because hes gonna be the #2 qb

I understand he may pass Stoudt, but the fact is that if


Aug 4, 2012, 8:37 PM

Tajh were to have an injury and a backup has to play in multiple games, we are going to have problems anyway. I think redshirting Kelly makes perfect sense given the fact that we are going to have a hard time hanging on to Watson in the future. He'll end up at Ohio State or Oregon in my opinion.

if morris is at clemson and recruits no other qb, i think


Aug 4, 2012, 8:45 PM

we hold onto watson. why wouldn't he want to stay close to home and play in this hopped up O?

You need a #2 qb that can win games not just manage...and if kelly wins the job then you cant redshirt him

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

You can, you just pull it if Boyd gets hurt.***

sure, that's a sit down convo with kelly. you're number 2,


Aug 4, 2012, 8:50 PM

but we don't want to waste a year over you getting 50 snaps in mop up duty.

good point but experience is never a waste

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

i agree, but live bullet experience is diff than somebody go


Aug 4, 2012, 9:08 PM

out there and take a knee. :)

he doesn't look like a freshman; it'll be interesting if he can win the 2 spot.

plus, you do not have to assign redshirts until after the season. so if boyd stays healthy you just dont put chad in and then redshirt him at end of year. no decision to be made until you need someone to go in.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Why should we?


Aug 4, 2012, 8:34 PM

Boyd's gone in two years tops, possibly this year if he puts up similar numbers without a late season meltdown. If Kelly's got the goods, having him as both a backup and a change of pace option can only be to our benefit. If he needs a year for conditioning and adjustment to college so be it. If he doesn't, let the seasoning begin.

Tajh won't be leaving early. 5th - 6th rounder in 2013


Aug 4, 2012, 8:39 PM

Draft, but a 2nd - 3rd in 2014.

Re: Why wouldn't we redshirt Chad Kelly?


Aug 4, 2012, 8:38 PM

He better play now while he can. DeShaun Watson is on the way.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

because he might push tb. morris harped on it last year


Aug 4, 2012, 8:39 PM

boyd had so distanced himself that stoudt couldn't push him. he said there was a clear battle at number 2, but they needed someone to close the gap with tb.

if kelly is that guy that keeps boyd from eating that extra piece of pizza, bless him.

Recruiting at the level we are,a lot of these guys are potentially 3 year guys. If you redshirt, you only get 2 out of them.

Aug 4, 2012, 8:53 PM

The most intriguing part is him as a change of pace running threat, that can add another component of Morris' offense.

Aug 4, 2012, 8:59 PM

Kelly has been through a spring practice and he probably won't be here but 3 years no matter what and if Tajh goes pro next year we will be in a fix if K
elly has no experience.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

kelly didn't enroll until early summer. wish he had been


Aug 4, 2012, 9:05 PM

here for spring.

Two things:


Aug 5, 2012, 12:37 AM

1. In a perfect world, we would redshirt every single freshman.

2. The player who gives us the best chance of winning will always play.

What this means is, if a true freshman plays, it means one thing and one thing only; the coaches feel he is the best man for the job.

I'm sure the coaches would like to redshirt Kelly. If they don't, then you know the coaches feel he is more ready than the next guy.
