I think he's done a great job and I would think he would roll into the fall as the No. 1 guy.
On any given day a guy can look great or poor. We'll keep rolling them in and out the entire spring. That's something we won't change no matter how good or bad anybody looks.
I'm almost certain it's going to roll right into (fall) camp as far as trying to narrow it down a little bit.
It may even roll into a little of the season before you can really be sure because when you get to the point of who you think it is, and he's the man, how will he handle being that guy? It's just hard to say when it will finally settle.
We're just rolling them and evaluating them. We're rotating them as equally as we can.
We're hoping by the time we roll around in the fall we could take that variable of 'How much does a guy really know?' out of it. If he is struggling with the learning of it, he is probably not going to play. If he understands it, now it is more of a competition.
I would think he is going to roll into the fall as the No. 1 guy. I still haven't seen anything to make me think we shouldn't do that.
We just had to hang on for dear life today. It's not fun to see your boys go down. I also have to give a lot of credit to Arkansas. I tried to tell everyone how fast they were.
We might have the only kickoff team in the country that doesn't have any linebackers running down there,
We certainly found some kinks in our armor tonight. It was a typical Southeastern Conference game and a typical Georgia-South Carolina game.
We control our destiny still. That's where you want to be.
I've tried to keep it simple for him and just say, 'Protect the ball and relax,' ... I don't expect him not to have pregame jitters or not have a ball spray on him here or there. That's happened to every player I've coached. It's hard to get in a groove until you've played enough plays. I'm confident that once he gets into a groove, he will be a heck of a quarterback for us.
I've seen a guy have an ACL (injury), then on the first day back, he blows it again, ... Then they repair it again and he goes on to 10 years in the NFL. Sometimes they take better than others.
I've never lost a game for H-O-R-S-E yet at my house,
