Sounds like Roper is saying they will name the backup QB soon and it will be who they think gives us the best chance to win if Driskel was to miss time.
 
This would better than not naming the backup quarterback...

Exactly - he seemed to brush off the questions about the backup being someone that will be used on certain plays even when Driskel is healthy.

Link?
 
Well they said they want it done before game week which is next week so yeah...they better name one soon.

I wonder if maybe the coaches thought Harris might be able to help out at slot. The interesting thing about that is we seemed to be fine as far as numbers go at slot and the coaches and observers all said they performed well for the most part. Maybe this will play a role in them going with Grier instead since we have Pittman, Bailey, Thompson, Worton and Debose looking good at slot. Who knows.

Fin, you misunderstood my comment and actually according to open practice observations he did take several reps in the slot.

Harris weighs 170 lbs and he strapped his Gator helmet on for the first time two weeks ago. We also have about 8 decent receivers. We also know he'll likely have to step up when Driskel gets hurt and can't have him dinged up. There is no way Harris plays receiver also.

I can see reading comprehension is not a strong suit for certain members of this board....

Reading comprehension is not the issue here. Argument/thesis construction more likely. First sentence (should open with a point or thesis)- proposing Harris might have been considered for slot position. Got it. Second sentence - The numbers don't make sense for that to happen.. okk got it. Third sentence - this is where you should close, re-emphasizing your thesis but instead you reiterate the lack of need to use him at slot because we have numbers there... further contradicting your opening postulation. Add on to that the fact you suggest they go with Grier because of "this" and we're back to proposing Harris may be getting looked at closely for slot. You're all over the place with the paragraph bud.

    #MeToo. I think the early line was nuts though. Nobody has blown Miami out, their 2 losses were very close, and they've beaten some very good teams (aTm, Notre Dame) and Ole Miss was nearly a Miami blow out. They don't have a good defense, they have an elite defense and it's a home game for them. Kinda remind me of our 2006 defense, minus the Eraser in the backfield. If Miami can run the ball behind that big OL, this will be a close game (like the Indiana-Penn State game). Of course I hope whatever sorcery Cignetti uses gives us an utter domination and humiliation of the 'Canes.
    And dont forget the mighty Gators.

    Uncertain on the odds of the size of the wang in question. But am certain that Cignetti's is massive. Indiana wins it all. Cinderella Story. Fuch Miami.
