To the expectation of many, Louisville Football officially announced Monday morning that quarterback Jawon Pass will get the starting nod when the Cards kick off the season on September 2nd at home against Notre Dame.
Although it seemed a potential quarterback battle was on the horizon between Pass and redshirt-sophomore Malik Cunningham, it was true freshman Evan Conley who received a majority of the 2nd-string reps after we learned Cunningham suffered an injury near the beginning of camp.
Pass, a redshirt junior, has had a less-than-ideal start to his career at Louisville. He was expected to be the quarterback of the future after the departure of Heisman winner Lamar Jackson.
