[Husker] Tyler Gabbert leaves Mizzou

[Nick Chevance]

Something's always just a little strange in Columbia.  But perhaps the
depth chart isn't one of them.  Franklin, a sohomore, is a leader, a
Rivals top 5 QB coming in as a freshman, is like 6-2 and 225, and
played sparingly last year, mostly to run the ball.  He's got a good
arm and seems comfortable running the offense.  And remember that
Tyler isn't a clone of Blaine.  He's considerably shorter, a bit less
mobile (at least in high school) and may not possess that rocket arm
that is needed in that offense.  As much hype as the kid got (the
whole helicopter thing is just so funny) he is up against some pretty
stiff competition.  He may be now looking for a place where he can
play right away.

There must be a few DII schools looking for a QB.  8^)
