Pac-12 Hotline Quarterback Comfort Quotient: Assessing the QB rooms across the conference with most teams' rosters set for spring ball.
Jon Wilner The San Jose Mercury News No conference will feature a better array of starting quarterbacks in 2023 than the Pac-12, which claims the reigning Heisman Trophy winner , at least two contenders for the ’23 Heisman , plus a slew of gifted newcomers and experienced veterans.
But there’s more to quarterback play than the quality of the starter. The Quarterback Comfort Quotient takes the backups into account as well. Teams with solid options are best equipped to navigate the season. The first QBCQ of 2023 examines the quarterback depth across the conference in its current form. We’ll publish a revised version after spring practice and a third edition at the close of training camp.Top backup: Dylan Morris
Comment: The Hotline currently gives the Huskies a slight edge over USC, although both are worthy of the top spot. While the difference between Penix and Williams is on the margins — they are ideal for their respective playbooks — we would favor Morris, who’s five years out of high school and has almost 500 career attempts, by a significant margin over either of USC’s inexperienced backups.
