Eric Ward third team QB in the CAA? Some of those coaches need to have a lobotomy. We’re talking about the QB of the No. 1 team in the country and 11-0 if Andrew Howard’s FG attempt vs. Villanova is a few feet to the right.

Mike Harris November 23, 2009 at 6:12 pm

Well, probably because of the running of Forte *** oh, wait. He’s also third team.
