Not if only half of his passes connect and he throws an interception two thirds as often as touchdowns. Nobody's expecting him to be Andrew Luck, but he's not even Zach Maynard!

Thankfully Nunes is not Zach Maynard.  Our buddy Zach has yet to beat an FBS team this year.  Our buddy Zach is unable to complete passes to one of the five best WRs in the Pac-12, if not the nation.  Our buddy Zach has been OVER-throwing receivers which has left him vulnerable to interceptions with big returns.  Our buddy Zach has never beaten SC, has not won a Big Game, and is playing at a lower level this year than last.

Yes, I hope Nunes never becomes like Zach Maynard.

I doubt Nunes will become first or second team all-Pac-12, but if he can get help the team get to 8-4 or 9-3 it will be a good year.  Right now, Nunes and the team can still reach 9-3 and have a much more realistic chance at 9-3 than UCB has of going to any bowl game this year.

I am sure Shaw's general theme was enough already.  He has Nunes' back, which I think is the best play if the goal is to get Nunes comfortable and confident enough to make the right game day reads.
