I agree with dabigv. Maynard runs hot and cold. Also, as Garvin said, was good against us and probably will be again.
If anything, however, the reaction to Maynard is more what Shaw described. Cal fans, including Jenkins, were ready to bronze Maynard's arm following the Colorado victory last year, not even taking in consideration who the competition was. Then, a few games later, they saw who he was and wanted to change quarterbacks. Now, they've come to the conclusion that the other quarterbacks, with the exception of true freshman Zach Kline are even worse.
It's weird that the media are giving Nunes a pass as a first year quarterback while not noting that other first year quarterbacks are performing just fine.
