MIAMI GARDENS, FL – SEPTEMBER 3: Malik Rosier /

Richt discussing the reasoning behind rotating four players at quarterback to give the four players who a competing for a chance for a chance to start.

"“The road map is to compete and compete with as many guys as you think have a realistic shot at winning the job. In this case, it’s four guys…When you rep that many guys, it’s hard to get the continuity you want….we’re trying to learn as much as we can. Sometimes, if you’re with the one unit [first string], and you might have better protection, then I can see how you react when things are going good. Then if you get with the two unit, against the number one defense, and the protection might not be holding out as good as with the ones, I got to see how you’re going to react to that. I got to see how you react. If a guy misses a block, what are you going to? Are you going to secure the ball and get what you can get? Find somebody and run out of bounds or run down the field and slide – how are you going to react? How are you going to react if you throw a pick – what are you going to do after that?”"
