Quarterback position


From watching the quarterbacks a bit. Here is my take. I believe as it seems to be written that it is two horse race. And I believe it is going to be one heck of a race at that. Evans and Motley both look to really want the job and both are showing lots of promise. Will take time to learn the system, but both have the tools. The two of them have this great energy about them and seem to both want the job badly. They both have great body language and are showing leadership amongst peers. I think we will be in good shape with the two of them.
Now to the negative aspects of things. It just seems to me that Lawson just doesn't want to be here. You can tell it in his body language. Just doesn't have that excitement to him that the other two have. Add with that a couple weeks ago he spent atleast an hour rolling sideways (barrel roll) and jogging laps around the practice field while the other quarterbacks were doing drills. He was being escorted by the new strength coach whom seemed to not be happy having to babysit him. Seemed he was being punished for something. He seemed in no hurry to get things done and just had that "I don't care look to him".
Jackson is just very raw and will take time to develop. I think the game is just a little fast for him right now. Click is NOT BAD. I think the guy could play at a smaller school. He is a very capable quarterback and I truly hope they get him to hold like they did with Trey Gresh.
I really look forward to the spring game and hope one of the guys wins it outright. I have a gut feeling that Evans will get the nod. I have a feeling it may come down to the fact he has two years left compared to Motley being a Senior.
