[QUOTE="MWBATL, post: 490420, member: 944"] I notice that around the country a number of freshmen have won starting QB and have impacted their teams seasons as a result. Perkins at UVa is an excellent example, but there are a few others as well. I am not saying it happens all the time, but it definitely happens....everywhere except GT. Even when we seem to have a quality athlete at QB like JeT we don't seem to start them until their junior season. Is this a "hidden" downside to our offense? Is it so complicated that when we do get a quality QB that we need to spend 2 years training them in its intricacies before they see the field? Or, have we just been unsuccessful in getting a QB that has the skills of a kid like Perkins? I will admit, it does make me wonder whether a simpler offense that would allow a Perkins type kid (Jet, maybe Graham?) to start early and use their athleticism has some appeal for me. Even with acknowledging that CPJ's offense has been a good thing for GT and allowed us to over-achieve compared to pure recruiting rankings... [/QUOTE]
