Roback has been on the sidelines, wearing uniform #9, Austen Everson's old number.

Yeah....runs QB for the scout team....really wants to play QB.

I'm sure he'd be real happy to hear that you think he sucks at QB.

Where did I say he sucked?  Please point that out in my above post!  And if you read the young mans quotes he wants to play on the "offensive" side of the ball.  Do you ever let facts get in your way?  Ever?

The fact is that he is playing QB now.

The fact is that he wants to play QB.

The fact is that he left ND because he wanted to play QB.

The fact is that if he plays TE according to you then he won't play QB.

The fact is that if he plays TE he must not be good enough to play QB.

The fact is that you'll argue and probably say it'll be better for him if he plays TE....which is a prediction....and that's a fact.

See....I have lots of facts.

You still fail to answer the question where did I say the kid "sucked"?    That and the young mans quotes are the two facts I am talking about.  The following is a QUOTE from Derek to Blue and Gold on his transfer, please tell me where he says Quarterback?

“I really wanted to play on the offensive side of the ball,” Roback said. “It’s not that I disliked [safety].”

When we recurited Derek out of High School we had offered him as a TE, that is also FACT. 

Another fact is, I will gladly throw a wager on what position this young man sees the field, and he will see the field!

Don't we already have one transfer on the squad that wants to be a QB? Sometimes, people let egos get in their way.  And, sometimes a position change is a real benefit to a player in the long run.
