My Q & A with ESPN on John Chiles
Bruce, Dallas: John Chiles is a freak athlete that should be on field. He will not be a pro QB. HE should ask to be moved to TE or receiver - thoughts?
Tim Griffin: (4:29 PM ET ) Bruce: That's probably a wise assessment. Chiles has had trouble passing the ball this season. I think Mack Brown has almost given up on his "Q offense," although I wouldn't be surprised to see him show up on the field some tomorrow.
Who knows, he might be that big receiver for Texas I was talking about earlier?
Thoughts? Look, Chiles will not be a pro QB and he is hurting his next level chances by resisting a change. I think he should focus on beefing up weights and pas catching abilities to be a receiver or tight end. Next year, we have some highly ranked freshman QB posiibiliites and they should be the focus of learning under a senior Colt.

Where has his resistance ever been documented? Maybe I’m missing some secret resource, but it seems like fans ascribe their own stories to why a player hasn’t done this or that according to what the fan would prefer.
That said, I do agree he would benefit from some kind of switch. I like the (new?) category of “ATHLETE” in football, and Chiles definitely fits the bill – but the coaches should figure out where he fits best.

Mack Brown
said during the off-season that Chiles wants to play QB, and they were going to respect his wishes.

yeah, but
I think people assume he is resistant to change, since when he arrived on campus he stated that he was interested in being QB and QB alone.
