Question: When you determine that Andrew Quarless can return, do you anticipate there to be competition for playing time at tight end?

Paterno’s Answer: Well, whenever we decide that Quarless oughtta be in the competition, he’ll have to beat out Shuler. He’ll have to beat out Lyons, too. He’s not going to get the job. He obviously last year was a starter but I’m not going to say, ‘OK, give me a hug, alright, you’re our starter.’ He’s going to have to work his way in there.
