Since some have asked about the QB situation, I will say two things. One, I am glad that Cobb has been moved back to receiver full-time during spring practice. While the coaches have said they still plan to line him up under center a few times during games, it sounds like his main focus will be on receiving. And that's a good thing, because Cobb has a chance to be one of the best WR's in the SEC by the time his senior year rolls around, much like Keenan Burton. And that's also the position where his best pro prospects lie.
The second thing, though, is that while I would prefer to have Hartline at QB over Cobb, it has more to do with wanting to leave Cobb at WR rather than being overly impressed with Hartline. I'm still not sold on him being the right guy for that spot. He seems to be okay as a caretaker QB, which is fine, but I want more than that. IMO, Morgan Newton is the guy to take the position to another level, and I feel he has a good chance to come in this fall and win the job. If he can't beat out Hartline to start at QB the first game, it will be mainly because of his lack of experience. I do think that for UK's team to reach their full potential next year, though, Newton needs to be the QB.
He may end up being very good. I doubt though he is ready to start in the SEC as a freshman and if UK has to resort to a true freshman QB that is trouble.
