Check out this old article on the recruitment of Pat Carter, our back-up QB, who will likely be red-shirted this year. Notice the comment - "Gailey told him he would play during his freshman season". I wonder how reality sets in with these recruits? I mean, we only have 5-6 freshman quarterbacks in the COUNTRY starting this year. So it is a rarity. But Gailey DID prove that he will start a freshman - it was just Reggie B that won out.
I wonder how Pat Carter feels about the process. I wonder if he feels he got a real chance to win that job and will accept his back-up role. Obviously Al Pena did not like what he saw early on and transferred.
Anyhow, I am glad to see recruits impressed with Gailey, the school and the city. Winning this year should only improve our ability to attract the more talented players.
