Jerry regressed as the season went along and finished with 11 interceptions and < 60% completion rate both of which were worse than last year. I would excuse his dismal play against Tarlton cuz he probably shouldn’t have been playing much less kept in the game after it was clear he was struggling. He has the physical tools as does Sulik. Whichever of the 2 can learn to get through their reads quicker and develop the confidence and leadership skills needed to audible out of poor play calls should be an upgrade over this past year. A QB coach is essential in their development. Looking back, I bet Schmidt wishes he had Freuchte coach WR’s or something and then bring in a QB coach. 2 Quote

A QB coach is essential in their development. Unfortunately this also lends itself to the argument that we need a new direction offensively since Fruechte has connected himself to that position. I know it may sound like these things are not mutually exclusive (in other words we could keep Fruechte as OC and just hire a QB coach) but I believe they are in fact mutually exclusive. Another issue is that in this day and age audibles out of calls is entirely on the OC/play caller and not on the QB/QB coach. UND’s OC has the ability to run a check with me at the line, seeing what the front and coverage alignment (2 high vs 1 high) will be and then adjust from there. If that is not happening, then it’s on the OC, not the QB. Not to mention the OC is controversially on the field and not in the box where many play callers are located for strategic purposes. Just my 2 cents. We will see … Quote
