You're focusing on the wrong thing entirely. Red zone struggles are a symptom, not the disease. I watched Jim Christopherson's teams for years, and let me tell you, you don't fix a 52% red zone rate by swapping quarterbacks. You fix it with an offensive line that can get a push and a play-caller with guts. This reminds me of the '87 Cobbers, who could move the ball between the 20s with anyone under center, but inside the red zone, we ran the same three plays. The problem was the scheme, not the quarterback. Vanderbilt's issue is likely a lack of physical identity, something that can't be fixed by just hoping a new guy throws a better fade route. You build that identity in August with two-a-days, not by debating which quarterback has more "potential" in some spring scrimmage. These kids today want to throw it every down inside the ten. Sometimes you just need to hand it to a fullback and tell the line to move the man in front of them. That's how we won the MIAC in '94. Until they figure that out, it won't matter if they start a senior or a freshman. They'll both be facing the same wall.
