Did he get hurt or something?

ETA: Or are you just talking about his win last night?

I remember him as a recruit. He was in same signing class as Braxton Miller so he chose to go to prep school for a year (effectively grayshirted) to put a year in between him and Miller

Big guy with a cannon arm. I've seen Cam Newton comparisons, but I've never seen him play.

He's a Sophmore

6'5 250 listed on ESPN, not much of a run threat from what I saw last night

He went 12 - 17 of 257 yds 3 TDs last night but Wiscy's D had a lot of injuries through the year, not nearly as good as the D that played LSU

He's come in a few games as a backup, from Ohio

I know they held Melvin Gordon to 2.9 yards a carry last night, so anyone who thinks we will line up and run the ball on them with easy is sadly mistaken.

Huge arm, annoying runner due to his size. Will almost always get an extra yard or so when falling. Not the dynamic Barrett or Miller brought, but he can get 5-6 yards if he gets moving. Not a lot of teams keyed on him until Wisconsin, which allowed him to flash his arm and open the run game for others.

Touch is an issue,and he single reads a bit too. Both could be due to inexperience. but definitely has the ability to make every throw. He's easier to stop running(like stopping Henry quick), which for a good defense can start to pick apart the execution of that offense.

Gonna be in for some groans if they let him scramble around and extend plays for a big pass like they did Mauk.
