No more "OR" between Bean & Aune.

It's gonna be Bean's show moving forward. Unlike last year when it really made no difference if Shanbour got snaps in blowouts or not (since he was already as good as he was ever going to be as a RS Sr), I think Bean could benefit greatly from some garbage time snaps if they allow him to run the full offense. Come in just to hand off, and it's useless.

Yeah, someone needs to be thoroughly groomed to be the QB next year. I wouldn't give up on Aune being that guy, but someone, anyone (other than Fine) has got to get meaningful minutes this season--at least on occasion. A couple handoffs at the end of a game now and then accomplish nothing.

There's going to be some dropoff in QB play from this season to next no matter what we do, but if we don't at least have average QB performance next year, then we're probably looking at around a 3 win season.

There will be a big drop off. But what bean provides in the RPO will be able to make up for it.

Linebackers will worry about Siggers. Safeties will worry about Bean. Tight ends open down the middle all day.

He sure is fast when decides to run - could be the fastest on the team!
