I really hope we get a couple of great big uglies from USC, but I don't care if Mustain is a drama queen. We sure could use his experience and talent in 2010. I know this won't happen, but I sure wouldn't turn him down. Joe Willie Namath was a drama queen, but he could sure move the football down the field. Just win baby win!!!!! (within the rules).
Does it matter? Simms has done nothing in D-1, and Bray is barely at 200lbs. Mustain has experience (and success) in the SEC. He's more skilled than Simms by a mile, and maybe Bray. You got to take Mustain if he wants to come. What can hurt?
In part, 2005 was a function of a team split over allegiance to QB's.
The whole Mustain saga at Arkansas spells trouble for anyone who would take him in a situation where he and his family think he should be the starter and have the team built around him.
It can actually hurt alot. One of the few things UT's football team seems to have going for it right now is unity... an us against the world type of mentality. The risk of things being even uglier than many of us think is great if there's in-fighting. Mustain multiplies that risk many times over.
Mustain has publicly said he's staying at USC and will finish his college career there. He's not transferring to UT or any other school for that matter. Nice to think about but not going to happen. Further he gets a better degree from USC, I mean even UT alums realize we, as well as most of the SEC, are not nationally renown for our academic programs. (Vandy and maybe UF being the exceptions) From what I hear from family with USC ties and what I read, Mustain is focused on his degree as his top priority at this point. I know folks bleed football in the south - but for many, even scholarship athletes at UT, athletics is a means to an end.
