Re: GDT: Drake Bulldogs
I might be criticized for stating an opinion that might be taken unfavorably, but that's ok, but here's my thoughts however right or wrong they may be......I think it's been Stigs and the coaching staff's M.O. lately to choose the best QB in the group and name him #1 and stick with him for 4 years come hell or high water,unless injured....no problem with that, all coaching staffs probably do the same (whether it's under their control or not,ie QB's leaving).Herein lies the dilemma this thread has brought forth about just how good should the 2nd string (and all other QB's) should be if it's a pretty widely accepted view that if your not #1, you might be looking at sitting on the bench or getting very limited playing time in your 4 yrs (assuming) time on the team. I assert that under these presumptions, any QB looking at this from a realistic view, who's just as good potentially or realistically, he's going to move on, if he plans on playing at the QB position.That said, this suggest's to me to expect the 2nd string QB to be just as good or dang close might be a little bit hoping for too much....it could happen, but mostly the pool under the 1st string QB is either very young and inexperienced, diluted from good prospects moving on , or bless their souls team members who stuck it out regardless and hung in there.....yes, their seems to alway's be a little drop off, and it should be expected, not looked at as a failure with any particular person, just the way the system plays out, usually.You have to change something in your system if you expect greater results, otherwise, it stays the same for the most part.
