Arizona State football head coach Kenny Dillingham still hasn’t named his starting quarterback for the season opener. What gives? August 25th would have been the absolute perfect moment to make the announcement, especially considering how many signs are pointing directly to Kentucky transfer Cutter Boley.
All Eyes on Cutter Boley, But Coach Is Quiet
Honestly, everyone around the program knows who it should be. All the intel, all the buzz, it points to Cutter Boley getting the nod. The guy has been consistently taking the first-team reps in practice. You see it, I see it, everyone sees it! And to top it off, August 25th wasn’t just another Tuesday, it was Boley’s 21st birthday! Talk about a prime opportunity for Dillingham to drop the news and create some real hype for his guy. What better gift than confirming he’s the one leading the charge? Instead, crickets.
Dillingham’s Own Deadlines Are Blown
This isn’t just a general delay, either. Dillingham himself set the timeline. He said just last week he hoped to get that formality out of the way on August 23rd or 24th. Yeah, that time has sailed right past us. The Sun Devils kick off their season on September 5th against Morgan State at Mountain America Stadium. Dillingham specifically wanted to name a starting quarterback at least 10 days before that opener. That means the clock is seriously ticking now, with less than 11 days left before kickoff! The longer he waits, the less time the team has to truly gel with their leader under center.
This silent treatment from Dillingham has to end soon. The Sun Devils hit the field on September 5th. Fans are itching to know who will be leading the offense when that first whistle blows. Time to make a call, Coach!
