With Stephen Threet mostly likely out against Minnesota this week due to a concussion, The starting job would go to walk-on QB Nick Sheridan, followed by freshman (now turned slot receiver) Justin Feagin.

• David was a three-star QB from Statesboro, Ga. in 2006


• He was rated the 33rd Pro Style QB in that class (No. 1 was Matthew Stafford, No. 2 Mitch Mustain, and No. 12 Sam Bradford).


• David is 6-foot-6 and runs a very slow 5.12 40. (that speed is a clue!)


• David played in two games for the Wolverines in 2007: Notre Dame and Minnesota.


• In high school, David threw 194-of-395 passes for 3,042 yards, with 27 touchdown passes and nine interceptions over three years.


• His team in his senior year went 15-0 and claimed the state championship.

My guess is David had a nice high school career, where he didn't exactly light up the stat sheet. He is 6-foot-6, 212 pounds and fits the Lloyd Carr "big lumbering QB" model. I would imagine his lack of speed and mobility makes him a sitting duck in Rich Rod's offense.

With that said, if he can hit a WR on a crossing route, throw a screen pass, or hit a wide open running back running down the sideline, get him in there!

What does Michigan have to lose? Nick Sheridan doesn't have the arm strength to get the ball downfield or across the field. Give David some playing time!
