Looks like Wisc. is having a tough time picking a starting QB like we did. A 2 year starter may be passed up by a guy who has yet to take a D 1 snap as a QB. Interesting similarities.

Reminds me more of the circumstances surrounding Darron Thomas when he left Oregon after his RS JR season. Most likely was going to be beat out by Marcus Mariota, who was a RS FR, so Thomas declared for the NFL draft. Last I checked, he is the back-up QB for the Portland Arena League team, and Mariota is a co-favorite for the Heisman.
