well he had been in 3 different programs so I am sure he had been coached up and he played in juco...bama game was the first game they really let him loose. If they had done that sooner he probably could have been even better



This is what kills me. Why does it seem we are the only program who brings their QB's along slowly? I feel like we take so long to develop them and when we do they are barely average.

this is a big problem. THe excuse-makers will tell you our offense is so complex that it can only be mastered by a Jr or Sr. That's nonsense, of course.

Other QBs play well immediately. It just requires proper coaching to put them in the right system and call plays that utilize their skill set. Manziel and Jameis were both redshirt freshmen who, obviously, played very well.

In fact, 5 of the last 6 national champions had first year starters at QB. Other schools can get productive QB play from inexperienced players. It's called coaching.
