Are people forgetting about Jack West?
He was fantastic in scrimmages (based on what little we saw) and better than Mills in my opinion. Shaw also said he had the most impressive camp of all players, showing the most progress.
His ball to Parkinson in the seam had so much zip, it was reminiscent of #12. He threw him open, too - it was a tight window. He threw a great ball over the shoulder for a TD, too.
I know I have very little data, but I hope Shaw puts Mills and West in a real competition next spring/summer, rather than applying the seniority principle. You can throw McKee in there, too, but realistically he doesn’t have a chance to be the starter this early in his Stanford career, given the high pedigree of our two guys in front of him and the self-imposed complexity of the offense.
BTW I agree with others that QB is not our main problem right now.
