Interesting read, although I still expect Wade to start the Maine & Howard games no matter what is written in the papers. Maybe Wade is on a shorter leash than we assumed he was going to be. I don't have a problem with that.

DrJackRyan {l Wrote}:As Wednesday morning's practice wound down and Boston College’s first-team offense went off to a back field to run plays against the second-team defense, starting quarterback Darius Wade was an observer. Instead, just three days before the Eagles open the season, Troy Flutie — the former Natick standout who rewrote the Massachusetts state record book — took the majority of the snaps.

Do you think Flutie gets initial run at QB?
I expect him to be at WR by the time they break camp. That was my original point about "lip service". If he stays a year at QB, he's redshirting.

I'd say it's 100% that Flutie plays meaningful snaps at slot receiver.

I take it you believe Flutie is not an option at qb?
This shit is still funny.
twballgame9 {l Wrote}:I don't doubt that they gave Flutie a legit shot at QB given the lack of depth at the position. I just don't think, if he is as good an athlete as advertised, he will stay there. I also think it will take something strange or serious injury to supplant Wade, so his playing time at QB for the next 3 years is severely impeded.
twballgame9 {l Wrote}:
He won't move until the depth issues resolve themselves. They'd only have three QBs on campus if he moved now, and one has been practicing for a few days. But no, he's not getting a shot to play unless Wade goes down - he got 0 first team snaps.
twballgame9 {l Wrote}:
I don't think he will ever see the field as a QB, especially not now after seeing the last two classes (current frosh and next year's frosh, assuming Brown sticks). I do think he can be a productive player when he moves to WR.

fixed. you were so close but i think switching it around backwards is more in line with hansen's lies about "slithering house" and all his other lies. lying hansen

It's not called the "Metro East" or "Urban Boston". It might as well be "Natick Times". All indications from real newspapers are that Flutie isn't even #2

Not needed. As evidenced by ND's last trip to The Heights in 2012, ND fans have limitless access to Shea Field.

And under the circumstances, where you got three guys with no meaningful real game experience, that's exactly the way it should be. I hope all three guys get some meaningful time for the next two weeks.

That does not seem remotely "clear."
