Another season, another wide open quarterback battle in fall camp. The old coaching cliché, “if you’ve got 2 quarterbacks, you have no quarterback” is antiquated in modern college football. Successful teams have incorporated two quarterbacks into a game plan for some time now.
Last season, Clemson, for instance, ran a “2 quarterback system” with consensus overall #1 pick Trevor Lawrence as the starter. Once a game, 6’5”, 250 pound true freshman D.J. Uiagalelei would come in and run zone read and quarterback power, daring opposing linebackers to fill the hole and tackle a massive Samoan running down hill.
