Yes, and not keeping Boyd wasn't the problem. It was losing Casey Kelly to the MLB draft, having Mike Rozier quit, having BJ Coleman quit, ect., ect., ect.

Bray and Simms will both see playing time this year imo
losing Casey Kelley was huge IMO, I thought he would be a really productive player.
if Bray is clearly better than Simms, start him now. if he can handle the pressure and produce as a frosh, no reason not to start him. Screw Phil Simms, if his son cant cut it, then i would not lose sleep over it if I was DD.
Bray has potential, no doubts about it. He has great size, a good QB frame, and a good arm, so he has the tools, but it will just take time for him to get accustomed to the speed of SEC ball compared to HS ball.
QB is a really hard position to come in as a frosh and start, especially in the SEC against some of the best defenses in the nation, BUT if a kid can do it, he will be battle tested early and be really great as he matures.

In the 2nd scrimmage before the Orange/White game Simms goes 8 for 25 after a mediocre 2-9 in the 1st. That's a grand total of 10-34 (29 percent) and Bray so far thru 2 scrimmages is 10-19 and 8 for 13 for a total of 18-32 (56 percent). The spring game next will tell a tremendous amount but if Chaney says he is gonna go with the most accurate we definitely know who that is so far and it's not even close.
So far, Tauren Poole is averaging roughly 10 ypc so far this spring which is awesome.

Austin Johnson appears to be making the move from FB to ILB rather easily.
