Crisp, could you make the argument cutting Watson and Wuerffel was Snyder's way of appeasing to both Cerrato and Spurrier? Sort of like when Norv wanted Dilfer and Westbrook (if I remember right) and Casserley wanted Shuler and Galloway, and we got one of each?

Plain and simple, there is no way Rock hit's the hole faster than Bett's, Bett's has been unfortunate in the injury dept. but never sustained an injury in college, I think his injuries have been coincidental, he tried to come back to soon last year with the forearm injury, and it never really healed, Bett's can be a very, very, good back, nothing I saw from Rock last year told me that he can't be replaced, he's solid, but he will alway's be a tweener.

No, because in this case, Spurrier wanted both Watson and Wuerffel. Cerrato wanted McCullough over Watson, and didn't want Wuerffel. Spurrier lost on both counts.

woah, just looked, watson had 800 yds in 2002, 23 kick returns, 0 fumbles, not bad for a backup.

seems like cutting him was dumb; those numbers beat rock in all categories...

Oops I mean to say McCullough, but I see your point. Thanks JC!
