For the mailbag, I heard you make the point on Press Row that UT not naming a starter is a good move because it makes GT prepare for 2 different style of QB. But how much sense does it make that the shark lover at Florida says that all 3 of his guys could face Michigan? Is there a point of diminishing returns?

Hangtime14 –

There likely is a point of diminishing return, and while it may be splitting hairs, there is a difference potentially between the scenarios based on quantity.

Now each case may be wide open because none of the quarterbacks in Knoxville or Gainesville has grabbed the job. That could be possible. But for there to be three guys twisting and turning wit the Gators, it seems more likely for that to be the case there.
