As far as the coaches.. depends on which coach you ask. JV coaches want him to stay down, Varsity coaches want him to move up.
I can't see him starting at DB... but I've been surprised before.
He's played DB... but he's always been the starting QB... and it's not his 'arm', exactly.. I mean, he's good, but it's upstairs. His grasp of the game... the playbook, it's flawless.
I just can't see giving up what he does best for nearly two years.... but I do understand him wanting to go Varsity in his Sophomore year. If he got a lot of reps on Varsity, (on the practice field), well.. then maybe, but I seriously doubt that's going to happen. Our QB is one of the top rated in the valley. - JamesJM
