Hudspeth in no hurry to name a starting quarterback

[RaisingCajun08]

Only if 1 guy can't distance himself from the other, like last year. Obviously hud wants a clear cut #1. Hopefully he, and we will get that

Hopefully so but it does not look good so far. Davis has a year up plus in game experience. If he really is the guy that everyone thinks, he should have distanced himself by now.

You guys don't get it, Hud wants Nixon to be our QB anybody else is fighting uphill.

[SlickRick]

He didn't have a problem keeping Blaine on the bench after TB saw the field as starter. So, you can't say this is a trend. He saw TB as a better option than Blaine, even after Blaine had a tremendous Jr. season and winning the NOLA bowl MVP.

So, I have to believe he's not convinced in Jordan. That's nothing but wanting to be sure our best option is on the field against Boise St. Either the competition is close due to poor play, or due to equal good play. Hoping for the latter.

How about this for a trend: QBs and an alarming number of the other "great recruits" do not develop and often regress in this sytem.

I think something we didn't and still don't quite know about... infected things over a stretch of time... leading into our program being jacked up last year. I'm 50/50 on whether Hud has that aspect under control. Too many people called it a natural down year... but I think it was a system management issue. I know your average fan has his head wound around "the QB"... I'm more eager to see if I spot significant coaching improvements from the balance of play this year.

Hud does need to know that a #1 QB needs to be chosen once the season starts, regardless of how close #2 did in the competition. And he cannot, absolutely cannot use a 2 QB system this year. Pulling #1 has to be because he outright failed or he's injured. I hope Hud knows that.

Jordan Davis will be the starter, book it!

We probably all know that... but "the starter" needs to be allowed to start and finish without looking over his shoulder. The competition has to end before the start of the season this year.

An improved defense will be worth at least a couple more wins in this conference. I'd love to see the Cajuns score TDs by the bundle, but have to stop people early on to give these green QBs a chance to develop and win.

QB is not the problem. Davis will run an efficient offense that HUD wants to run. Defense has always been the problem. One of the worst in the country

Defense was not the problem last year.

He has an advantage of being here for two years but he doesn't have a year of more playing experience . Davis played sparingly last year and that's putting it mildly. He still has a long way to go to learning the ropes of a starter and leader.

Everybody figures this. The problem is why is Hud not willing to name the starter now moving forward so the ship is settled and he has time to develop chemistry with his offense? Hud mentioned that he wanted to name a starter in the spring rather than wait it out like he did last year but he seems to be doing the same thing.
