Would be one of the best stories in football if Burns came back and has an awesome year.

Not sure we want Shaw to get the idea it takes 5 years in the system to master the offense.

I think that's the wrong way to look at it.  We want Shaw to play a QB who masters the system, whether he does it in one year or five.  And specifically, I wouldn't want Shaw to automatically discard someone just because they have been in the system x years and still haven't mastered it.

Spring ball will be fun to watch to see who moves the offense better.  I hope it is Costello, but if it is Burns, I will be happy for him and support him as our starter.

If we're hoping for things, I hope Chryst has a miraculous recovery. I believe a healthy Chryst is the best option on the roster.

Domerville is bringing in two stud TE's but they lose Durham Smyth. I'm sure that they would love to "steal" a Stanford kid to bolster their overall GPA.

I can't think of an example of a college quarterback who had lost a starting job (not due to injury) and came back to success.  The most similar example I could think of is Tom Brady.  My recollection (incorrect) was that Henson had passed him on the depth chart and Brady won the job back.  Some checking indicates that Carr played Brady for the 1st quarter, Henson the 2nd quarter and then picked a QB for the 2nd half.  Brady eventually won the job outright. Hank probably has a better memory of this as I usually only see Michigan play during The Game.

I thought of an example and it also coincidentally involves the Skunkbears. This example involves a coaching/scheme change and a transfer. Ryan Mallett.  When Rich Rod took over the Skunkbear program, Mallett transferred to Arkansas and played well there.  Well enough to get drafted by the Patriots.

Smythe still has a year left.

does anyone know what his major is?  Or have heard what grad program he will pursue?  I also stuck around for a 5th year and really got a lot out of it.  Very happy for him!

Have you seen the new prognosis on Teddy Bridgewater? 19 months to recovery now. Of course, his is complicated by a kneecap on top of the ACL but it's not an easy, or predictable, road.
