2017: Cajuns quarterback quandary continues

[Turbine]

This shouldn't even be a topic.

We have seen both starting quarterbacks excel this season.

It is up to the coaches to come up with a game plan that takes advantage of their already proven abilities.

I thought Dion Rey was our 3rd QB!!!!! If HUD won't consider starting Rey now that he is in a bind, that tells me all I need to know. HUD is keeping a player at the QB position that can't throw and telling everyone he is the 3rd QB, but can't play him when he needs him in a normal situation that doesn't involve the Wildcat!!!!

If they take the Red Shirt off of Lewis, that is being nothing but selfish on HUD's part.

I believe Ray refuses to play anything but QB

Spot on. Better OL play does wonders for a QB.

Then he should not play at all. I always thought that a requirement to play QB was the ability to throw a football and be able to complete at least 10% of those passes!

Neither starting Offensive Tackle nor the backup RT got it done....

There is one positive about our QB play this year. Yes, picks have been thrown, but at the same time, this this year's QBs have thrown the ball away a lot more compared to last season where that was a foreign concept.

Exactly, you tell him he’s playing another position to give him more playing time to help the team. If he quits, that’s on him imo.

Hud has stated Ray is a wildcat QB. That's his role on the team. There is nothing wrong with knowing your role on the team and playing it. Having said that I'd like to see them add more to the play book with option plays when Ray is in.

I think Hud will pull Levi's redshirt. That's my gut feeling. It isn't just that we have our 1 and 2 ding'd up. I think Hud is desperate to see if it can spark something for this team. Even though our OL is heavily responsible for Nunez and JD's limitations... Levi is a more elusive running style QB. That element often compensates for OL issues. Hud knows that... plus... when you cannot coach... an athletic QB can mask up to 60% of your inadequacies. When the head coach indicts the QB play... as if it's disconnected from everything else in the program... you have to realize he's a simpleton. And I predict the simpleton will choose to pull Levi's redshirt.
