I understand the HC is the ultimate decision maker and I trust Muschamp to make the dicision about his QB.  I sure do hope he had some input from (1 the Players---the offensive coaches and especially Coach Pease ) in making his decision.  No one but that group of people can agree or disagree with it.  We were not there with them the past two years. There is also the possibility Jacoby and Tyler will be needed before the season is over.  I certainly do think Pease should make the play calls on the offensive side of the ball!!!!!!!

One doesn’t run a football team by committee.  Players that have surfaced will and should be handled by the coaches in the locker room not in the media.
