So Quiv is gone. In spite of the progress he made this spring, this isn't too much of a surprise. Frankly, the surprise was he was there for spring practice at all -- he'd been looking around for months at TCU and SMU, especially. So he was probably going to be in the 2-deep, but let's get to brass tacks here: he wanted to start. He wasn't consistent enough, reliable enough or good enough to do that at A&M, so he's gone. He has tremendous potential, but he has not realized it yet.
Did his displeasure affect DaMarkus Lodge? Yeah, it probably did. That's why I was surprised he was back in the spring. It's a bummer all the way around.
