There’s a lot of people on here ready to dump Brin who thought he was gonna win us 10 games this year. The same people who wanted to bench a five year senior with legit NFL aspirations, something that is solid gold to college coaches. Because Brin hit a hole in one with his eyes closed when there was nobody left to turn to. The same people who said Dane had arm strength but no talent when he was a freshman and a sophomore. These are symptoms not the disease. He’s recruited poorly and failed to develop (Boomer, Skipper, President, Brin if you really want to throw him in there and I don’t). There’s nothing to suggest that Braxton will be any better, seeing how he was offered by 14 lesser programs, plus Memphis and ASU in way down recruiting years.
And that’s because it’s the offense and the people recruiting into it. The only legit QB this offense has ever recruited into it is Case Keenum, maybe Bryce Petty if you really want to count him. Kolb signed with Houston their first year after Tech said he wouldn’t ever be the starter snd his Dad knew Briles. RGIII was already on the roster at Baylor when Briles got there same with Dane.
Now those guys running the offense made it work. But it has been terrible at every other school when someone other than a future professional QB is running it.
It’s not the driver. It’s the car and the mechanic.
