Funny how Stoops would make that call before the new OC was even on campus. Let's say Stoops called him the front runner leading into Spring. In either case, I doubt Barker starts if we bring in one of these highly rated transfers- regardless of how you perceive someone else's word and its finality.
A QB with experience and talent like Davis would likely start over a very young and inexperienced player like Barker.
I could think of a few reasons why a QB would come here. Hinshaw, Gran, Spread, offensive weapons (Boom, Badet, Baker, Johnson, Horton, CJ Conrad, Kemp, King, Bone, Greenwood, Timmons, etc...), SEC, keys to the car, etc.
Also, I said arguably, and just because opinions differ doesn't mean one is wrong.
