I think that bodes well for him. He will only grasp the offense better as the year goes on. Might as well put him in now. This Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Different QB, same offense, there would be no advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I the only one that thinks that neither Floyd or Eveld would have been good enough to be a backup at Penn State? So my guess is that Bench is talented enough to start at USF but needs time to learn the system that Floyd and Eveld had a jump start on with spring practice. I know he didn't play much but he was behind a pretty good QB up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If USF had played PSU several times over the past 5-7 years they would have won their share. UCF will probably beat them this year.

Since 2005 Penn St has won 8 or more games 7 out of 8 years, several of those being double digit win seasons. Their recruiting classes have consistently been much better or on par with ours. They have plenty of talent. If UCF beats them this year, its because they have a brand new unproven QB, just like us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Taggart is going to land even better QB's over the next two years of recruiting. If he is the best option now by all means use him.

Forget about "name" of school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the others, who knows, two of those years Penn St was a top 10 team end of year ranked team. Edited August 23, 2013 by slick1ru2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redshirtingdecisions come almost after the the fact. A little bit different than holtz run team. I think they have someone in mind for opnening day they just don't want anybody to know.
