I think the reason behind redshirting him is so we can have him the year after J'Mar leaves.

Allen has it and needs to start in 2019 but it will never happen .
I'm pretty confident we will begin to see Elliott on the field beginning with either the Rice or Southern Miss game.
Coach said after Southern game that if J'Mar hadn't gotten hurt - Westin would have come in - but the plan was to go with Allen if the game was out of reach.
You know your QB is not good when the announcers of your game get into a conversation regard the backup........that literally never happens.
So, everyone sees it other than the head coach.
Not sure why Westin would sit another year, if he truly believes he has an opportunity to win the job in spring - maybe; otherwise who could blame him for not transferring like Abraham. Gonna sit a year either way. If Holtz does give Allen & Elliot a shit I’m guessing one of the two bolts. If Smith was getting it done then this isn’t a discussion. I certainly hope our coaches expect better play but feel like their best option to finish this year is Smith with hopes that Elliot & Allen will be viable options next year
Some of this crappola needs to be in the private The Hall of Fame BoaRD forum.
We are 6-2, have 4 games left with hopeful improvement to come, and are bowl qualified.
You're right PawDawg according to what Skip said in the radio show today. Did any one listen to the 97.7 radio show today @ 6pmCST? Skip talked about Elliott. Said he has been getting more reps in practice, and alluded that they are grooming him to get series where they can in the last four games. (that's what I took away)
So I think that we will see Elliott come in when necessary in the next four games. If current QB1 is competitive at all, this is a good thing. Competition makes us better in football, business, everything.
