Pat Bostick gets a piece in his local paper. Glowing quotes from Coach Wannstedt abound.

Wannstedt said that after meetings with coaches following the season, Bostick has worked extremely hard and done everything the coaching staff has asked of him.

“Since the season was over, I don’t think there is a player at any position on this team who has worked harder to better himself,” Wannstedt said. “He has lost 18 pounds, and has done everything physically to improve himself. But as in all situations, everyone has to go out and prove themselves again.”

Meaning, despite the accolades, he’ll have to battle to keep his starting role. Wannstedt confirmed the quarterback slot will be a wide-open competition this spring.

With Spring Practice just a couple weeks away we’ll get a chance to see how much Bostick’s physical conditioning has changed.
