Re: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] [SUN]: Muschamp sticking with Driskel

This is so true. In a way, yes, the O stunk, but that's not the end of what I saw in the Alabama game. I saw an aggressive game plan that should have been competitive. I saw an offensive line that gave the QB time to throw. I saw receivers open all day. I saw one receiver (Dunbar) who couldn't hold onto the ball for the second game in a row. I wouldn't give up on him yet, but I might look elsewhere on 3rd downs. I saw another receiver (Robinson) who got almost no looks.

Most importantly, I saw a QB who had no command of his offense. He often didn't see his open receivers, and he mostly threw the ball very poorly to the receivers he did target. I don't care how good Driskel looks in practice... if he can't do it at game time, then you have to move on. 

There are lots of freshman QBs playing great this year, and I don't buy for a minute that a freshman can't perform at this level. Coach is crazy if he doesn't involve Harris early in the UT game. Harris doesn't have to start, but we should give him the second quarter or give him every third series or whatever. It's just stupid for CWM to keep saying Harris doesn't have enough experience and then for him not to give the kid any experience. Give him meaningful snaps every game and he will probably be starting by the end of the year. That might save Muschamp's job. Sticking with Driskel will probably bring the CWM era to a close.

Of course, I may be wrong. Driskel may just flip a mental switch next week and turn into a Heisman candidate, then go on to trounce LSU, USC and UGA and... ... ...oh, wait, I drifted off to sleep for a moment there, but it was a nice dream.

When we discuss what cost Muschamp his job at the end of the year, remember this article.

Second place will go to sticking with Durkin. Who knew at the time that the best hire by Muschamp was Dan Quinn, not Charlie Weis?
