Higgins. He's more productive and has longer to play.
Higgins. 289 yards in passing, and other than the stupid mistake, he played a solid game for a RS FR.
Come on. I told you a million times not to exxagerate! He is barely serviceable right now. I hope he does get to "stud" level, but I don't see that. He has terrible accuracy for one.Quote:

This season is over. Just put all the names in a hat and pick one.
Give the kid some receivers and watch out. He has a nice arm and makes good decisions. Pretty nice wheels too. I do see a tendency to take chances, but he'll figure that out. I like him!!Quote:

Agreed. Based on what I saw today (other than the fumble), I'd stay with Higgins.Quote:

If Kenneth Dixon doesn't fumble the game away at the end on the 5-yd line, everybody would be talking about how GREAT Higgins played.

Young didn't play. He has bruised ribs, so the comparison is moot for now. It is Higgins or Harris. Higgins makes too many mistakes to deserve 100% of the PT at QB.
......not the first time you've been wrong. :icon_wink:Quote:

I'm not wrong Mike. You are. Just like you were wrong when Cameron was inexperienced and on the 17 year old "phenom QB" Ishom, and others. But this is typical of a first year LA Tech coach- sacrifice season #1 to stick 100% with a FR QB and build for next year. I'm not saying bench Higgins, just don't give him 100% of the snaps in every game.
