That doesn't mean anything. If JR is only slightly injured, KF needs to make Purdon't have to game plan for 2 qb's. That is the smart thing to do.
An interesting angle would be Rudock starts Saturday and tears it up. 2 weeks of opinions coming from all directions at that point.
Purdue will have to prepare for both starters. With one QB you put 9 in the box and shut down the short passing game. The other QB....well let's just say it's not as easy to game plan for.Rudock should be listed as the starter, tbh, but Beathard should start. Why tip your hand to an opponent?
Fine with this.
A BETTER angle would be Jake getting rested if his knee is tweaked again. Given our low margin for error, team-wise/overall, staying with the momentum of CJ and resting Jake is the best bet.
But...IF he starts and tears it up, don't worry , the anti-KF crowd will say it's "just" Purdue.
Yeah, playing Beathard this week and "resting" Rudock would be the best thing for this team right now. Carry the momentum over ride that wave. However, I think it's just a hip bruise for Rudock and not his knee....could be wrong.
