McElwain has always said from spring camp to now that it wasn't about measurables and who can make this throw and that throw. It was going to be about who moved the offense better, elevated the players around him and how they handled key situations. Reading into that I always thought that favored Treon a bit more.

That actually worries me then. This team is not good enough to go to Atlanta. So who cares about this year. Honestly, I don't want to try to win this year and go all in on it. This team isn't strong enough to win it all. SO build for next year when we have far more experience. Grier is the better passer of the two that's obvious from every report I've seen. Harris is more athletic, but Grier can run too. I don't want to see 10-20 type games. Sick of them. I want a QB who puts the ball between the numbers. Hopefully Harris has improved his accuracy. If so I'm all in for the kid. But his tape last year was not all that great overall. Mind you it was in Muschamp's death trap to all offensive players though

Grier is sort of a quiet "lead by example" guy, which is to say he doesn't show much emotion and doesn't really get the other players fired up (see Driskel, Brantley). "Lead by example" types tend to not lead very well. Chris Leak did much better when he came out of his shell a little bit his Senior year.
