Nesbitt on the Verge of Stardom




I said Paul Johnson would make Josh Nesbitt a star. After sitting out much of the spring with injuries, Nesbitt has really started to make the transition. He is making big plays in practice with his arm and his feet. In fact, the entire offense has started to click-and this is against one of the elite defensive lines in all of college football.

From the AJC:
Quarterback Josh Nesbitt seems to be putting distance between himself and the candidates for the No. 2 job. Thursday, his pitches to the backs were as crisp as they have been, and he continues to show his speed and his willingness to take on tacklers head-on.

And a practice observer from Thursday's practice had this to say:
"Wow. Just wow. The offense is starting to click a lot earlier than anyone expected. Its amazing the potential this offense has. Josh Nesbitt has the starting spot locked up. He is playing GREAT. His passing has improved a lot. His pitches couldn't be any better. It was a great practice. When they scrimmaged the offense was moving the ball the best it has since PJ has took over."
