean nothing.
I've never met the kid and he makes very rare appearances for local TV interviews, so there isn't much public interaction to go on. It is weird though the winningest QB in your programs history isn't used more as the face of your program. Keep in mind this is the same damn program that paraded around Jeff Smoker like the second coming of Brady Quinn as a Heisman candidate before he'd even done one thing to deserve that.

In the comments on the article, posters are giving him a pass as compared to wife beaters, etc. in the league, but the point they are missing is that a prick like him will not be a team player and will likely conflict with coaches. He got away with it at MSU, but the NFL does its due diligence before paying millions.
December 11th, 2015 at 12:02 PM ^
There are numerous examples of the NFL paying millions and THEN doing their due diligence....Jamarcus Russell is best example I can come up with off the top of my head.

factory for the NFL? They produce more clipbboard carriers than franchise leaders than most schools. From Hoyer to Stanton, to Cousins and now heir apparent, Connor Cook, the program is replete with guys who can make a pro roster but can't produce when called upon as more than a backup. I guess Cousins comes closest to being a quarterback who has started and won a share of games. But everytime you think he might command the position, he does someting to show he doesn't.
December 11th, 2015 at 12:53 PM ^
You just listed three NFL QBs that Dantonio produced, with Cook being on his way to #4. I wouldn't exactly say thats a knock on their program.
