No. QBs benched typically don't turn out great is what I was getting at.

These 3 had amazing college careers? I beg to differ

The notion that the coaches chose Retzlaff so he must be better than Bohanan is also faulty.

These are the same coaches that may never have played Tyler Allgeier as RB

Goliath

Could be. JRetz knows the playbook better & that might be the deciding factor.

Point is, even the best coaches sometimes get the qb starter wrong, and live games are very different than practice

Yes

I'm sure you can also point to QB's who got benched and it also caused them to

I'm not sure you really want guys like that leading the team

Goliath

Sep 7, 6:33pm

Then you are going to run out of options. In college you have to build most guys

SUAVO

Sep 7, 6:37pm

No. It's done dozens of times every year

Goliath

Sep 7, 6:42pm

Not much outside of teams that are already elite in every other area

SUAVO

Sep 7, 6:52pm

Disagree. There's plenty of examples outside of that

Goliath

Sep 7, 7:13pm

Disagree

SUAVO

If they're that fragile they won't be leading the team.

Most young kids are which is why they say if you have 2 QB's you really don't

If coaches feel like it's worth it to get him to work out the issues then thats

How do you think the locker room feels about having a QB that turns the ball

russkiejedi

'cycle through quarterbacks"... drama much?

Goliath

Sep 7, 7:34pm

What is your next step if Bohannon does similar things?

SUAVO

Sep 7, 7:40pm

Bingo

Hurts was benched in the National Championship game
