its funny when he throws out these once a generation situations, then caveats them by saying "now I'm not saying this situation is that one..."
Well what the hell ARE you saying then?
Once a generation? The Kresser example? You are saying that it is rare for a talented QB to be riding the bench because there is another talented QB ahead of them?
In my previous post I listed the FSU QBs from 1987 to 2000. Most of that list is talented QBs that sat on the bench until their junior or senior season because there was a talented QB in front of them.
Jacob Coker transferred to Alabama because he couldn't get on the field at FSU. Coker won a NC.
Troy Smith won a Heisman at OSU. He didn't become the starting QB until his third season and he only got the position then because the guy in front of him got hurt.
I can come up with examples all day. That's hardly a once in a generation situation.
