Quarterback competition

One of our members (Pudd) posted about the Elite Eleven qb competition http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmwYT0P5cys yesterday. I got interested and watch all of it ( 3 parts). I learned that not only Riley Ferguson was there but so Josh Dobbs, except he was still committed to Arizona State at the time. The SEAL training segment was intense and the whole bunch had a tremendous interpersonal bonding experience under incredible stress. There is no doubt that Josh knew that Riley was committed to UT and I am sure that they had very good conversations before Josh formally flipped to UT. These two guys are comfortable with each other already and also are aware that a strong friendly competition will make them both better quarterbacks. We have a wonderful opportunity to watch a very talented pair of outstanding young men vie for the starting spot very soon.

I know that CBJ, while at Cincinnati, recruited Woulard. But maybe W/R/K can answer the question as to why we didn't recruit him to UT. I mean, I am happy with the QB's we got, just curious as to why we didn't go after him here, or did they deem Dobbs a better "fit"?
