Is this because Hurts has been good or the other QBs just aren't? That's the obvious question of course, but it's probably somewhere in the middle.

This is the big question. There is a huge difference in picking the shiniest diamond or picking the shiniest turd.


Exactly, but how many true Frosh has been diamonds? Hurts would be one of the few (Rosen was good for UCLA last year but still lost some games for them)

We would have to hope that the talent around Hurts can cover for his inexperience. His ability to scramble will help as well. I'd rather him decide to run than force a dumb throw. I know there will be growing pains, but I hope we can minimize them with talent and play calling. We basically know what we are getting with Bateman (I'm just not a fan of his style of play). Hurts could be great or terrible or anything in between. That's a chance I'm willing to take. The coaches on the other hand......
