I said earlier that Graham might end up our QB on athletic ability alone. He can do pretty much what he wants on a football field. I see people saying things about his running. Look at his high school film; he can run like the wind. While I think it would have been a photo finish, I think that, if Paul had stayed, Graham would have beat Tobias out to start. And both of them would have been more successful; they - and the rest of the O - knew what they were doing.
But … now James is a red-shirt soph in his first start in a new O. He will disappoint. That is usually what happens in this situation. The only thing that worries me is that Paternaude will remove him and put in Tobias if the team doesn't move. At this point, we need to settle on a starter and stick with him for an entire game, whatever the result. Musical QBs must stop. If James lays an egg, then either work with him hard next week or start Tobias against Puke.
Btw, I also see suggestions that Tobias move to WR or something. I can see the argument but, no. Repeat: NO. We need two QBs with game experience and James and Tobias are the only two on offer. James has already been sidelined once.
