Yes.  This is a big problem.  His footwork is bad and he's always throwing off his back foot

  Good points on who is coaching up Crenshaw, and why give up on Waid so quickly.  Listened to radio show lasst night, Bob Hannon asked Phillips if he considered going with Joe Craycraft in the 4th quarter, and Phillips said no.  How could you not at least consider making a change.

Waid is lucky if he can throw it 20 yards downfield and Craycraft is lucky if he can hit a guy wide open. That's why.

33, what have you seen from Crenshaw to think he can?

Here's the way I look at this situation.. this is a rebuilding season, no way around it. We're not looking to make the playoffs this season. Craycraft is a senior and we know what we have with him... a guy who has an arm but has zero accuracy. Waid doesn't have an arm, there's no other way around it. We've seen that first hand. Crenshaw has played all of three games and is a freshman. Let the kid play and see what he has. We already know this season is a wash anyways, so it's better to give this kid time to develop and if at the end of the season he hasn't shown improvement, then you know going into next season what we do and don't have. If you sit the guy after three games, one of which was against Michigan State, what are you really doing to develop the kid? Let him take his lumps. This isn't Ohio State where you have two or three five star guys behind him. Be patient with him. I'm not saying he's the answer, but Craycraft isn't the future, and Waid... we've already been there, done that.
