Written By Sammy Jacobs (@Hoosier_Huddle)

When the 2016 season ended in heart breaking fashion at Levi’s Stadium two things where clear about the quarterback situation at Indiana.

Two, starting quarterback Richard Lagow had left the door open for a massive quarterback competition in spring practice with his performance against Utah.

Who Will Be Number One? 2016 Indiana Hoosiers Quarterback Preview

Who Will Be Number One? 2016 Indiana Hoosiers Quarterback Preview

Just like that, one of the most prolific signal callers in Indiana history is gone. Nate Sudfeld is off to the NFL, after a remarkably efficient four-year career. As a senior in 2015, Nate led the Big Ten in passing yards per game, passing yards, total offense per game, total offense, touchdowns, passing, yards per completion, yards per attempt and TD-INT ratio. Sudfeld leaves Bloomington as IU’s all-time leader in passing touchdowns (61), passing yardage (7,879), 350-yard games (6), 300-yard games (11), 250-yard games (13), 200-yard games (19), four-touchdown games (5) and three-touchdown games (10),and is tied for first in 400-yard games (1).

He was underappreciated during his career, and his stellar play was not really praised until he either split snaps or missed time due to injury. Sudfeld had to share the spotlight during his career, until he was finally given the keys to the offense in his last two seasons. When he was on the field, he was one of the most productive quarterbacks in the nation, and productivity like that is really hard to replicate, let alone replace. Don’t tell that to Kevin Wilson and offensive coordinator Kevin Johns however, as that is exactly what they aim to do with a new group of quarterbacks in 2016.

Indiana Will Give All Quarterbacks a Fair Shot, But Won't Draw the Process Out

Indiana Will Give All Quarterbacks a Fair Shot, But Won't Draw the Process Out

While there will obviously be a starting quarterback named at some point, Coach Wilson gave no indication of that happening any time soon during Tuesday’s availability. He joked around on Monday in Chicago that Indiana will indeed use a quarterback this season, but we still don’t know who will take the first snap on September 1st in Miami after two days in the Windy City. Richard Lagow, Zander Diamont and Danny Cameron were all listed as co-starters on the new depth chart, and Wilson did little to indicate that this was untrue.
