Most college spread/air raid guys are doing the 1 read and go or the coach read from the sideline thing. Mahomes and Texas Tech didnt do that, they ran a pro style pre-snap read and progression mixed with the effectiveness of the college football air raid play style.

And, my question wasn't asked just to be a prick... I haven't watched much of TTU in recent years, but I've heard similar things to what you typed.
I dont' think the 'air raid' concern is over-blown as someone else put it, there's a definite trend there as it props up what a player can do at the next level. Who knows how things would have gone had RGIII been able to sit a year or two, same for the others.
