[QUOTE="Gtswifty81, post: 675532, member: 4428"] The best two QBs we basically had in spring practice last year were Lucas Johnson and Tobias Oliver since Graham had to regain academic eligibility. I think Tobias ended up injured as well. At the end of the season the two who weren’t at spring practice (Graham/Yates) ended up 1/2 on the depth chart. This year we should have Graham/Yates/Gleason/and Sims at spring practice. Whoever wins the job in the fall, should be in a significantly better position than where we were starting the season last year, but multiple QBs will likely get a shot during the season if no one separates themselves from the pack. While it is unlikely a freshman QB will come in and turn our offense around, look at what Sam Howell did at UNC: 3347 yds, 60.3%, 35 Tds, 7 int Now Compared to Tech: 1607 yds, 46.1% completion, 14 TDs, 10 int Now 1996 Georgia Tech Stats (Joe’s first year, 1 less game): 1862 yds, 55.6%, 9 TDs, 16 int The Tech QBs threw less interceptions than I expected this year but it’s the completion percentage that needs significant improvement. The O-line should be much better staring next year which will help, but our QBs need to hit at least 55% of the passes to help sustain drives. I think all four of our QBs have the tools to get it done. I personally have liked Gleason since he committed but Yates and Graham should have the edge with their experience. [/QUOTE]
