UVA offensive coordinator breaks down how the Cavaliers are evaluating the fall camp performances of quarterbacks Tony Muskett and Anthony Colandrea.
starting quarterback job is ongoing and unresolved into the final week of fall camp. With Tony Muskett and Anthony Colandrea continuing to make their case for the starting spot ahead of the much-anticipated release of the week 1 depth chart next week, those who have been looking for any clues as to which way Tony Elliott and the UVA coaching staff are leaning have been left largely unsatisfied.
"With the history of injury and different rotations, we want them comfortable playing with a guy who might not be a starter, but that could in the starting lineup," said Kitchings. "That’s part of training camp. We have 20 practices. So, we have Tony Muskett have his opportunities with the first-team O-Line and then Colandrea has his opportunities, and then vice versa, they’re working with the second team.
“Then, we take into account, right, who are the skill players around them? A dropped ball is not something that counts against them and their completion percentage that we’re tracking," Kitchings said. "It’s about the accuracy and the decision-making that goes into it.”
