That being said, there is still something good in having a versatile guy with his hands on the ball on every play when you run an offense like FAU did last season. Driskel had some nice runs, but imagine somebody like Johnson getting 10 carries a game where he gets to hit the outside. The offense has to be able to at least scare some people from loading up on Motor, but that can also happen with quick passes to a stud WR group OR with the RPO - tackle Motor and watch Johnson burn you for 20+ yards sprinting around the end.
I hope one of the guys steps up and shows he can take control of the offense (and is a capable passer), but if there is doubt I wouldn't be surprised to see Johnson as the starter given his running ability. Having 2 really good ones and a capable 3rd stringer you are trying to groom is ideal. Having more than that after the season starts seems like a waste to me.

The style that both of them will play make them one hit away from finishing the season in sweatpants. I can’t see anyone going anywhere.
