Cody Thomas is Mayfield's backup

Bob confirmed at the presser. Says Thomas would've come in during bedlam if mayfield went down, and will be the #2 QB at the orange bowl.

looks like it's been that way since the TCU debacle...

Oklahoma football: Cody Thomas moves up the depth chart; Trevor Knight now third-string quarterback

 

[outofyourmind]

Pretty obvious from his performance in the TCU game that Knight doesn't want the job and doesn't want to be there.

Knight and everyone else has known that Mayfield was going to be the starter since halfway through last season. His work on the scout team solidified that.

That quarterback competition that happened in Spring and Summer ball? All window dressing and done partially for Knight's benefit.

He would have been great if the offense had truly become a read-type offense under Heupel...but Heupel couldn't gameplan it on a weekly basis and Knight certainly couldn't execute it on a weekly basis. Bad timing?

Anywho...yeah, I wish him well wherever he goes. I can't blame him for wanting to start somewhere. I don't see him being an NFL guy though. Tebow-esque.
