Do you burn his redshirt for the playoffs? Redshirt next season?

Also I've never missed Broadus so much.
 
Don't burn his redshirt.That's my vote.If we were going to burn it,it would have been today.
He will come in as #2 next year most likely.
 
Only thing is he doesn't dress normally so even if they wanted to play him today they couldn't.

Personally I wouldn't burn it either.

I agree, we have many more injury problems than just QB. Tough break this year. Go with what's left.
 
I suspect we burn the shirt. The whole season has gone down in flames, why not this as well?
 
If they burn the kids red shirt, then we should be firing more than just the special teams coach.
 
My comment was in jest. But the issue with red shirting is that it often doesn't help the coach. How many are around in 5 years? And if the player is a stud you have to worry about the grad transfer rule. The NCAA effed it up.

Is Mancuso ahead of Johnson? It doesn't seem like it. Burn Johnson's shirt instead and see what he can do. I don't see how we win with Clise or Chenault.
 
Agree, use Johnson and see what happens. He can redshirt next year. I think that gives us the best chance to win. I do think that we still have an awfully good O line meaning we can run. Just need enough pass to keep the D honest. I think we can advance using mainly run next week. After that, we need a QB who can throw it down the field.
 
Then why suspend him and not kick him off the team? He's a senior so there is no next year for him.
 
Fair enough. I'm not sure i take it literally. When Plan A is the best Quarterback in program history and he just tore up his knee, Plan B isn't going to be favorable, no matter what it is.
 
There's a difference between not having a favorable plan and not having any plan. 8 days is a long time. None of us at work could say that with 8 days that we couldn't come up with an option.
 
I don't know anything about Mancuso, but maybe he's not ready. Why are you sure that he is any better than Clise or the Goochland kid?
 
Hopefully, once reality sets in that we're in the playoffs and a new season starts tomorrow, Rocco will consider ALL of his available options. If the best option is Clise or Chenault, great. If it's Johnson, I hope he re-evaluates his thinking.

Or Broadus. He could re-think that.

Moliva is right - we don't need all those red shirts, especially if 2017 we expect it to be Lauletta-Clise.
 
Not to be too down, but if we can't stop the run, it doesn't matter who plays QB.
 
Can't get past he pay wall on my phone. Why are we afraid to burn one of oUr RS if we have two people doing it? Can RS one of them next year....doesn't make sense to put a walk on true fr QB in over ONEof these two guys.
 
Rocco has a week to figure out who can deliver a ball to Brown, Hudson, Wilkins, et al.

Stephen Jacob had two horrible drops today - one which was intercepted just prior to the targeting sequence.

We have 8 quarterbacks on our roster. Only one of them is a senior, and he's apparently not being considered for reasons the coach won't even make public.

Johnson played last year, so he would not be able to redshirt again. I get the hesitation, but this is our season here. Gotta do everything possible to keep it alive. I don't think we can run our way to a victory in the playoffs with Clise at QB, and it's a big ask of Chenault to step in as a freshman walkon. Johnson was a highly regarded recruit and has two full years in the system. He can run, too. Let's see what we have here.
