If it's not Thorne we're in trouble IMO.

I honestly think it'll be Ashford he gives Freeze more to work with with his ability to run. It also depends on how much Freeze likes the OLINE and WRs. If he has a lot of belief in those guys it might be Peyton. I heard Tom Luginbill say on a interview a couple weeks ago that he thinks it will be Ashford

QB Room:

Thorne: R-JR 525/861 6,493Yds 49TDS 24 Ints
270 Rushing 6TDS

Ashford: So 123/250 1613Yds 7TDS 7Ints
710 Rushing 7TDS

Geriner: R-Fr 2/3 8yds 0TDS 0 Ints

Brown: Fr No Playing Time

From what Freeze has said, no guarantee on starting was offered to any transfer QB, including Thorne. I’d say Thorne with all that experience. Ashford brings some explosive plays in the running game. I’ll be interested in the reports from fall camp, which starts in a month. Who knows how the other 2 will compete.

Thorne. With Ashford in for “trick” plays. Which I personally hope is few and far between.

My guess is that Thorne will get the job but we may see Robby Ashford play from time to time.

Thorne will be our best QB since JS. Praise be. Been a long time since we have seen competent QB play.

Any QB will improve with a solid O-line providing real protection.
