he's seeing a progression we're not in on. To contrast Pinkel and Odom, Pinkel stuck by guys because he saw where they were headed and loyalty sells to team members and recruits. Odom stuck to Kelly Bryant, I believe, because he saw the transfer market as a solution to recruiting shortcomings. Because recruiting wasn't the strongest, he was most likely going to fill holes with JUCOs and transfers so honoring a "deal" would be perceived as important.
Edit in: Drinkwitz has some time to develop his team. A 5-7 season would be a poor start IMO but 6-6 would get a pass. So unless he has the 2nd coming at QB, he's going to play the guy who is going to win the position, week in, week out. And when he identifies him, he'll start.
