Coaches Freeman and Rees were all in on Buchner last season. They didn’t hit the portal for a veteran, and fully committed to Buchner. Too bad he was injured six quarters into the season, but I don’t agree with the narrative (not yours) that he was somehow not treated well or not developed. The fact is he has 6 passing TDs and 8 ints to his credit, and we will miss him as our backup QB capable of coming in and turning games in our favor with his running; but I believe Stretches of poor passing and poor mental mistakes will always make him a higher risk than reward as a starter.
