Bryan McClendon weighs in on talk of Dakereon Joyner changing positions | The State

South Carolina offensive coordinator Bryan McClendon said a recent assertion that freshman quarterback Dakereon Joyner should switch positions is "way too early."

"I still think the kid has a bright future playing quarterback. Just going to have to keep progressing and see how things go from there," McClendon said Thursday before addressing the Atlanta Gamecock Club. "He still has a bright future and a lot left to learn to play quarterback. To even say somebody can go and do anything else right now when you see their first spring practice and they should be in high school, it’s kind of early to say anything one way or another.
