Four years of stability behind center is a rare gift for a college football program. UB's twice had it during their division one history and not surprisingly each four year starter took the Bulls to a bowl game. When Licata left UB had an heir apparent in the person of Zach Maynard, although he left when Turner Gill left.
This time, however, there is no clear cut choice to take the reins. Back when the season ended I would have put my money on Tyree Jackson, an impressively built three star quarterback who we wrested from the hands of PJ Fleck and Western Michigan.
