From the outside looking in, Graham’s decision to move Jace Gill from receiver to quarterback to replace multi-year standout Ty Thompson might look like a red flag. 

If you didn’t know any better, you might misdiagnose that development as a sign of poor program depth at the most high profile position on the football field.

But make no mistake, that would be a misdiagnosis. 

While the speedy Gill was previously an explosive utility player for the Steers, rushing for a combined 778 yards and eight touchdowns and receiving for 542 yards and four more scores from 2022-2024, he is a quarterback by trade. And in returning to his natural position, the senior is continuing — not breaking — a lineage of excellent quarterback play at GHS dating back to Case McCoy’s arrival in 2006.
