Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 4429793, member: 44"] True, but those weren’t his only passes in this weekend wasn’t his only game. Zion shows a lot of the weaknesses you would expect from a true freshman quarterback. He tends to lock onto one receiver and has been missing open people. His touch has been far from perfect and he has overthrown people regularly. Again, though, that’s to be expected for a freshman quarterback. In spite of all of that, he has led us to bowl eligibility. He has improved every week and it is probably reasonable to think that trend will continue. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying he should be anointed as quarterback for life, and there absolutely should be an open competition for QB next year, but I think the position is Turners to lose, particularly if he makes a normal sophomore jump. If we end up going to a bowl game, Zion, in particular, is going to benefit from those extra weeks of practice. We are fortunate to have him. [/QUOTE]
