But again, I trust Dabo's judgement so I'll just sit back and watch it play out.

Here's the thing...

I completely trust Dabo. He's earned it...he's the freaking defending National Champion!
And this may just be coach speak...but I feel like Scott already kinda let the cat out of the bag when he said they'll find a place for Bryant if it isn't QB. Just think for a sec...do you think they would have ever said that about Watson? That may not be a fair comparison, I know, but I think it IS telling of the talent behind Bryant and who he has nipping at his heels.
I think Bryant IS the better performing QB right now. His athleticism combined with a serviceable passing game would make a lethal combo (thinking Lamar Jackson-esque). That should make any Tiger salivate at that prospect.
I guess the main thing to take away is Bryant can't stagnate or regress. If so, that opens up playing opportunities for others and may mean losing his starting role. And if that happens, he's probably going to play another position or transfer. He's going to want to see the field in some manner.

Neither you or me know his ceiling. If his passing improves dramatically from the Spring game, then yes....I think he has something that can't be coached. That kind of jaw dropping athleticism that isn't common among QBs. I'm not claiming he'll be the next LJ, but I'm also not gonna say he can't play a similar style game.

No where near the talent? I can't believe I just read that. I think he is just as athletic as Lamar, and Bigger too. It won't be hard to be just as good of a passer as Jackson. Look at his passing stats last year.

Yeah interesting fact. I actually expect opposing defenses to be terrified of our veteran OL and Kelly's running ability. I expect Bryant to be hitting a lot of wide open receivers off run pass options.

What must Dabo do to prove to you he knows what he is doing? Maybe if he could win a national championship you could trust he is making decisions in the best interest of the program.

It's amazing how an article can have a quote from Dabo praising Kelly, but in the comment section of said article people's comments are trashing him.

Let me guess, you've been at all the practices right? Or are you just trying to read into Dabo's words, take them out of context and assume things based on some kind of special intuition that you want to make us believe you have? It's the wrong time of year for assumptions like this.

You may be correct. But he can run. And I seem to recall a running qb not too long ago winning a Heistman.

It's good the O came around today. It's gotta be tough going against the 1s or even 2s, maybe 3s. KB must be a viable pass threat for us to be successful against some of the teams we play this year, else they load the box.
