QB Bennett could see playing time as a freshman

I think there will be playing time for Bennett in every game. There will be plays for him in playbook. As Coach said during press conference, he wants opposing teams to spend time preparing for him. If he only plays one or two snaps a game,, defensive coordinators will not burn midnight oil, worrying about him.


This reminds me of when Buckshot became starter, we should have used Masha some each game. With a dual threat QB, there are good plays an OC can call.

But then again, our playbook was too predictable, with very basic plays.

I always believed Buckshot not having any running plays made the rest of the playbook harder to execute.

[ballcoach15]

Certainly makes it easier for defensive coordinators to game plan.

Now that Buckshot has a solid backup he may be called on to run more.

He should be able to run a designed QB Draw.


Reminds me of an NFL game long time ago. I forgot who QB was, but he wasn't a threat to run at all. One game they called a QB sneak of first play from scrimmage. It went for about 50 yards if my memory is correct.
