This is from an article that Brandon just did on the WR's. They are talking about how important it is for the WR's to work with the QB's, and how each QB is different. C.J. Johnson is talking about being back by mid-August, and it will depend upon how his knee goes as to if and how many games he might miss. He did mention that Okwoli's surgery and recovery is about a month ahead of C.J.'s, so it looks like it is a good shot that Okwoli will be back for Fall Camp and the start of the regular season, but not so much for C.J.
I thought that all of this talk about adding new QB's over the summer was interesting. Vigen mentions that the Pokes are down in numbers on scholarship QB's. From these comments it appears that the coaching staff will be seriously looking to get another grad transfer QB in before next season starts. They also talk about Chambers a little, but he is already counted in the numbers. There are two W/O QB's that I am aware of, one from a HS in Colorado and the other a JC QB that was originally from Omaha, NE.. Neither one of these guys do I get the impression are anyone that they are talking about when adding another scholarship QB. I haven't been looking at them too closely, but what grad transfer QB's from a Pro Set are out there....and will be maybe deciding in the next couple of weeks? My take on things, no matter if Bohl names a starting QB after Spring Ball, the position is still very much up for grabs when fall camp comes around.
Per Brandon:
"Added Johnson: “It’s very important, and it’s definitely something that we have to work on this summer. Especially with all the new quarterbacks it looks like are going to be joining us over the summer.”
"Price also alluded to the Cowboys having “a lot of new quarterbacks” this summer. Michigan graduate transfer Wilton Speight, who was reportedly considering Wyoming, recently committed to UCLA. Still, might the quarterback competition consist of players who aren’t yet in Laramie?
“Well, we’ll have to see,” Wyoming offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Brent Vigen said. “We’re short numbers, from a scholarship perspective, so we’ll have to see what the next few weeks bring I guess.”
The Cowboys will also add a scholarship quarterback this summer in three-star signee Sean Chambers. But whoever is throwing the ball next season, it won’t be a 6-foot-5 gunslinger from Firebaugh, California. (Even if Chambers is 6-foot-3 and from nearby Kerman.)"
