This summer Coach Skrosky said he wanted to name a starting QB sooner rather than later. Does that mean we should hear an announcement after the next scrimmage? Or is the picture still too murky?

In the latest scrimmage: Quinn ended the day 16-of-37 passing for 123 yards, while Loughery went 18-of-31 for 190 yards. Christiansen finished 7-of-12 for 45 yards and one touchdown.
Team totals: 41-80, 358 yds, 1 TD.
Not exactly numbers to write home about...

elonphoenix.com/news/2014/8/16/FB_0816143836.aspx?path=football In the receiving game, Andre Davis led all players with 48 receiving yards on five catches. Lennon had four grabs for 47 yards. R.J. Pearsall and Allison both had a scrimmage-best six catches. Pearsall finished with 32 yards and Allison 43. It seems as though (just looking at stats) there simply is no downfield game. Maybe it's not implemented yet... I don't know.

How come Kierre Brown isn't showing up in the stat's? Is he hurt?

Kierre Brown is not showing up in the stats because the QB's are not going through their progressions properly. In other words, Kierre creates separation on almost every route but the QB's are not throwing the ball to him. I'm hope that the coaching staff makes note of this during film sessions and implement corrective measures before the season starts. The offense did not execute at all in the scrimmage yesterday. It appears that QB position has a lot of work to do. The offensive line did not look good either yesterday.

Heard the freshman QB Christiansen will not be active for the scrimmage today. Some minor injury.

If Skrosky thinks he can help them win, he'll play. I'd guess the other two would need to hit some fairly rough waters before that happens, though.

He should be red-shirted like most of this class. See Lennon @wr should be in the mix. Hudgins and Mellette redshirted all I'm saying |

It's all about winning. If a freshman can help you win now, play him. In this case, with a QB, it's a little complex. The team has to believe the young guy can lead them, etc. But in the end, if he can help you win, he's in.

From Adam Smith: Mike Quinn is the Elon starting QB. John Loughery is the backup. Frosh Connor Christiansen is third on depth chart.
So let's get it, boys.
