Wait, so he wasn't removed from the watch list when the news broke that we'd be running plays from under center?

I'm still trying to figure out why he didn't redshirt his second year. What did he play? Five plays? What a waste!

Total waste...complete coaching snafu...I actually had a conversation in passing with one of his parents about this right after it happened.

I also have to wonder if he was good enough to make this watch list why wasn't he named a Captain???
Seems to me Pruehs is the kind of guy we would want leading this team. (an everyday player, excellent grades in a difficult major, never been in trouble, etc.)
And don't tell me that the players vote on them. They do, but input from the players on this issue only goes as far as it agrees with the coaches agenda.

Good player is not the same as good leader.

There are 100+ players on the team, and I'm sure many of them would make excellent captains. Not everyone can be, however. Once you saw teams with a single Captain, then co-Captains. I've seen as many as 8 co-captains, but I'm not sure that's a good thing.
