Quarterback remains work in progress for the Beacons

FB: Keefe and Tyler expected to play at Northern Iowa with Appel waiting in the wings

There’s an old adage in football that if you have two quarterbacks, you actually have none.

It’s a quote originally attributed to the legendary John Madden and if it’s ever used in print, there are several rules. One, it has to be referred to as an adage and two, someone in the comments section almost always disagrees and tends to cite cherry-picked statistics that a multi-quarterback system might actually work.

There’s also the possibility that Madden just wasn’t thinking big enough. In the case of the Valparaiso football team, the Beacons seem to be entering the 2024 season with three viable candidates to run the offense. And they nearly had a fourth.
