Even running scout team gets him reps as opposed to getting 3rd string reps during game weeks.


Put it this way -- is "scout team" helpful to him at all as a developing QB? Or does he just NEED to be a 2nd string QB to get "meaningful rep's" in practice?

I've never bought the idea that WH is just hell bent on starting next year, and expecting team/coaches to get him ready to start.

I MIGHT buy that he's stuck on the scout team again next year, that is about useless to him, so he's leaving just to be QB2 somewhere for better practice reps?

and what's the rules on transferring again? Can he? Does he have to wait a year if he transfers again?

Does he have to really make the right decision about where he transfers to? Or can he just transfer again if he doesn't like the next team?

If he has to sit a year after his next transfer .... Ole Miss doesn't seem quite right for the kid?

It would be interesting to know the number of All-American CFB QBs over say the past say 20 years that started their first RS Freshman seasons at 3rd string or below versus those that were 1st or 2nd string then.

he is running an offense vs a defense...that helps development.

I doubt the reps during game week are huge for development...that would be spring, fall and bowl practices. I think he would still do the drills, for development, that JD and Nuss do during the week. I also would think that his responsibilities would change this year since they aren't redshirting him.
