I think Silvers is in the advantage right now. Pruitt will get playing time if he wins the starting position or not. I think it'll be a lot like Corey and Deon but honestly I kind of want only one QB. T-day showed that Pruitt and Silvers were the two best QBs on the team. I expect a ton from both of these guys!

We have a 3-Star JUCO QB listed 4th on the depth chart in Connor Bravard. He has a 67-2 record between high school and junior college. Played for the #2 JUCO team in the country. No matter who wins the QB battle, I'm pretty sure we're in good hands based solely on that observation.
That said, having watched them, any of them could do the job. We are deeper at QB by ten miles than we have ever been. I love what Pruitt brings to the table in his mobility and for that reason I'd want him #1. He can certainly make the throws as well, tossing 45 TDs with only 7 INTs and 1 Sack last season. Silvers is our future in my opinion, where Pruitt is our right now. Silvers was ESPNs #27 ranked QB out of high school. They are the Top two right now and are also my Top 2 with Pruitt being my preference.
Personally I'd like to shake things up a bit. Defenses catch up with you if you do the same stuff year in year out. That's why I don't want Silvers as #1 and Pruitt in the Wildcat like the last two seasons. I'd like to see Pruitt in the role of a Haugabook/Aplin type QB and have someone else as a true #2 backup QB.
If anyone is worried about Pruitt's height, remember that Dwight Dasher (MTSU) was also 5-10. Drew Brees (NFL, Saints) is listed at 6'0", though some say he's really 5'11". If he can do it the NFL, 5'10" can work in the SBC. He won't be drafted as a quarterback and will most likely by signed free agent as an athlete.
