Texas Article - Texas is finding a way to use two QBs?

In today's San Antonio Express-News.

Pertaint info:
When Texas players reported for the beginning of fall camp last week, coach Mack Brown even acknowledged that the Longhorns had more questions than answers as they readied for their Aug. 30 opener against Florida Atlantic.

WHERE TO PUT JOHN CHILES
Chiles completed just 1 of 9 passes last season, and so far his throwing technique is still a work in progress. However, the Longhorns know they can be a better team with him on the field. His athleticism forces defenses to take notice, and Chiles can change a game with his feet in a hurry.Offensive coordinator Greg Davis is working on a package that keeps QB Colt McCoy and Chiles on the field at the same time. It has various looks — sometimes with McCoy and Chiles both in the backfield to take the snap, or sometimes with Chiles out wide.“I’m really excited about the different packages,” Chiles said. “It does feel good to be out on the field, making plays.”

QUAN COSBY, JORDAN SHIPLEY AND … FILL IN THE BLANK

UT needs to find a third receiver. Actually, the Longhorns need to find six receivers, but so far, Malcolm Williams is standing out as the guy to be the No. 1 back-up. The 6-foot-3 freshman has all the technical skills to get off coverage and get open — and he has the hands to make catches.“He’s got really unique speed for his size,” Shipley said of Williams. “He loves the game, and he’s always trying to learn.”

I haven't seen these guys play, but the more elaborate they get, and the more they experiment, the better for us.  No matter what, I still think this is gonna be a real exciting game.  Is MTSU still using two QB's this year?

Chiles is very fast and a great runner.  He also has a problem hitting the broad side of a barn from 10 feet out.  He has the arm… but his accuracy is terrible.
