Forget those redshirt comments, A.J. Long is in the hunt (along with Austin Wilson) to be Terrel Hunt's backup.
In early March, A.J. Long said he expected to redshirt in 2015 and prep for a season at the helm in 2016.
In late March, Long said that his redshirting comments were taken out of context and that, "I could very well be starting this year, but there's a lot of things I have to take care of in order for that to happen."
Based on the way Tim Lester is taking about the Syracuse Orange QB depth chart for 2015, it certainly sounds unlikely that Long will actually redshirt at all.
