Re: NorCal QB Ikaika Seeking to transfer

Reality is: there is no quick fix. It will take several years of recruiting and development for Rolo to get the QB position to where he wants it to be. Just hope Ikaika can handle the load in 2016, he is a heavy favorite based purely on experience.
I think they can squeeze a serviceable season out of him... if they make the qb read option a bigger part of the offense (which is what I think Chow should have just done last season). Mack made a bowl game with Inoke Funaki at QB doing basically the same thing.

With the late JC transfers, this is chronological depth chart of the scholarship QBs:

Woolsey, R-Sr (1 to play 1)
Reilly, R-So (3 to play 3)
Brown, So (4 to play 3)
Brownholtz, So (4 to play 3)
Zwahlen, R-Fr (4 to play 4)
McDonald, Fr (5 to play 4)

There's no one in the Junior class and it would have been ideal if we had one QB in each of the 5 classes. But given the situation, it looks like we have a lot of young arms to work with. Hopefully one rises above the others by next year.

It's looking pretty clear that Woolsey will start in 2016. Whether he holds the position all season is another story, but the story of fall camp will be: who cements the #2 spot? A lot of names in the hat.

Unless some stud HS or JC QB is landed in the upcoming recruiting class, the QB that earns the #2 spot is likely the leader to win the job in 2017...and would likely be the starting QB for at least 2 seasons.

Also add Marshall Transfer Kyle Gallup, RS Soph.
if he is eligible in 2016 he will have 3 to play 3
else 3 to play 2
Oh and he's from Ohio
