Just read that we will be starting our Freshman QB. Milton is concentrating on the draft.

They are going crazy excited on Volquest. I would prefer not to throw him into the fire, but whatever.

Well starting him will take away tendencies that Iowa's defense could try to plan around. So it could be an advantage to some degree for you. Is he much of a runner? Has he played at all this year in mop up duty or anything?

You just have to look at it as a net positive for next season. Those will be valuable reps in the Bowl practices/game.

A little mop up. We will just have to see.

Now that's funny. I doubt he goes before the seventh round.

So you are saying he will get drafted?

Tough call. He doesn't fit the CFL mode seeing how that's a passing league. I'm thinking he's something akin to a preferred walk-on at an NFL team and might end up playing on the practice squad if he's lucky.

What will be funny is when Penix gets crushed like a tin can against texas defense.

Whatever happens in the Sugar Bowl won't take away the fact that Milton is a truck and to think he's sitting out his bowl game to get prepared for the draft is a bit surreal if anything.

If Milton is a truck Penix is the tread print of said truck.

You would think Milton would want to play to IMPROVE his draft stock.

I doubt you think very much. The most probable scenario is that coaches wanted to get a start under Nico's belt and Milton said fine.

If so, that speaks volumes more about Milton than it does Nico.
