Here's what I'd do re QB

I'm just a fucktard in moms basement with splooge stained sweats on the front and skid marks on the back ... But here's what I do ...
I tell Troy Williams he is a real asset to the program ... The one at Middlebury. And give him a bus ticket and let him know College Doog will meet him when he gets there.
I then tell Jeff Lindstein that he will now be practicing with H backs and tight ends. He can still hold the clip board on the sidelines if he likes to.
It's a 3 horse race with Miley as insurance policy ... Though I probably start him in game 1 so one of the freshmen don't get shell shock from BSU. Then after another shitty performance demote him to #3 QB. Game 2 against Sac State I break in the winner of the Magna Carta - Brownsville competition. I put the future of the program in the hands of these two. We are looking between 5-7 and 7-5 next season so may as well let these two get as much experience as possible.
I sell these two on the fact they are the future. I sell them on the fact that whomever is not the starter is one play away from being the man.
This is how I'd do it.
Now back to jerking off ...

five reasons
What I do know is that from what I've seen from Miles, he just doesn't have IT. Period. Unlike Lindquist who I do think could play another position for us, just not sure Miles could make a position switch and be a successful player. Just don't see the drive in him that you'd want to see.
On a side note, I think it's going to be really interesting to see what happens with John Ross in the offseason. His body language last night was beyond terrible. His best long-term position is DB but it's clear that mentally he isn't on board. From somebody's opinion that I trust that tends to spend time around the players, Ross is a guy that perhaps doesn't have the kind of killer instinct that you'd want to see in guys to be their best. If there was one huge takeaway that you could get from watching the 2nd "The U" movie, it was how so many of their players were driven to be the best that they could be. They were driven to win at a high level. They were driven to win championships. They were driven to be professionals. You don't get to that level by showing up. You get to that level through hard work, dedication, and desire.
If miles doesn't win the job you ask him if he wants to be the back up or try and find another position as well. If he doesn't win the job outright he's either leaving the first chance he gets, or he's gonna want to find a spot b/c they will not go back to him unless KJ and browning get hurt.
Troy, wish he would have had a real shot in a game without typhoon conditions, but I do respect the writing has been on the wall at UW if they didn't give him a shot over the miles weiner arm. So best move on to another program and get a fresh start
Nothing will help to undermine the team as quickly as fucking around with the QB position and not establishing leadership there.
We had zero leadership at the position this year. Who knows if Magna Carta or Browning will be able to step in and show the leadership that allows the players to believe in them. But you saw the results this year of what happens when nobody believes. Get down 2 scores and everybody quits because they know that there's no way that they'd come back in the game.
I'm predicting what Peterman will do, not saying what I would do.
Best player plays, regardless of age or time with team.
Seems Peterman and Willingham put qualifiers above talent.
I'm just going off what I read on boreds, not saying Peterman is like Willingham, don't be a twister.
