I would like to point out at this time that Maryland has a dual threat qb commit named Shane Cockerville.

Cockerville or Cockeysville, Maryland?

In fact, weren't we all basically justifying the Lowrie verbal because he could play other positions in college if things didn't work out? Isn't this the same logic with Bordner and Rettig in the same class?
Can you provide an example of a BC qb recruit who played meaningful downs as a non-qb at BC? Is there anyone other than Boek who has played at all? I feel like there might have been in the late 90s-early 2000s but I can't think of who it would be. While hopefully Addazio is a superior roster manager to spaz, I think in all likelihood in practice you would end up losing one of your two qb recruits early on in their careers if you do the spread and drop back wait and see approach.
You aren't advocating that the Bordner/Rettig usage was tenable are you?
Henderson, for one.

There are also more than a few high school QBs that are currently playing a different position (just from last year's class, you have David Dudeck and Bryce Jones).

I think he finished his career as a TE... but, I don't think he ever played... as he transferred before his final year of eligibility.

That is a blast from the past. Where did he transfer to?

I don't think this is a secret. The kid has been behind Shinskie and Bordner and Marsco for a reason. He barely played in the Spring Game, he doesn't see reps in practice and NO ONE has ever talked about him being the answer since he arrived on campus. Nonetheless, when the question was poised to Eric Hoffses on EA, his response: I have barely seen him play, which is saying a lot since I go to every scrimmage in the spring and summer. I asked Doug Martin about him in September and he started with "Christian in a good kid....." and went into how they are working on mechanics and footwork with him. It was not a ringing endorsement to be honest.

I remember when they were called David Meggett types.

HJS {l Wrote}:It's not just the depth chart... it is the lack of any PT... the constant chatter about him having zero arm strength (something that was evident at the Spring Game)... and that Doug Martin was down on the kid (not just Spaz). It should be noted that as many reports there are about him being not-ACC-caliber, there are at least as many reports about him being a super kid who is the coaches and players think very highly of as a person.
I guess, if you are going to doubt the rumors of one, you should doubt both.

He threw what 2 passes at the spring game?
Thinking about it, wouldn't be surprised if we move on from Shinskie. It's clear Addazio is aggresively recruiting and according some of the weird0s above, scholarships are a little tight. Granted, we'll probably have some attrition which will come after exams.

What I want to know is whether I too have the power to say something a bunch of times and then declare there is constant chatter about whatever I have been talking about.
