yeah, I know Miami has two more games before that, but with the process of working in the younger QB's(ABR - Anybody But Rosier) beginning this week, it's clear to me that the Thursday night game at home vs UNC on the 27th, whoever is starting at QB - will be the guy who starts the next week at home vs FSU.
And if Rosier isn't unseated by then, well, yeah....
So in essence, Richt has about two weeks to figure this out to get this season on track in the first half. Seriously, I can't recall this much fan angst over the QB situation during the regular season. I remember in 93 Frank Costa getting benched after losing to FSU(when I dont think he played all that badly vs the best team in the country) and Ryan Collins had a run and by the end of the next season, Erickson went back to Costa.
In 1999, by the end of the year it was clear that Butch Davis understood that Ken Dorsey should be the guy leading the offense and not a part-time QB/shortstop.
I don't care if Rosier piles up stats vs these lesser teams(he did that last season), the past 4 games is really what he is. That's the reality.
Just canvassing the opinion of a lot of die-hards(that travel to multiple games) and some former players, at the very least they want one of the young guys broken in, if not Rosier flat out benched. I really do believe that Richt is in danger of losing not only a good segment of the fan-base but the lockerroom. Guys flat out don't want to play with him, he stifles the whole offense and deflates the whole team. And looking really big picture, if you don't at least start truly grooming the next QB, well, then next year you start off with a rookie behind center.
There is no future with Rosier.
In fact, there really might not be a present with him
