that means you better have a good QB2. We didn't this year and that can't happen again. If Angeli can't be a real good QB2 next year or if you can get a big time QB into the program, go for it.
Word is they've already been looking. I think that is a good thing. We are a very appealing, top 5-10 type program with most all the pieces for next year to be a great year if we get very good QB play. May as well throw the line in and see what bites.
