The quicker he gets on the field the quicker HB's learning curve is over, all QBs have them. If he is what most think he is, the sooner the better IMO. We've seen JG peak out, there's not going to be a lot of improvement, he is what he is and where he is. Shrout and Maurer had the chance as freshman last year to take the team and run with it, neither were up to the task. HB if CJP and Chaney think he's ready need to get him on the field this next campaign no matter when it takes place IMO. Many schools including Bama, OU, and OSUhave no problem starting elite freshman at the QB position. It seems we have Debbie Downers at UT that screech the moment ANY freshman starts at any position and IMO they should be ignored, if a youngster comes in and can play better than his competition, get him out there.
