QB Competition Open Again
From the Gainesville Sun:
So who will start against Weber State? Will it be Funaki? Is Graunke back in the mix? I'll steal this poll from SportsHawaii.com, and ask:
McMackin declared his quarterback position as "open" following the game, saying that Funaki performed best. He did not put a specific timetable on the return of Tyler Graunke, the projected preseason starting quarterback. Graunke recently returned to the team after he resolved some undisclosed issues.UPDATE (8/31/08): The Gainesville Sun didn't get it completely right.
Coach Greg McMackin “opened” the QB position after today’s 56-10 loss at Florida. Then he quickly pulled back, saying he had to look at the film first.In any case...

Funaki looked the best by far. He deserves a shot.
It's great that Alexander and Rausch are bigger and taller and throw the ball further, but i'd rather have the more accurate guy who knows what he's doing.

Funaki has that extra intangible that allows him to do things that the other QBs may not have yet. Inoke was able to scramble when he needed to and yet he had could make good throws when he needed to while scrambling. Doing things in practice when it doesn't count is much different than in a high pressure game when every decision counts. Colt was great at that and Inoke seems to have it also.
