re: Use Bowl Game as a Test for Nuss. If he fails, use a transfer

It's a tricky current for HCs to navigate. If standing QBs know the HC will bump them in favor of a more experienced transfer, why stick around?

Nevertheless, we're going to have to bring someone in. If Nuss can't beat them out, that's on him. Ideally, we bring in a KJ Jefferson or similar and Nuss wins the job and they're stuck here as backup. This happened at Ole Miss with Jaxon Dart and Spencer Sanders. Or, you find someone with 3 years of eligibility remaining who is willing to risk sitting behind Nuss for a year or two. There are QBs at crappier schools that might take that gamble to play at a big-time program - they could always grad transfer again in a year or two if they don't see a path to the field.
