Today is the day

Isn't this the day JJ annonces his top two QBs? That should help to get the offense into synch better. Any guesses as to the top two?

Any chance a frosh QB gets redshirted?

I don't know about the top two, but I have a feeling Willis will not be the top one. That would be a mistake in my opinion.

If Willis does not make the "top two" where will he transfer?

If Jones doesn't think Willis is good enough to be one of the top two QB's in his system, what difference does it make?
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

I haven't seen any practices so I have no idea what the QBs look like. I hope some that have watched practice can give their best guess. One paper, Willis has an advantage in that he has played. He ahs had to study film and is use to reading defenses. He knows the speed of the game and is use to terminologies. These are advantages that transcend athletic ability. He may or may not make the top two. If he doesn't, then it indicates some issues that are not well known. I would suspect Willis would be a top two with ease based on experience and knowledge.

Now that is an opinion completely without evidence as I have not seen the QBs in action this year.

how about texas state? haha if he does transfer, he wont have the good enough learning curve to learn the system fast enough to start for that team since camps have been in session for almost 3 weeks. if he is smart, he stays here and learn under JJ, and maybe he'll get a shot when a freshman messes up.

Probably wouldn't come here because of the philosophy of the coaching staff. They have been limiting the number of FBS transfers because they are trying to build a program through straight up recruiting and not loading up the team with transfers. Yes we have a few, most of the transfers recently however have been from JUCO programs and not from FBS schools.
