GET HIM IN THERE.

Kiffin's job at this point is to keep this team going forward, play the guys that deserve it and that can potentially be major contributors next season. Get the young players on the job training -- Including Russell.

I'm not saying get him in there next week, but you have to start prepping him and getting him ready to get under the center by Thanksgiving and into the last month of the season.

You dont have to bombard him with the whole play-book. Granted, Young and Eli didnt miss the time JaMarcus did, but those teams geared their offense, their game plan and what they did scheme wise to the abilities of their respective QBs.

I agree, and nice write up.
