Feagin to play QB?

by Beauford on Nov 19, 2008 1:52 PM CST in Michigan Football

Threet is probably not going to play this weekend, leaving the role previously defined as "quarterback" to Nick Sheridan. Or maybe not.

Take what you want out of this:

"Justin's gotta be able to do all the same plays that Nick and Steve are doing and we're gonna practice him that way this week,"

"He couldn't grab the ball," Rodriguez said, adding, "He can make all the throws."

Feagin is much healthier now, Rodriguez said, increasing the likelihood that he'll play against Ohio State.

The most interesting bit? "He can make all the throws." I doubt that Feagin starts this weekend, but I do think that we're going to see him in an expanded role. Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead type stuff. It will be interesting either way, and merits keeping at eye on.

At first I was like, "that was lloyd-like to keep injuries from the public"

then i realized that lloyd wouldn’t have even said that.

Justin Feagin @ QB

I saw Justin play QB in high school and he is majical. He is the only dual QB on the roster. RR should give hime a shot this week. Treet and Sheridan will not be his QB next year.

Hey, that's pretty cool

A few times this season I’ve wondered why Feagin hasn’t played over an obviously over-matched Sheridan. And I agree, Threet and/or Sheridan won’t be QB next year, it’ll either be a freshman or Feagin.

Thanks for the comment though – that’s pretty cool that you saw Feagin in HS.

Like an old man trying to send back soup at a deli.
