Oklahoma and Auburn are both dealing with questions at the quarterback spot. The Sooners benched Jackson Arnold last week in the loss to Tennessee while the Tigers will again turn to Payton Thorne after taking a look at Hank Brown against Arkansas a week ago.

The pressure appears to be rising around both programs, and the quarterback movement adds fuel to the fire. But it’s also leading to a conversation about how much patience coaches should have before making a chance.

“The lack of patience at the quarterback position, some of it justified,” ESPN’s Rece Davis said on “The Paul Finebaum Show” Tuesday. “That is something I’ve noticed about quarterback changes and coaches being candid about reasoning, which I’m not against at all — I think with the professionalization of college football particularly, you get to a point where if a guy is maybe not performing to the best of his capabilities or he’s not performing quite at the level you had hoped, you’re going to say so.

“We’ve seen that Oklahoma, we’ve seen it at Auburn. And I think in the past maybe guys were a little more reluctant to do so. But that’s been something I’ve noticed from a grand scheme in terms of how coaches are dealing with the success or failure or frustrations of their teams.”
