There is talk Rypien could start at Boise St this year. I was hoping he would stay at WSU, but I can understand doing what Peyton Manning essentially did. Playing in the shadow of your uncle must have gotten old.

He was perfect for Leach's system. He was running a five wide receiver shotgun offense at least since eighth grade when I first saw him. It was bizarre to see a 13 year old scan the field and hit his third option when most teams in the league were running some variant of the ancient wing T.
