The kid I would be willing to bet if you asked him wants to play right now, what freshman doesn't. Early playing time is on every kids mind...and how is that not in the kid's best interest? What if you put him on the 2 deep and it so happens Hunt's helmet comes off, who goes in...Wilson, Mahoney or the kid on the 2 deep that earned it? Do you tell him to get sit when he earned the spot? What does that do to his confidence, his relationship with the coaches. You don't put a kid on the 2-deep if you do not expect him to play. It's pretty simple. If he isn't going to play, then you announce the redshirt and sit him like AJ did last year until 82 QB's get hurt and he is forced into action. [/QUOTE]
