mvb should be a situational player at the least. especially inside the 10.
This is what bothers me the most. We have a legit running QB threat on the bench, yet we continue to run a zone read from the 3 yard line with Nuss.

It was like when we continued to try and QB sneak with Myles Brennan, while 6’6 TJ Finley sat on the bench.

Maybe this will help:

And Nuss isn't doing enough right now to elevate the team whether it's due to sorry play calling or poor reads. There are many times he could pick up yards and refuses to do so and either take sacks or force throws in bad coverage. It's worth seeing what you could get from him. And if not, then go back to Nuss. Hell making the move could wake his arse up.

The plan was to redshirt unless absolutely needed, he could still play in 3 more games though.

Ego needs to be put aside and do what’s right for the team to win.

Period. The end.

MVB should have gotten a chance against Ole Miss, especially considering Nuss was playing like shite and Ole Miss did not prepare one iota to defend against a QB who can run. Brian Kelly is such a pussy for not making the move.
