I always thought he would be used like Burton is used at Florida, RP was used for us in 2007 (when Flynn was not hurt and RP was used more as a regular QB), or Tebow was used for Florida in 2006.

The one thing he could learn from Jefferson is that sometimes you have cut it straight up the field in the first hole you see even if it might just be a small gain and then maybe once past line of scrimmage and initial wave of tacklers try to get outside to make the big play.

JJ has gotten better in the zone read at making a quick decision on where to run and then hitting the hole fairly fast. Last year it seems RS would try to beat everybody outside when running wildcat. Not sure if that was the coach's call or if he still thinks he can outrun everybody like in high school, but he needs to run inside more and take what he can get instead of bouncing outside trying to beat everyone to the edge every play. Ingram and Cam both have made big plays taking the shotgun snap being patient, waiting for blocking to develop and then hitting inside hole quickly and then cutting outside 3 or 4 yards past line of scrimmage.

He has run inside as a rb a little, so I know he will do it. He just needs to do it more when lined up as the qb in the wildcat.
