We were 0-11 last year? Ouch.

Proof TP has made every effort to wipe that nightmare of a season from his memory.

Doesn't he have to sit a year due to transferring? This URI release makes him seem like the immediate backup. I'm all for seeing Luke Casey play. I was very surprised to read that Bentsen is the most accurate passer in school history...

I believe if you switch divisions, you have immediately eligibility.

Andrew,i agree on Bentsen's accuracy?
He needs someone to push him.

After last years 0-11 debacle, i want to see Kolt Peavey start! The small excerpt about him in that GoRhody article is fairly impressive.

[TruePoint]

I probably did know it at the time, but if you had asked me last night I would have said 2-9 or 1-10. I did forget they were that bad.

You can play right away if you transfer from an FBS school to an FCS school.

[Ramulous]

He can play immediately.....also if a D1 basketball player transfers to D2 or 3 they can play without sitting.....

I hope this is true, our O line is pretty big so lets give them something good to protect. QB was a huge weak spot for us and a southern boy is just what we need.

[SmartyBarrett]

don't sleep on luke casey at QB either. maybe not this year, but i expect the kid to be solid.

[Iggy1979]

I would think Peavey will get every chance to start. With decent WRs and TEs, Bentsen was disappointing last year.
(I think this team will be good defensively; if they can get any offense, they can move back to respectability.)

[SmartyBarrett]

I agree, Iggy. GoRhody.com even hinted at Peavey getting a chance to start (emphasis mine):

South Alabama transfer Kolt Peavey (Bolivar, Mo.) enters camp as the main backup and has the potential to push for playing time.

Or... we could keep with our present QB...

[Rhodymob05]

Very accurate
