If CJB and Ruddock are both injured on Saturday?

[khock]

Just playing the "what if" game and curious if Ruddock is dinged up enough and cannot play on Saturday and CJB gets injured or loses his helmet and has to leave the game for a play (or use a timeout) will Ferentz be forced to pull the redshirt off Tyler Wiegers? From the sound of things Ruddock injury isn't in that category but again ... what if?

Brandon Scherff played qb in high school I heard so bring in Ike for LTackle and have brandon do a qb sneak.

I thought they had another qb besides weighers

I think they will probably bring one of the walk on QBs for any oddities or put Bullock in the shot gun if it is just for a play.

If the game is not in doubt and something happens, I hope the coaches have a Plan C that does not involve buring Tyler's redshirt. From the sound of Kirk's presser, I think he does.

Ike played some QB in high school as well.

Play Weigers....we have QBs coming behind him, like Boyle and Beneventti....but, hopefully will not come to that.

Even if we are 24 points up halfway through the 3rd?

Ferentz has been working in his cave of solitude developing the three fullback, no quarterback, extra tight end and ghost linebacker, system of offense. He will unleash the dogs of bad offense against our most hated enemy, our super bowl, our rival, Purdue University.

khock, you should be ashamed of yourself for asking such a question.....why, what do you think will happen?

 

[Hawknick]

The other option would be red shirt freshman Justin Joyce.

Move Powell to QB and tell him to try and turn the corner.

Let's not go there ... too much of a negative vibe.

 

[thetrza]

yeah, i can't imagine a negative vibe in this place.

 

[sodakhawkeye]

The coaching staff does not want to burn a red shirt for 1 play. So if a helmet comes off and they need to come out, the coaches have a plan to cover these scenarios for that play without burning a red shirt

Run left, run right, repeat.

 

[DJL]

Move Powell to QB and tell him to try and turn the corner.

could he throw a pass to himself?

 

[biasedHAWKEYE]

could he throw a pass to himself?

I used to do that when I was a kid. Man, 17 was a tough age.

 

[OUTofTOWNHAWK]

If you look back through the years Iowa is ready for every situation. Well besides fake punts and onside kicks those are borderline cheating. They are plays built on lies. Now if things do get tricky I could see kirk taking delay of game after he takes a timeout to talk about it giving the Hawks plenty of time to figure out the situation.

 

[OUTofTOWNHAWK]

Actually kirk will just punt if this happens.

 

[Hawknick]

If it was one place for a helmet coming off it would clearly be Justin Joyce. He red shirted last year so he would not use up any elgibility to come in for one play.

If that scenario develops please don't let JJ throw the ball ... we could have even more QB controversy with the backup to the backup.
