I, like a whole lotta other folks, don't believe that the eventual starting QB is on campus yet. I pray that Marshall is as good as advertised and we can redshirt JJ. If not, I'm expecting a very long year.
A couple of things. One stat for Marshall that scares me is more interceptions (20) than TDs (18). Don't know how or why that happened but he bettah learn what color jerseys we wear.
Also, from everything I read or hear, it really does sound like Malzahn is keeping all options open at QB until he sees the incoming guys. Hard to think either one would be ready after 4 weeks but he may think Wallace and Frayzha really are that bad and he's hoping against hope.
Now, I'm far from an expert in being able to break down offenses etc. But, it appears to me that Johnson should be able to pick it up quickly from what I've seen on film of him. Everything out of the gun. He distributes it quickly and makes all the throws and he can definitely take off when needed. Don't know how similar the offenses are, if at all. But I can see JJ running the show sooner than later.
With my ringing endorsement, he's sure to flop.
