Colby. Hedrick had 5 against Air Force alone. And and 4 more against Ole Miss. Colby had 0 against Air Force, and hasn't thrown more than 2 in a single game.mwc fan wrote:Ok here's a question for you. would you take Hedrick with all his picks this season or Colby?
Sorry but I am just not a fan of Colby's

If Colby was our only problem, he really wouldn't be a problem. Needs to shore up the fumbles, though.
There is no practice that gets a QB used to game speed. That is why college superstar QBs rarely excel their first playing year in the pros.
Not as big of leap for Colby (as college QB going to pro), but some of the things like staring down receivers, pocket awareness, interceptions, etc. can be overcome with experience. I've actually thought his throws are improving a little. He still makes bonehead mistakes, but, overall, I would stick with him. If we get past a few more games and hit a brick wall in terms of development, then, yeah, give someone else a shot. Until then, I agree with the coaches and let's see how he does against MWC-level competition.
