I also wonder if Weis would have been able to get Thigpen to improve...I dont think thats too far fetched given how Cassel has.
Oh well...whats done is done.
We will never know.

I think Colt McCoy is making a lot of coaches re-evaluate whether it's really as impossible as people believe to teach a spread monkey QB a pro style offense.
I agree--I've always wanted to see what Thigpen could do behind a good QB coach and an offense that can run the ball as well as we can. But the caveat is that we couldn't run a shotgun offense without limiting our running game. I think Thigpen was capable of playing under center, but he'd have to prove it.
