Remember that Spano was a recruit from another school that decommitted and basically fell into the lap of the NU coaches --- of course, it was not that NU was not recruiting him, they were --- but, I'd guess that they recruited him based upon overall talent. That in High School he never took direct snaps is no big deal. It is easy to learn and he has plenty of time to learn it. They likely took him because he has a great arm, reportedly has fine accuracy and is athletic. With all that, teaching him direct snaps is easy.

How about the "victory "formation? Hard to believe up by 8 or less with just a couple of take-a-knee plays to win the game they would risk a shotgun snap.I don't think its that weird. They don't watch every single game the kid has ever played in. They probably figured that at some point during his high school career he took some snaps under center, like in a goal line set or something of the such. Most systems have at least a few instances where you take a snap under center, even if they are shotgun/spread based.
Spano could easily push the other 2...should be interesting.....i don't see Lee or Witt getting much game-time this year...
Hunter --- mI too fear that neither Witt nor Lee will see much time this year --- and if so, next year will likely be a step back for the team rather than a step forward.
i agree rob. the qb spot will have precious little experience next year, but so will a lot of spots on the team.
we are honestly 2 years away from having any continuity at the skill positions and the O and D lines will continue to be a work in progress as well.......we lack depth all around and game experience...not likely to change anytime soon.....we obviously need to keep recruiting hard.....
