[QUOTE="skygusty_rivals, post: 129274490, member: 1500287"] It sounded like Chugs was the second quarterback in the Spring game. If Crest is the athlete that people say that he is, do you want him sitting on the bench the whole season if Howard is getting it done at QB? That seems like a pretty expensive insurance policy. This team does not have the depth of other BIG12 teams. You have to roll the dice and put the best players on the field. Howard is a hell of a lot more durable than Trickett, who was always one hit away from getting knocked out of the game. As far as Crest goes, he may think that a lot more players get drafted who get playing time than backup quarterbacks who never play. Put the dude on the field. If Howard AND Crest go down then we have to lean on OTHER players who are here on scholarships too, at least that is Huggins philosophy, who expects his backups to step up. [/QUOTE]
