I was at practice on Tuesday and Lanning was getting #1 reps with Noland getting a majority of the #2 reps. Starcevich and DeLira split #3 reps. I think you're misgrading DeLira.
Oh great, another "insider"

We should remind ourselves that some of the talent scouts in these threads were the same ones saying 8 wins last year was possible and 6 wins were probable!
It should be noted that Jacob Park has not been really playing football for a while. There will definitely be a learning curve and a transition back to the game. But he does have talent as evidenced by his high rating coming out of HS.
I think from the little knowledge that Campbell had on Lanning when he got the ISU job, he felt he needed to bring in at least 2 QB's that could have a chance to beat out Lanning.
I don't know how an incoming head coach could have watched the few games that Lanning played last year and not felt the need to try to recruit over him. Campbell probably watched a few game tapes from last year and determined immediately that we might need an upgrade at the QB position right away.
Now.... as offseason workouts and spring practice have gone on, it appears that Campbell has warmed up to the idea that maybe Lanning is good enough to be our game one starter? I think he has seen some improvement in him and sees what kind of leader he is.
But initially, Campbell didn't have any time to work with and made the quick determination that if nothing else, we needed some competition brought in at the QB position. And he's done that with Park, Kempt, and Noland. I think we'll have a VERY healthy competition now at that position and may the best guy win.
But I would guess that Campbell's views on Lanning's ability have grown somewhat over the winter months.

Isn't it awful when we have posters on here with real information? There was zero speculation in his post. Fitzy is a WRNL contributor, so it's not as if he's a random dude posting with an agenda.
Personally, I want more of this kind of "inside info". I appreciate hearing what people have seen or heard from inside the program. Sure beats everyone just trying to guess what's going on.
Now, you also have to realize that someone might be just feeding you a bunch of made up crap, but I can judge that for myself. Knowing what the coaches have been saying in public about Noland thus far though, I can easily believe he is sitting as the #2 QB right now and getting the 2nd most reps in spring practice.
Oh great, another "**** wad"
His info is correct
Staff didn't bring a transfer in to play backup.
I thought DeLira already moved to DB or WR
