Schneider takes over at QB

Two weeks into the season, and the Austin Wranglers already have their first major position change, albeit one that was forced upon them.

Starting quarterback Jeff Terrell has left the team, citing an opportunity to try out with the Dallas Cowboys.

That means fellow rookie Matt Schneider will get tonight's start against the Lubbock Renegades.

"Just when you think you've seen everything this game gets even more bizarre," said Wranglers coach Ben Bennett. "I don't ever remember the starting quarterback of a professional team just leaving."

Terrell won the job in the preseason camp, but was mostly ineffective in his debut last week against Corpus Christi, completing 17 of his 34 passes for 213 yards.

Schneider threw for 3,534 yards and 31 touchdowns for NAIA MidAmerica Nazarene last season.

On Friday, the Wranglers signed veteran Michael Wall, who is playing in his fourth indoor football season.

Ha, and have his dreams shattered. This is an AF2 quarterback.

I don't know who our backup QB should be, but I can tell you who it's not going to be.

He does understand that he's trying out to be the next Rowdy, doesn't he?

The pay is probably better than being an AF2 quarterback, ha.

Interesting. Sounds like a guy we might bring in to throw during practice and such so Tony and Brad's arms don't fall off.

I guess it couldn't hurt anythings to bring him to camp to have an extra arm around..... but I don't see him doing much more than that. I wish him the best of luck though.
