re: Gatewood to start for UK against UGA supposedly

It’s going to be baptism by fire for him. I actually think he got benched last game though.

He did. He could not move the offense.

I want him to do well as a QB. He did nothing to Auburn to change my thoughts, and I am not wanting him to do well just to show our coaches they screwed up.

That ship has passed for now over a year...

The facts that we had at the time, IMO, was he had the physical attributes(size, height, strong arm), but I feel he didn't have the QB experience gained by starting in HS like Nix did for what 4 or 5 years as a starter for his father? Gatewood in HS was used as a spot starter and mainly for a rushing offense.
