It’s probably a combination of both but we’ll likely never know.

They questioned if Zeb should start over Trey Lance...it literally came down to "who would I rather not defend against"...so let's not put this beyond the staff to mess it up.

The fact they brought Zeb in at all with Trey waiting in the wings is telling as well, IMO…

That QB "battle" was never a battle. Coaches can do things to keep people happy. Especially at QB. Can you imagine if they named Cole starter for next year? They would lose Cam. Don't always have to trust what you read. That was never a battle. Trey was going to be that starter...but you know that.

They needed a backup. Unfortunately they brought in a QB who doesn't fit the offense but he was more of a coach and mentor.

Is it normal to bring in a P5 former starter to an FCS school to just be a back-up? Could be wrong there but seems like they brought him in to compete for the job…

True. Not many QBs fit a system that the QB is basically an extra running back.
Not many WRs for our current system either. This year our passing game was pathetic. We had ample time to develop it in games like Drake and Western I’ll but we passed even less on those types of games.
