Diego Pavia News, Rumors, Updates - Vanderbilt Commodores

Still battling for QB1 role Pavia is still locked in a quarterback competition with Nate Johnson, per Aria Gerson of The Tennessean.

Impact Pavia transferred in from New Mexico State on the heels of an excellent season. He tossed for 2,973 yards, 26 touchdowns and nine interceptions while completing 60.4 percent of his passes. He also added 925 rushing yards and seven scores on the ground. Still, the gunslinger remains locked into a razor-thin competition with Nate Johnson, the extremely athletically-gifted Utah transfer. This is a battle that should come down to the last days of fall camp.

Impact Pavia is not exactly running the Air Raid, but even for him a mere 95 yards passing is not ideal. However, he's run for five touchdowns over his last four games, he's turned the ball over once in his last six games, and the Aggies are bowl eligible already. That'll work.
