Apparently urban is saying Braxton will be the starter next year if he's healthy. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

I have zero problem with Braxton staying the starter. Barrett is doing quite well but still isn't in Miller's zip code yet. Even if Barrett gets close to Miller's ability, Miller still has over 2 1/2 years of starting experience and will have four years in the system, compared to one year starting and two years in the system for Barrett.

He's not in his zip code regarding what? As a runner? No, he isn't. As an actual QB? I disagree.

I don't think the zone read Is a Miller strong suit. There are some things I think you have a solid point on, but you whiffed on this one

Miller was bad at it early on but has improved (which he should after being the starter for 2 1/2 seasons).

@Tanner said it best above: "Personally, I'm going to need a lot more than 2 good games against 2 terrible defenses before I put him above the 2 time defending big ten offensive player of the year on the depth chart."

Oh I agree that Barrett's sample size is far too small. But I don't agree that Miller's decision making -especially the zone read-is his strong suit. His physical abilities are off the charts though.

Why are we talking about a comment that really has no relevance on who will be the starting QB next year? All Urban did was show support for a guy that is hurt, and make sure the guy playing knows he has a long way to go. Nothing wrong with the comment at all IMO. Urban seems to spend quite a bit of time focused on "today", can't imagine he is worried about next season just yet.
