Luke Carney

I don’t think so. I think if there is not notable improvement by Pittsburgh, then we make the change the following week.

Two weeks of practice should show which of the 3 is best prepared to spit on Pitt.

Well we have to hope that Angeli's recovery goes well first and also that another school doesn't poach him if healthy. Lots of moving parts but yeah there would be no way Carney waits around for three seasons.

Now it may not happen but what if Carney came in showed great poise and won games. Why does everyone think Angeli would automatically win the job back. Angeli was really coming into his own but no one knows what Carney can do in live action.

Not sure this is true. I’m sure Ricky looks great in practice but it does not translate to live action.

I'd like to see him get at least one possession per half, preferably 3-4 for the game.
Give him a shot. Rickie's still #1, but we want our "backup" to have some experience.

If Rickie's improved and does well against Pitt then this may not happen again until the BC game.
If Rickie still struggles and Luke is looking good then they can try it again at GA Tech (I'll be there ).
If things don't improve at GA Tech then give Luke the reins on Halloween, or split it 50/50.

Luke can't start at Miami or ND if he hasn't gotten more experience and shown his skills.

I wouldn’t be too sure - ask Uncle Cook how Collins looks in practice
