Not that we don't trust our guy @stoneySIOUX but here's the official:

Why the transfer QB from Mary (Hentges) and a HS QB Sulik?
Normal rotation plus backfill for Schuster's departure?
Bring both to get the QB room back to five (was four all season)?
Prep for an all-Romfo two RB pro-set backfield (with Feeney or Kaminsky at QB)?
I'm not into crime stats. Instead ...
So the play-in 8-9 game is hosted by the 1 seed.
That means to advance an 8 or 9 will have to win three games (of potentially four) in the 1 seed's rink over not sure how many days (four? five?). Ouch.
That's 'cause college makes you dumber.
Proof?
- show up at 18 and you know it all
- leave at 21-22 and you know all the things you don't know
- net effect: dumber
