Totally agree, but unless the coach thinks we can win. 7 of our last 8 games, we aren’t making the playoffs so why not get experience to the younger guys?

Yeah... It's a tough call. Is it worth it to play the young guys and go winless this season? A zero win season looks pretty bad, but the QB 2 is a senior, so his experience doesn't do is any good after Thanksgiving this year.

And just when we need them to step up, the defense falls apart.

Mobile QBs tough to beat late in game.
Embrace the pace of the race.

Well our “back up” QB scored more points in a half of football than we did in the first three games with our “starter”. I don’t see how the coaches see the difference in the two. Our offense just jell better with Johnson and hopefully he’ll have two full weeks of reps with the first team. Lawson, you’re right. Don’t take to get experience, play out so we can get above .500 and help recruiting.

The fact Sampson was the starter makes me seriously worry about the coaching staff’s decision making.

Where would they be if Johnson is the QB to start the season? The season is already shot now.

Well, Johnson tried to get us back into it. I thought he did a decent job, considering. I'd like to see him be the starter come conference season, but who knows? I'm not a coach, but I sure can't see what they see about Sampson that they think is better than this guy. :?
