Quite honestly, we need to keep both, and not be hoping to push out either one. It will cost some bank, but we need two competent QBs on the roster.
The thought of anointing a true freshman, after a single digit win, against a 3-7 UCLA team, is just asinine. A UCLA team that has losses on the season of 43-10, 35-10, 48-10, 56-6, and has losses to the likes of, UNLV, New Mexico, Northwestern, and Maryland.
If TJ puts up impressive performances in these last three games, then there’s definitely going to be some decisions that need to be made. Doubt we can pay DR enough to be a back-up, but I think we could hold TJ with enough cash and a promise of a future at N.
PSU will be a slightly better test, especially being a Happy Valley, and Iowa probably a slightly better test than PSU, although at home…then we’ll see who our bowl opponent is.
I guessed my point in this long winded post is: Why do some feel such urgency to get rid of DR. let’s see how the rest of the season plays out, have a true quarterback competition in the spring, and be thankful that we apparently have a competent backup QB on the roster for a change.
