A key fork in the road for JJ?

Postby Hoop Fan » Sun Oct 25, 2009 6:54 pm

Does he push forward with BLM and in the process now waste Padron's redshirt, or does he change horses (he's been known to do that) and start to really develop Padron? To me, this season is only a success with BLM if we make a bowl. If BLM goes the rest of the way, plays mediocre and we don't go to a bowl game, it really will have been a setback of a year for the qb position if BLM does not improve and if we flush the redshirt on a player with alot of potential.

Tough call. I guess it all depends on the doctor's reports on BLM and, ultimately, how much he trusts Padron. Tulsa is gonna be a challenge no matter who the QB is. If we know anything about June Jones, it's to expect the unexpected. There's no telling what he will do.

If BLM can play he will play, if not Padron will play though there may be several situations that Bradon comes in. It does not look all that mysterious to me.

Expect the unexpected with June Jones? Are you kidding?

He's going with BLM until he has to be carted off on a stretcher. He has been completely unwavering in his devotion to BLM.

Agree to a point, but maybe June sees his chance to make a switch and still save face...say Bo is too hurt to play...give Padron a shot against Tulsa...if he plays well, then he can easily justify staying with him...if not, he can go back to his lil buddy Bo.

Is this fork in the road anything like the Slauson Cutoff.
