You have Vincent Davis listed as a starter this week
PAT NARDUZZI: You said I do have him listed?
Co-starter, three "ors." What has he done as a true freshman to earn that opportunity, and what have you seen him out of him that wants you to make keep giving him the ball?
PAT NARDUZZI: Again, AJ Davis, it's the Davis twins right now, but AJ Davis has done a nice job, and Vince is a young kid that I'm glad we put him in at the end of that Virginia game just to see how he'd react, what he'd do. I mean, if he fumbled the ball in the last two snaps, he might not have played at all the other day. We'd have been like, he's out. Give him the hook. But he's mature. He's loose. He doesn't play tight. He doesn't get nervous. He doesn't trip and fall down.And that's what I've seen in camp when we gave him opportunities to run in there with the ones. That's kind of -- we didn't get a chance to play him early in that Virginia game. Maybe we made a mistake. Sometimes that happens. But it's a big game and you don't want to put a freshman out there.So you just may see him do a few other things this week, too. But he's kind of a gamer. But he's also a practice player, so we've been very, very impressed with Vince in that respect.
