What can Tommy Do?

Did the lack of scrambling and designed running from TA allow defenses to disguise coverages better this year? Could that be part of the reason for the increase in ints?
Yes. The advantage of a mobile threat at QB is that it forces D to pull a man down from coverage, which means easier/fewer reads and more single coverage.

TA's skill set was grossly mismanaged this season.
TA mismanaged his own skill set. Langsdorf did everything he could to help him. It showed early on and then Tommy reverted back to Hero mode and is directly responsible for losing 4 games.

 
Wtevr happened to Zack Darlington? He's more a pro style guy, was a 4* recruit, wanted by Urban Meyer and such.
He's one solid hit away from probably having permanent damage. Just an horned scholarship at this point.
isn't everyone 1 solid hit away from permanent damage? maybe we can say his risk is greater? if so i guess he is just an emergency QB to be used only if all other options are out.
He had 2 huge concussions and in one he was airlifted to the hospital. You don't mess with brain injuries like that, so basically pelini was being nice and let him have the scholarship despite the injury.
