[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 740000, member: 4572"] I mean... Bo Nix also finished the year 84th in passing efficiency, tied for 68th in passing touchdowns, 65th in passing yards, and finished 101st in PFF’s 2019 QB rankings. For all intents and purposes, he was an extremely average QB and one of the worst in the SEC. He just happened to play for a pretty good team with a pretty stout defense. His backup, Joey Gatewood, put up good numbers in his extremely limited playing time, and will probably be Kentucky’s starter next year. Bo Nix made one throw on a Hail Mary to win the Oregon game, and that throw cemented his job for the remainder of the year. I wouldn’t really call Bo Nix the poster boy for “sticking with one guy.” If anything, he’s a great example of giving other guys a chance to prove themselves. Just think about most of the great college QBs over the last 5 years. Almost all of them split playing time, or didn’t play at all early in their careers: Trevor Lawrence, Justin Fields, Tua, Baker Mayfield, Jacob Eason, Jake Fromm (yeah, ik he sucked last year), Kyle Trask, Sam Darnold, Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, Deshaun Watson, Patrick Mahomes, and on and on. There’s really no reason to expect the guy that takes the first snap against FSU to continue being the guy, and I hope everyone gets the chance to prove themselves as the only guy that deserves to take snaps.
