Cole Johnson and Gage Maloney are high quality quarterbacks, and either of them can lead this team. If you feel the need to denigrate our Cole or Gage, then your arguments for DiNucci are questionable to me. DiNucci has played well so far, but he played well to this point in the season last year. If DiNucci gets injured, Cole and/or Gage will step in and do a quality job a.k.a. Easton Stick when Carson Wentz was injured.

I personally like all our QB's and their abilities.

IMO the reverse is the problem. First, I completely agree that Cole and Gage are quality QBs. The issue I have is that Ben is being labeled a bad QB based on two games and the other two guys would be better than him. I disagree. The coaching staff put Ben in his second QB competition at JMU and came out on top. That's not a knock on Cole or Gage, but a show of confidence in Ben.
Everyone knows (Ben included) that he needs to make good decisions and aside from that one bad INT at WVU he has made pretty good decisions this year.
Ben has made some absolutely terrific throws at times this season. One this past weekend: a beautiful pass to Polk in the perfect spot that should have been a TD but Polk probably lost the ball in the sun.
Lastly, it's not like JMU fans are the only ones saying good things about DiNucci.
