Carey has his press conference today as well. I doubt we hear anything about the QBs but we should get a look at a depth chart.

That's a pretty misleading statement. He redshirted and was scout team as a freshman. Played backup (actually 3rd string as a freshman) and ten was at Toledo last year.
The kid has a good pedigree but man that's a total twist on the actual situation to sound favorable. He want even in Alabama three years.

Carey said absolutely nothing interesting. Haha.
I also look forward to NIU beating Toledo and their Alabama transfer QB with a Western Michigan transfer QB.

Did they also announce their other starting QB?
Oh wait...umm...yeah...we've got 3 of 'em...never mind...

I heard Carey is either going to have them draw straws or play rock, paper scissors to see who starts.
