I agree about taking a second QB. Its just how do you know that any QB we are recruiting would come in and start from day 1? Also given CBJ offensive scheme, wouldn't a guy who could run the read option like a dream be the better choice?

Read-option does not equate the need of a run first QB. We need a QB that can keep the defense honest, but as I said that only comes out to around 5 rushes a game. We run a read-option but the ball is designed to go to the RB the vast majority of the time.
I don't want any of the possible QB's we take this year starting, there is history behind kids that start their true-freshman year being stunted the rest of their career. This would be even more true for a QB like Gibson whom would make bad habits his first year -scrambling too much- that would be hard to break through the rest of his career.
No need at all for the read option if there's only one option.. Look at the teams that run it and are successful.
Look at CBJ's teams of the past and you'll see I'm right. QB needs to be athletic enough to keep the ball maybe 5 times a game. The read-option is just the set that Butch likes to use.
I don't know what about this is so hard for y'all to understand. Just look at what CBJ has had his teams do before coming to UT, it would be good for some of you.

Alright, which few QBs do we have a legit shot at right now? Things seem to be heating up in a hurry. opcorn:
I'm guessing UT doesn't want to get jerked around by TG and then stood up at the alter come NSD when TG says he is deciding.
TG honestly isn't playing this right. Schools like to lock their QB in early, not on NSD. TG could mess around and dartboard Top 5 his way out of ideal schools.
This guy's tape from his Soph year is strong. Better natural passer without a doubt, IMAO.

See that's the thing. I think CBJ and Bajak like to mix in read option packages but their history point to preferring a strong passer that can also run.
This guy isn't unathletic at all. In fact, his shuttle time (4.15s SPARQ confirmed) is better than Gibson's (4.38s SPARQ).
For reference, Johnny Manziel ran a 4.03s shuttle and that's the 2nd fastest QB shuttle time since 2006.
Dormady's shuttle time compares favorably to Christian Ponder, Tyrod Taylor and Russel Wilson.
Except those guys were much older when they ran theirs. I don't know when Dormady's SPARQ figures were run but SPARQ has him at 6'4 and 210 with those times and that's pretty impressive.
What happened in Cincy is irrelevant to what he is doing now. We ran the read option set quite a bit last year. A true DT QB like Gibson will keep the defense honest and lead to some huge plays. I still don't get why some people cannot understand why Gibson has been CBJ top priority for awhile.
