1) Lockie and Morgan M. must suck (or...wait for it...need more time).
2) It could be a win-win for both VA and Oregon or something happens to VA during season (he missed 4 games with injury last year and is prone to cramping) but Oregon at least has those games to give their other QBs more in-season development.
3) It would suck big wang for VA to not win the job but he must have felt he needed to take a step up to get more attention from NFL scouts.
4) UCLA must have gotten involved too late since he's from Pasadena and they return everyone except their previous starting QB.
5) More than anything, this helps Oregon because they get more competition at the QB spot and if VA gets hurt, they'll simply turn to the other QBs they had on the roster before VA joined them.
6) It will be interesting to see how Oregon's offense changes and regardless, it should be easier to defend than Mariota running it. Even on the read-option, scrape exchanges should be more successful since an OLB attacking Mariota was mostly futile since Mariota was 6'4" 215 lbs with 4.4 wheels while Adams is 5'11", a buck ninety, and more like a 4.5 or 4.6 guy.
7) At least point, it's still hard not to see Oregon favored by double digits @ Husky Stadium in 2015 (even accounting for a 4 point boost due to Husky Stadium noise / playing on the road).
