if they weren't serious about giving him a shot this season as the starter.

By all accounts he's as good as advertized.

And I say this as a guy who really hopes Hall or Romney prevail in Fall camp. I do think if either Romney or Conover wins the start, though, that Roderick would work Hall in as a wildcat option we'd turn to at least 3-4 times a game. A wildcat with a big greenlight to throw the ball.
