Between The Eers: Rich Rodriguez Teases West Virginia's QB Plan for 2025

In this story:
West Virginia head coach Rich Rodriguez is going to tell you how it is. He's not afraid to admit when things don't look so hot at a certain position or side of the ball, and he's also not shy from admitting when he has a good problem on his hands.
The latter is what he has with this group of quarterbacks. At the start of camp, he expected one or two guys to truly separate themselves from the rest of the pack, but they continued repping all five throughout the month of August, believing each of them brings something to the table.
During his coach's show on Monday night, he hinted at the team's plan to play multiple quarterbacks, not just this week against Robert Morris, but every week throughout the season.
"It’s a long season. It’s safe to say you’ll probably see all five of them at some point. When you have a pretty solid competition like we have at quarterback, you have to legitimately give them all a shot. Now, if there was one that was way behind, like, your time is going to come down the road…but right now, they’ve all done enough to warrant getting reps.”
Is this a good decision? We discuss that and the future of the position on today's episode of Between The Eers.
