And the coaches made that decision. Our coaches made the decision that Eason was the starter at the beginning of the year.


And you think they *only* considered spring practice in making that decision? They already knew what Eason could do in a game situations; Fromm was essentially an unknown as far as college-level play goes. After 5 games, Fromm is now a known, at least to some degree, so now the evaluation for each player includes both practice and game performance.

No, not at all. In fact, I've said many times that Eason probably has the edge because of his experience. I might have misunderstood your point.

My point was that the overriding factor for Eason was probably the improvement he had made and not what he did last year. That the coaches saw the potential of what he could do based upon how he had improved. Nobody knows how much he has improved other than the coaches who have seen him all Spring, Summer and Fall.

I agree. I think my response to you grew out of a misunderstanding of your point. I can get so focused on my point sometimes that I miss what others are saying. My bad.
