Do we think Ty wins the Heisman?

He should be working on year 3 as a starter.

Agree 100%, but for whatever reasons or reason he didn't start those games is likely what has driven him to keep honing his craft.

I know there is NO WAY to replicate a game situation (especially ones like against UGA on the road OR UT at home last week) but so far what Ty has done in prepping for his time looks like it worked.

I sure hope other young QBs (especially those we are recruiting) don't miss out on how sitting a year or two isn't a kiss of death but instead may be to your advantage.

NFL quarterbacks with a higher amount of college game experience may have a better success rate but not necessarily because they played more in college. They likely have more college experience because they have a higher talent level than most, which has a bigger impact on their success rate in the NFL. I suspect the sample size of NFL quarterbacks with only one year of college game experience is small and that most players with NFL success, especially NFL-star success, earned starting positions early in their college career.

Correlation does not always point to cause. Giving a player in Simpon's situation another year as a college starter would likely benefit his entrance into the NFL but it may not make as much difference as the statistics indicate.

Getting drafted by a good team who isn't going to throw you into the fire without a functional offensive line like Bryce at Carolina is the most important part. I know you have to produce, but you still need time to develop and adjust to the intensity of the game.
