There has been a lot of talk about the steps that Texas A&M QB Marcel Reed needs to take for the upcoming season if the Aggies are to have the year that they want on the offensive side of the ball. There's been plenty of optimism about his ability to take those steps from within, but there are a lot of doubtful voices from the outside as well.
Some of that is a lack of actual attention to the way things are going in College Station, of course. But even so, that has affected the way that certain fans view Marcel for the upcoming year— skepticism towards the prospect that he will improve upon what we saw when he had to take over for Conner Weigman in the Florida game.
