Quarterbacks 2011

Collin Klein, Sammy Lamur and Justin Tuggle. That's the choices the coaching staff has for the QB's in 2011 (I am counting Daniel Sams to redshirt).

While I saw Collin Klein do fairly well in 2010 (of course there was the Texas win with Klein running all over the Longhorn defense), here's to hoping that he does some good things in 2011. I thought early on in the Colorado game in Boulder he did some nice things throwing the ball (until injury happened).

He has some great size and speed, but I have yet to be really impressed with his passing skills, or more to the point, being able to read a defense whilst under pressure. People can point out that in the spring game he threw the ball nicely, but take in consideration he was facing the 2nd team defense (and that 2nd team defense would be beat by Washburn's offense).

SLamur is never going to be K-State's QB, so let's get this out of the way. That is unless Klein and Tuggle get injured (please no).

While Tuggle had the spring to get a start on the K-State offense, that's really not a whole lot of time to determine what he can or can't do. I'm really hoping that he steps up and pushes Klein to be a better QB, or pushes past Klein.

GRADE: C+

*FINAL: I see Klein as the #1 QB throughout the year. He'll struggle throwing the ball, but run the zone read quite well.
