Per Glusco:
Upside: Good size and pedigree as a 6-4, 215-pound former 4-star recruit. Got some experience with 5 starts in place of injured veteran Tanner Morgan. Best outing came in win over Wisconsin, when he went 19-for-29 for 319 yards and 2 TDs. Showed some running skills with 34 carries for 140 yards over 11 appearances.
Downside: Mediocre numbers spelling Morgan, with more picks (4) than TDs (3) thrown. Outside of Wisconsin game, didn’t do much as a passer as Fleck rode RB Mo Ibrahim. So he’s still unproven as a leader and decision-maker in the clutch.

Minnesota: Athan Kaliakmanis
Hold on job: 100% … PJ Fleck hasn’t mentioned a competition. He’s too busy pumping up his new starter.Upside: Good size and pedigree as a 6-4, 215-pound former 4-star recruit.

The upside and downside of every QB1 in the Big Ten
With so many newcomers and unknowns taking over QB1 roles around the Big Ten, a breakdown of projected starters' plusses and minuses seems in order.
