STrib: Gophers set on Nelson, Leidner at QB but much of Big Ten scrambling

[BleedGopher]

per Joe Christensen:

It’ll be Nelson’s job as long as he stays healthy and performs, but the Gophers like the way Leidner has developed, adding surprising speed to go with his strong arm.

“I think it’s very similar to our situation at Northern Illinois when I was there with Chandler Harnish and Jordan Lynch,” Kill said. “I think it’s healthy. [Nelson and Leidner] get along well, and we’ll need both of them to be productive before it’s all over.”

The decision will say a lot about Wisconsin’s new offensive philosophy. Stave is a pocket passer, and Phillips runs pretty well when healthy, but McEvoy is a dual-threat quarterback who would have fit well in Andersen’s system at Utah State.

“It will be a three-man race,” Andersen said. “I have no timeline on it. And we may jog out there the first play of the game with two quarterbacks on the field and see what happens.”

Someone once said when you have three quarterbacks, you actually don't have one.

Husker, that statement reminds me of what my elderly neighbor lady used to say to my Mom when she wanted one of us boys for some small chores. She would tell my Mom, "I just want one of your boys because when you send one boy, I get one boy. When you send two boys, I get a half a boy. When you send three boys, I get no boys at all."
