“…there is some hope that Johnson’s commitment could serve as a catalyst to jump start some commitments.”
About this time yesterday afternoon, he tweeted “Time to recruit.” So that seems promising.
Is Dorsey the one Rich Howell was on the way to choke-slam at the end of regulation when he didn’t whistle a foul?
I understand and agree with why you omitted Wilson’s first real start against South Carolina but I think he accomplished something in that first quarter (or whatever) that set the tone for his time running with the Pack. He came out and didn’t show great at QB, but then he made a gutsy run under pressure. I remember him enthusiastically taking the hit instead of scrambling for the sideline. He was hurt and he stayed down and had to be taken off with the stretcher. Everybody saw a glimpse of a heroic kid and was worried he was unconscious or paralyzed or something. And as he was strapped to the stretcher being carted off, crowd silenced in worry, he gave the crowd a thumbs-up. Anybody else remember that?
He showed then and there what type of QB he was and how he was leading by example. Granted, that was an aberration. Wilson’s not the normal case in any way. I still think it bears mentioning because even if (hopefully when) Glennon and the pieces around him turn it on and make him the greatest QB we’ve ever seen, we still won’t be able to look back and say “yeah, we saw that in his first start.”
