After head coach Will Hall made it clear on Saturday that the starting quarterback would be announced when the roster was revealed on Monday, we finally have our answer, and coach is a man of his word.
Tulane Names Zeon Chriss-Gremillion as Starter
After a long, drawn-out quarterback battle that saw its way from being a two-way battle, to a four-way battle heading into Fall, and then back to a two-way competition as Fall progressed, coach Hall has found his answer for the quarterback spot.
His answer: Zeon Chriss-Gremillion. the Houston transfer is looking to improve upon his previous seasons, and his overall inconsistent, but improved play throughout Fall.
With Zeon as the starter, it wouldn’t be ridiculous to expect the Wave offense to be extremely run-heavy. Zeon is easily one of the best pure athletes on the field, and if he’s the starter, coach Hall and the offense should take full advantage of that athleticism.
Some options and designed quarterback runs will likely play a huge roll in the offense, but we’ll hope that Zeon can get it to his talented weapons: Destyn “Fat” Hill, Anthony Brown-Steven’s, CJ Lewis, and Jaylin Lucas.
As we’ve seen before though, quarterback battles can extend beyond the preseason camps, but that will all depend on how Zeon performs through the first few weeks of the season.
