re: When Bo Nix does well at Oregon

Entitlement without merit was his biggest problem. He needs to put in the work and prove himself to be able to take coaching and read Defenses better.. this
: I could see him as a Y receiver or H back,, maybe..
But as a qb? Uhh..uhhhh!

Eh, I think this is only half right. I think he's incredibly ambitious, perhaps to a fault. Even Pat said something indicating Bo is driven to succeed individually rather than a team-first guy. I don't think he's the typical "me first" player, though. It's not vanity and he's not uncoachable.

I also don't think it's for lack of effort or work. By all accounts he puts in the work. There are a lot of rumblings he doesn't do the other side of the equation - the team building part - but I've never heard his work ethic questioned.
