Can he learn Kill's offense enough in one month to start against. Washington ? Or do we just waste the game to get him ready for the rest of the season. Probably 20+ dogs anyway.

He will start learning the offense a lot sooner than August. It should not be an issue for him to pick up the offense, he already said that the terminology is similar to what they had at L'ville.

Bolin plans to be a coach after playing. He will be ready.

Welcome to the banks! I say go with the experienced guys (Gio, Bolin) to start then gradually bring in Lewis over time.........maybe even red shirt unless QB starts to get thin.

lmao off at some posters about who is better talent Bolin threw for allmost 1200 yards in 2015....we had like 70 yards passing in like 3 B10 games stretch last year..
Kyle Bolin threw for 362 yards and three touchdowns to lead the University of Louisville football team to a 41-17 triumph over Syracuse on Saturday afternoon at Papa John's Cardinal Stadium.

Brandon Radcliff also ran for 117 yards for the Cardinals (5-4, 4-2), who won for the fifth time in their past six games and got above .500 for the first time this season.

"Our best team effort all year, as far as offense, defense and special teams," UofL coach Bobby Petrino said in his post-game press conference.

UofL rolled up a season-high 579 yards of total offense under the direction of Bolin

I think you're missing the point: it's that "some" here are acting as if Bolin is coming in here as some kind of passing AND running phenom at QB when, in fact, that simply is NOT the case. He's a very nice pickup, without question, but all we're saying is "slow down" a bit with the expectations and heaping praise on this kid.

From Todderick today:

How similar is Louisville's offense to Rutgers'?
"It's actually very similar to what we do at the University of Louisville. The concepts are very similar, the terminology is very similar, which I was excited about because sometimes coaches do a lot of different things. And sometimes it can be hard to unlearn what you learned previously, and then learn what you are about to run next year. So the fact that it's so similar is going to make the transition process a lot easier."

Really the only obvious difference is that they score doing it.

At least we have enough depth that this is an option now.
