Jason, welcome to the show.

Good to be back.

Let's get right to it.

Quarterback position is something that everybody's talked about.

You're intimately familiar with the position maybe on the high school level, but also the college level, your take

on the approach this season, and how it may be different for Larry Fodor and his staff than it was

last season.

It's miles different, obviously, just because you don't have one Mitchell Trubisky back there,

who could be your franchise and your security blanket. And actually, in a lot of ways it goes back, it's going to be closer to, I think, what they, what they had with Marquise Williams, the prior year in a lot of respects. And, you know, you might say that's just because, you know, Brandon Harris is a better runner than Trubisky.

And, you know, Trubisky, not quite as natural a runner as Marquise. But it's not even, it's not quite as simple as that. Because the other factor, and this is something actually, I talked to both the UNC and the Clemson staffs this offseason. and both staffs actually talked about how they had to be very careful about how they ran their quarterbacks this last year, because both staffs had first round quarterbacks and then didn't have a clear backup behind that quarterback that they knew could come in and play at that kind of level.

So, you know, two years ago, if Marquist Williams went down, well,

you know, you still have Trubisky. You're still doing pretty well, right? So you can,

you feel secure running the wheels off the guy and using his running talent and all of that

ability to create as a dual threat quarterback that because you know you trust

the guy behind him and that's where actually having some depth that the quarterback position really

matters same thing with clemson you know we saw a couple years ago what happened when clemson

when when disson went down and it was disastrous, right?
