    To be fair, Retting was indeed mentioned by Les multiple times in the spring. I watched all of the pressers after practices and they weren't all prompted questions about Rettig. Harris and Jennings just started getting more and more pub. Many leading questions about the two grew because those 2 just made more sense as likely starters as spring went on.

    This is a great example of why speculation of what is really happening on the team is so futile. The reporters see only a fraction of what happens and report even less. Many here speculate on little if any information. To me it shows most points made here are based on opinion not any knowledge.

    If they're good enough to earn their reps, they'll get them. Rettig obviously did not feel he was in that position.

    Can you show me anything to the contrary, other than clinging onto his scholarship status for dear life? Considering the decision that he made, he obviously felt that he would not be part of the picture in the near future. What do you propose the coaches do to get him to stick around? Give him some pity reps?

    No, but I also don't think it's the end of the world, either.
    Rettig obviously didn't, so what I think is irrelevant.

    So, you can't think of any walk-on quarterback who has ever played?

    So, you can't actually say that he was passed on the depth chart by a walk-on?

    Ever heard of Brandon Weeden? He's in the NFL now.

    Actually Red we did have one who started...the kid who transferred from Harvard (and back) a few years ago. He started a couple of games before he was hurt.
