Miami Debate: Who Is More Important Between Toney & Mensah

This game, to me, remains a field goal game one way or the other. I think the overreaction for one receiver who is, and guys in the back, what is his 5'9", 5'10"? What is he, a buck 70? Is somehow or another going to be worth that many points? I think is out of control. Absolutely not. He is not more important than the quarterback is on Miami. Had Darion Menza. Been the guy that got hurt. 5'11", 190, and Miami can't survive without him, huh? That's ridiculous. Yeah, and 19. Ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. No, Joe, no one's trying to say that the quarterback is not the most important player on the team. I mean, that's obvious. But your question earlier was that you thought I was diminishing his inability to be on the field. You still are. You still are. In this game, yes, because it's about matchups. It has nothing to do with long term. I know, but Joe, you're saying that... That the quarterback is the most important thing for Malachi Tony, and it's not Malachi Tony, correct? So it's the quarterback. But what did he do last year? The same exact thing that he's doing this year with a different quarterback. And he's got the same thing. Yeah, he did the same thing with a different quarterback. Yeah, but not a quarterback who's playing on Sundays, Craig. What? Who's playing on Sunday? Back up! Who's playing on Sunday? Carson Beck's about to be. Oh, stop. Oh, stop. Oh, man. Oh, you're right. He's not going to see any action. You don't think so? No, not at all. It's going to be Gardner Minshew the rest of the season. Come on, man. Come on, man. Fifth round pick? Gardner Minshew is going to be the quarterback. Fifth round pick? Is he going to be a starter this year at some point for Arizona? And so is Jalen Milroe. What does that mean? So is Vagnano. That doesn't mean anything. Jalen Milroe was a hell of a college quarterback. He was. Don't mistake it. Don't mistake it. He was way better than Carson Beck. Way better than Carson Beck. Carson Beck was this close to winning a national championship. What are you talking about? So if it wasn't Carson Beck, and let's say it was, what's his name again? One more time. How do you write it? Is it then? How do you pronounce it? Finiano. What? How is it? Oh, I don't know. Finiano. If Finiano was the quarterback last year for Miami, he has the same stats? No, but you just said that last year it's not like he had a quarterback throwing to him. He didn't have the same numbers. Joe, he had the same exact numbers last year with a different quarterback. And another quarterback he could potentially have the same. I'm saying he's got a quarterback that's playing on Sundays in the NFL. He's not playing Sundays. He hasn't played in a game. He hasn't played in a single NFL game. That's like saying Drew Allar is playing on Sundays. He's not playing on Sundays. Of course. If he's getting a check from an NFL team, then he's good enough to play on Sundays. So is Cam Little. He's a kicker, okay? It's not the same as playing, Is getting a check. Not the same thing. So he's playing the Ravens the same as playing Notre Dame. Same concept, right? Same concept. I've lost. The fact that they're not good enough to start on a Sunday, but they're good enough to get a check from an NFL team. It means they were probably damn good in college football when they were playing. Probably really good. The NFL and college are not the same. They're not equal. All I'm saying is, if you're getting a check from an NFL team, you were probably a pretty good quarterback last year. But you're not playing on Sundays. It's factually incorrect. Drew Aller is not playing on Sundays. He's sitting on the bench. And still getting paid. But he's not playing. You said he's playing on Sundays. You're diminishing his college quarterbacking ability because he's not playing on Sundays. And what I'm saying is the fact that he, okay, he may not play on Sundays, but he's getting a big boy check from an NFL team to be on a roster, not because he sucked in college. That's my point. You're comparing the best of the best. It was a fifth-round pick in the NFL draft who has not played a single game in the NFL this season. Carson Beck. That's a fact. That's a fact. And Richardson was a fourth overall pick for Indianapolis Colts. How much football has he seen? I understand that, but he played on Sundays. Carson Beck has not. Where's the debate? There's no debate. Carson Beck is now the backup quarterback for Arizona this week. Right. And he may play at some point. It's possible. Carson Beck has more stats and has more records than Malachi Toney ever will in his college career. Why is that? Malachi Toney. Because he couldn't play? Malachi Toney was a potential Heisman Trophy winner. You think Malachi, no, you think Malachi Toney as a freshman at 18 made Carson Beck? Is that your statement? That Carson Beck was fortunate enough to have him? I think Malachi Toney was the best player on UM last year and he's the best player on UM this year.
