Andrew McNulty, Sr. (6-1, 209)

Quick hit: Andrew McNulty is most likely the leading candidate for the starting job as he was Thompson’s backup last season. In McNulty’s first career collegiate start as a true freshman against Tulsa in 2011, he completed 11 passes for 158 yards and two touchdowns. After redshirting the 2012 season due to injury, McNulty appeared in eight games as a backup last season, with his most notable performance against No. 9 Georgia, where he completed five passes for 36 yards.

McCarney’s Comments:

“McNulty has emerged in recent practices and scrimmages as the guy to beat our for that job. He is a student of the game. What you like in your quarterback position is every time you turn around, they are in here at their own time, not when they are asked or forced to. He is one of the best when it comes to that at that position.”

I wonder if that quote was before or after Saturday's scrimmage. I know nothing official has been said about the scrimmage, but the word is that the defense dominated and McNulty did not look good. I believe Vito said his hunch is that Greer will get the nod in Austin on August 30th.

I remember seeing him fumble at least twice last year and throw an interception near the goal line against Idaho. I don't have a lot of faith in him but maybe he has improved over the summer. I can say i am less excited about the season if he is the 1st string qb.

That said, given that all practices are closed to media and fans we are all basing everything on hunches and guesses at this point.

I am fine either way they go, be it McNulty or Greer however - I do not want to see a two QB situation. You name one QB based on who you think can best win and give him some room for error in my opinion.

So...posted this in the other thread discussion on this article, but re-posting:

Reading down to the McCarney quotes on Greer: "He’s doing a pretty good job of leading, and it’s pretty safe to say he is one of the two players that will start against Texas"

Looks to me like we're going to be starting in a 2-QB set. Pretty innovative gameplan from Chico!

McNulty had a fumble in the Spring game but none during the season.

If Mac and the staff are still split between Greer and McNulty they need to go with who they think has the biggest upside. I'm not sure what "leadership" qualities McNulty has shown that Greer couldn't match. Through off-season weight training, spring ball, and fall practice Greer was getting the same amount of shoutouts for his work ethic and dedication.

I think Greer could really turn into a special player, especially when you consider the weapons he will have around him over the next 3 years.

It's Mini-Mac no matter what until he gets hurt... Then it'll be Mini-Mac as soon as he's healthy enough to run back out there. Anyone who thought otherwise was out of their mind.

God help us at Texas.

      Join the Infantry in Houston - Tuesday, 2/11 at 8pm

      Rob Lanier, former SMU head coach, found out what the Infantry could do last February at Moody Coliseum. So when he moved over to Rice, inside sources suggest he slipped Tim Spaghetti some cash to make sure his home game against UNT would be on a weeknight this season. But I say, "Too bad, Rob! You can't escape us!" If you're in Houston, or are retired and can make the trip, or want to use a couple of half days like I did, join us at the terrible Tudor Fieldhouse on Tuesday, 2/11 at 8 p.m. The game has the later start because it'll be on ESPNU as the "west coast game." There are just under a hundred seats left behind our bench which would be group-rated at $25. For the second straight year I want to sell the section out. What'll make it better is the sea of green will be on national TV. It'll be different without Scott Screamin' Pera on the Rice bench, but we'll still have plenty to taunt Lanier about. Like how his son has to follow him around to maintain a D1 scholarship. And don't forget the UNT Dallas debacle. Here's what we did last year. We bought about 70 tickets, plus whatever the team was allotted, and the local alumni who bought on their own. If you are interested in joining our group for the game, message me. I've got pending communication out with the Houston alumni chapter to see if they will plan to do anything before the game like last year.

      12,400 announced at Providence today, who came into the game with a record of 9-10. Providence is about the same distance to Boston as Denton is to Dallas.

      If we win out reg season we are in?

      No. You're wrong. You're wrong on a few different levels. 1st level is that you're putting too much stock in Memphis... they're on pace to be 25-6. If they lose in our tourney, you're suggesting that Memphis will be a 7 loss mid major at large? Maybe. But that's not guaranteed, at all. Next, you're putting a potential 28-5 team, per the scenario given, not in the field. Maybe, but highly doubtful. It's OK for the AAC to be competitive just because uh isn't in it anymore.
