I think what this says is that there aren't any JC transfers that are better than what we have now. Buechele is ok, but he's not dual threat. Ehlinger is dual threat, but has been stung by the injury bug (and will be a freshman). Merrick is a guy on the roster that I know nothing about. Heard is a dual treat QB with more legs than arms and he wasn't taking QB reps last year. If they are seriously talking about moving him back, I'll back the coaching staff. A true dual threat QB is hell on a defense.
Sadly, QB is likely to be a problem for us again this year. As far as Mackovic is concerned, I'd take James Brown over any of these guys at this point.
