We’re still counting down the days until the Virginia Cavaliers’ home opener against Richmond, and in the meantime we’re breaking down the Cavaliers’ quarterback situation. Mendenhall’s first season with the team was a trial and error sort of era with Matt Johns and Kurt Benkert. Benkert ultimately won the starting slot and stayed there through the 2017 season. Mendenhall relied heavily on the transfer QB’s maturity and his ability to make passes, but as his tenure at Virginia continues, so does his ability to begin to build his own QB system similar to the one he developed at BYU.
