Santa only had 1 week all of last year to get starter practice reps with the 1st team and then split reps all summer with 2 other guys. I get not wanting to get him hurt, but at some point we need to get him more experience, especially in game situations. Without that, we wouldn't be adequately preparing him to lead the squad vs a solid P5 opponent on the road.

Next week in Lincoln is going to be a tough game for the kid. He won't be playing at EMU or Kent St in front of 500 people or at home vs a FCS team. Really excited for him. This is his big opportunity and hopefully he is able to make the most of it.
