This. Another example would be the GOAT himself, Tom Brady. Rubley spent 3 years at K. St. I invite you to check out how much Brady played his first 3 seasons at Michigan. Let the QB competition begin.Refresher on Zach Annexstad - he got some good PT as a freshman at Minnesota in 2018, then he sat on the bench for 3 years w/o any real PT. He missed the entire 2019 season with injury, sat on the bench the entire 2020 season w/o injury just not used, and then got in two games in 2021 w/o throwing a pass or making a rush attempt. So while I'm all for getting a guy who's got a record of accomplishment at whatever level, DIII or DII or DI, we have a pretty good example of how a guy who "got lost" on an FBS bench can be pretty damn effective for old state U.
I'm happy if young Rittenhouse can hold off the challenge and do his thing, would make fourthandshort happy that a HS QB recruited by Spack finally comes through. But if Mr. Rubley makes it happen, good for him. We'll need two QB's one way or the other, history has shown.
