Interesting quote
"The backup quarterback will be Treon Harris going into this game," Muschamp said. "There was really no separation from a backup standpoint. That's nothing that's been made for the long term, no one has been redshirted. All of those guys have done some good things and we're going to move forward week to week there."

Good. Now Grier can redshirt like he said he planned to do.

Seems like DC nailed it when he said he thought Treon would get the nod based on their ability to use him at other positions for right now. No separation yet from a QB standpoint. Looking forward to seeing him in action.

Will Grier be redshirted now?

There is no more suspense, Slevin. This isn't the GSMB. You can hover right over the title and see what's in the first post. You don't have to click on the thread.

According to the tweeter feed, no talk of redshirting yet. But Muschamp listed Harris, Jackson, Sharpe, Tabor Willis, Wilson and Worton as Freshmen who will play Saturday.

Morgan Moriarty also is confirming statements that Muschamp is stating coaching staff hasn't discussed redshirting anyone yet.

I hope that we make it through the season unscathed, especially at the QB position. If we do lose JD, however, I'd expect WG to be available and getting reps in practice and games. I hope Grier's mindset toward redshirting hasn't changed since getting involved in the competition and going through practice. I hope he can continue to work at improving, looking toward the future and be content with this decision.

I'm not sure this means much, because if JD goes down I expect a rotation between Treon and Grier.

Interesting...either Harris is better or our coach is trying to sneak Grier an extra year. JD hasn't finished a season yet. Stupid crap as usual.

So what should he have said? That Grier is the starter?

Redshirts aren't handed out until the end of the year, so it doesn't matter what happens right now. He could say Grier is redshirting and put it on a billboard, but he won't if Driskel gets hurt. Come on, people, learn how the system works.

"No separation," though, and no redshirt yet for Grier. "Week to week."

Interesting.

No, that if Grier really is the 2nd best QB and gives us a better chance that he is the back up. What the freak don't you understand? Driskel is made of glass. You think JD makes it through the SEC the whole year?

It is true that redshirts aren't handed out until the end of the year, doesn't mean that the staff might not have their mind already made on which players are being planned to redshirt or not.
