Message: [QUOTE="SoBristol, post: 96186, member: 485"] The UConn and Cincy QBs (the starter at UConn; Munchie for Cincy in our game) could be running threats in the same way as Nassib could be. But each of these teams also had a back up/change of pace QB who was their run-first QB (and for Cincy, it was their 3rd string guy). And each of these back-ups managed to put up key yardage against us. I don't agree with the "close games" theory. UConn and Cincy have had close games as well -- they used their back-up QBs as weapons when the game against SU was close. It comes back to coaching priorities (Marrone seeing the need for a running QB -- and then going the JUCO route for skill players), and success in recruiting a useful QB (vs. what we have in Loeb, Miller, Kinder).
