Eh, must have been a fruedian slip considering every outlook I’ve read since February has UF taking it all this year.

I have never been a fan of the 2 QB system, however, in college football today you need to have a quality back up.

I’m with Adam on the one and done wagon if I had to choose. A two QB system does not allow for chemistry. There is always one that thinks they should get more time than the other, plus you have each QB scared to make a mistake because he could not see a series the rest of the game because of it.

VT was lucky because they could adapt their system to the differing styles that Glennon and Tyrod played. But I think you should recruit QB’s that fit your system, unless your are RichRod who will take what he can get his first year.

BTW Adam, LSU won it last year not UF

That’s a good question Big Head, but seeing as though Florida won a NC even with a banged up Tebow by year’s end and VT didn’t, I’m more inclined to go with the “one and done” outlook.

Something to ponder; Would you rather have a 2-QB system, similar to what VTech ran in ‘07, or one excellent QB with an unproven backup (Florida)?

Tebow has been banged up and you could have seen the season go to the crapper if that busted hand came a couple of weeks earlier. Glennon/Tire Rod Taylor obviously aren’t in the class of Tebow, but if one went down (as we saw), VTech was able to replace one decent QB with another decent QB with a total different skill set.

Just a thought. And I’m not advicating the 2-QB system…especially with Chase Daniel at the helm.
