7th in Rushing in the SoCon in a Balanced Offense.
1 spot ahead of the only other QB in the Top 10 in Rushing...who operated in a run-based offense (only avg'd 2.8 completions/game vs. 19.3 for Russ)
5th in Passing - ahead of 3 of the 4 QB's that are going to the Playoffs
5th in Passing Efficiency - ahead of 2 of the 4 QB's going to the Playoffs
Intangibles, Leadership, and TOUGHNESS are, at worst, tied for 1st with any other QB in the SoCon...and I don't think even the most rabid fans of other programs would argue that point.
Bottom Line - I wouldn't trade #7 for any of the other QB's in the SoCon...so....WHY NOT JOHN!
