Secret weapon for Florida Game?

If he can learn the receivers' routes by then. So far, he can't....

I say this is the game Shepard finally throws the ball.

Maybe so, but it would be an incredibly stupid thing to do.

I say this is the game Shepard finally throws the ball. Florida will be expecting runs when he's in. Maybe an option with him (I'm not sure if he's done that yet)

RS doesn't even know 3 plays. How's he going to be able to learn a pass play in a week if he doesn't know 3 running plays after 9 months?

even better secret weapon...

There is absolutely no way he knows only 3 plays.

He showed more diversity during the freaking spring game.

to think that RS only knows 3 plays is ridiculous. Any player that challenged couldn't have learned more than a couple of plays for the HS All American Game.

His bio: Finished his senior season ranked as the No. 1 high school player in the state of Texas by Rivals.com and SuperPrep ... Honored by the Associated Press as a first-team Class 5A all-state performer and the Texas Class 5A Offensive Player of the Year in 2008 ... Was also named the Touchdown Club of Houston’s Offensive Player of the Year following his senior season ... One of 32 finalists for the national Joe Montana Quarterback of the Year award ... Earned the right to compete in the Under Armour High School All-America Game on Jan. 4 ... While starting at quarterback for the Black Team, he accounted for two touchdowns in the game, including a 92-yard touchdown pass in the first half ... Also showed off his elusiveness by scoring on a 15-yard quarterback draw early in the second half while finishing the game with 39 yards rushing on four carries ... Finished his high school career with more than 8,000 yards of total offense and 98 total touchdowns to his credit ... Rushed for 66 touchdowns while passing for 32 touchdowns during his high school career ...

He only really was used a lot in that game (and the Arkie game following) because JL was out from injury. They didn't ever pull JL because they felt JJ was "ready." He just happened to be where he was when he was needed.

And it is more understandable for JJ because I don't think he was here during the prior year's spring game. His first practice was in fall camp.

RS played as one of the team's QB for the spring game. Now he suddenly knows only three plays?

Please.

This is more of the coaches not wanting to put him in for experience (much like they didn't with JJ last year) than ANYTHING about RS not being ready.
