If he doesn't get the starting job, he probably will. I mean, by all accounts he won all 15 spring practices, threw far less interceptions, and had by far the best spring game.

I mean, if the staff doesn't name him the starter then that means the staff is very intellectually dishonest. In that case it's time to go.

Brennan was right there with him in the Spring game.

If he is the backup to start the season, you simply make this pitch for him to stay: he is the backup to the guy who has been hurt more games than healthy in his very long career, most of which he never played.

I will have to disagree. I have been a noted MB supporter since before Joe arrived. Brennan did not lead the offense with the efficiency that Nuss did IMO. Nuss also had two drops on beautifully thrown passes that would have added about 75 yards to his totals. The thing with Myles that worries me is that he takes longer to get the ball out. Myles is best when he is not rushed, and I am unsure if we have the O-line to afford him that opportunity this season.

I think for the most part people seem to see what they want to see out of these guys. To me, miles looked like the best option. Nuss looked the best 75% of the time, and then he would throw it to the defense. Daniels looked bad until the 2nd half where he improved, but his throwing motion was awkward, and he seemed a little Inaccurate. I’d like to see what they look like after a few days of camp.

Are you sure you watched the right spring game? As Nuss scored on all four of four of his possessions and in the process he also threw several NFL level passes that Brennan can only hope to throw in his wildest wet dreams.

Meanwhile, Brennan only scored on 2 of his 5 possessions. However, on the final score Brennan is credited with, he really doesn't deserve the credit because he badly under threw the ball which then got knocked by accident into the hands of Malik Nabers by the LSU defender.

Apparently, you didn't watch the same spring game the majority of us watched.

If Nuss isn't named the starter in the fall, he will inevitably hit the transfer portal so fast it will make Brian Kelly's head spin and I won't blame him one iota.

You know, when a competition is close, and this one is not close at all, but for the sake of argument, let's say it's close, common sense dictates you give the job to the guy who you will need for the next three years, as opposed to the guy that will be history as soon as the season ends.
