Mentions it around the 9 minute mark. Talks about he can run the option and how he believes only Cam and Tebow can run it well in the NFL

He does stress though that RGIII is a passer first, but with other skills

Sexy Rexy's reaction when he asked coach Shanahan what are the chances if he will ever be the the starter again.

That's a classic. I could really see that happening/happened.

Re: RGIII Named Starter

You do not give up what we gave up and then let them watch from the sidelines. RG3 is the starter. Period.

Reading NFL defenses? This is the highest level folks! No college team, especially those crappy big 12 defenses, will run the complex defenses that NFL teams do. NFL teams disguise things to try to confuse young QB's and they will confuse RG3 just like they would any young rookie QB coming into the league. From everything I have heard about RG3, he is a film rat and that will help with these complex defenses. He will need some time and I am 100% positive he will pick up things on tape as his career goes along and he will be less and less confused the more he plays.

Man to man, cover 2, 3 or 4 or zone blitzes its not rocket science. RG3 will master them all!

Moreover what I was eluding to in saying it's a hopeful prospect applies more to the coaching staffs willingness to adopt a less popular package in order to facilitate, and reinforce the strengths of the personel. The hopefulness spawns from the logic that this microcosm could eventually permeate the overall mentality.
Dude. Seriously? This is a football forum not a PhD program. Using a thesaurus doesn't make your points anymore valid or correct than others'.

You could just say you "think the option will be used to keep defenses honest, and using the option would suit our team's strength. Hopefully Shanny continues to employ strategies and tactics based on our personnel." Much more succinct and to the point rather than unclear jargon. Might make you seem less pretentious too.
