Ed will deliberately not declare a leader in the QB derby until August.

Even though it will be obvious to him and everyone else that there is a leader coming out of the spring, he will not say it, because he wants to keep the 2 and/or 3 guy from transferring.

Will it work?

I feel like collegiate transferring has gotten out of hand. Just saw ESPN give a bulletin that Pitt has 8 players transferring because of a coaching change. Pick a school based on the school and the coach. Not a fan of people jumping ship just because their coach left.

It's sad that it has to be done that way to keep a freshman or sophomore from leaving. These kids are so shortsighted to not realize that you're just jumping from one spot where there is competition to another spot where there is competition. But in the second place, you're behind the learning curve and will have to sit for a year.

Have some fricking patience and improve your game.

Me personally, I'd be ok with naming a starter prior to each game when we have first year starters.

If it takes a year of competition to prove who deserves it, then take a year to to prove it.

It is about results.

He needs to name a starter sometime in the spring. New QB, new linemen, new offense...they will need time to gel. Miami will be pinning they're ears back on 9/2. We need to be ready

The backup QB is one unfortunate injury from being the starter. He should not leave.

If a third string will really want to transfer for not being the better player, I don't think he'd have the chest to lead a football team anyways

This may be the most useless thread of all time.

I hate O but he’s doing the right thing with the QB’s right now. Let’s see how he manages them during the season.

I don't really see why any would transfer even if they aren't the starter.

Brennan hasn't really done anything so whoever the backup is, it's likely they are gonna play.

So Ed is doing the same thing every coach does with two young QBs fighting for the job

But he'll name a starting RB although none of the group has been close to being considered as a starter until this year.

Our fans continue to think the game is played on a message board. Get a grip on reality; it will be obvious to the players by then even if it isn’t publicly announced so you can talk about it on tigerdropongs
