I saw the quarterbacks a couple times in practice...very limited opportunities for them and not enough input for me to declare positive evaluations but for what it is worth.... On those days, Mitch was clearly the best overall quarterback. Rhoda was the second best...despite Tracy's ham handed comment about Croft redshirting and throwing his Offensive coordinator under the bus after he said Rhoda won the the backup position...that's what I saw...Rhoda number two not Croft. Of those two who has the most potential? Clearly Croft does in my opinion...but Rhoda as the OC said is more consistent. Croft could be real good...or not, hard to tell without knowing lots of things. He clearly looks impressive at times. Green was effective but is unorthodox so that's hard to judge in a short time. Claeys has touted him several times this fall as improving a lot. He's the biggest of the three. Williams must be the quickest guy on the team...awesome feet...great punt return, bubble screen, swing pass receiver...get him in space...but he had absolutely no idea where his passes were going to end up...very very inaccurate.
So, overall... Mitch just hasn't played well this year ...certainly one of these guys including Rhoda can play at the level Mitch has played at or higher next year. So the idea from some we will go backwards next year because one of these guys has to play quarterback and we are doomed is folly. Rhoda was solid on the road in his first and only opportunity. We'll be fine at quarterback...our standard is not very high the last however many years. And any one of these guys given the opportunity can blossom and prove he is the guy we have been waiting for. Of course I believe that there is such a thing as gamers...so that's a whole other thread.
