Forgive me if this comparison was already made but I remember two years ago listening to the Buffs play in Lawrence. Mangino burned Reesing's redshirt and you know how that game turned out. KU was 3-5 at the time and had lost 4 straight. Reesing almost single-handedly beat CU and KU season turned around to be bowl eligible.
I am not advocating pushing the panic button but most agree Cody in not the QB of the future or to get us to the next level. The jury is still out on Ballenger but does not appear to be the answer from what little we have seen. From many accounts, Hansen appears to have the goods. Why not burn the redshirt and throw the kid into the fire?
I see very little value in the RS at this point with Evans and Wynn (hopefully) coming in. If I were him, I would be itching to burn the redshirt and establish myself right now. D Scott has no red shirt, Miller getting medical RS, etc. I would want to be the number one with experience going into camp next year. Just a thought…
