Undersized A spread-offense product Struggled mightily with making the limited reads required for a college offense as a younger player UR R A HOMER He's a poverty version of RGIII, who did everything better than Boykin at the college level.

He sucked when we ran a more traditional offense. He only became a QB because Paschall ****ed up. He was a RB/WR prior to that (and by prior to that, I mean during the offseason that year). When we went to the spread offense, he flourished. He ran a similar offense in high school. He has increased the amount of reads that he makes from when we went to the spread offense. He's a better prospect than RG3 because he can actually take a hit. |

I was trying to say that he looks like a spread product. He struggled with reads and accuracy before TCU went to the spread. Even making "reads" in a spread offense is very different from making them in an NFL offense. Sorry, but dual-threat spread guys are just not reliable things to hitch NFL hopes to. He is not a better prospect than RGIII at this point. Griffin was bigger, has a stronger arm, and was more dynamic as a run threat at QB.

All this. But recall this next time you're eager to defend Aaron Crow or the litany of MU garbage that's played for the Chiefs lately, like when you wanted to start Daniel.

You don't watch the Royals games, yet still try to have an opinion on them. I wouldn't be surprised if you don't even watch Chiefs games. |

I don't want him long-term as the answer and have no delusions about him (he's not Drew Brees). Not have I ever said he is... just that he can provide 90 percent of what Alex Smith does, bar minimum, at a much lower price. I didn't defend Aaron Crow because he went to Mizzou. I simply have pointed out that he is less of a bust at this point than many guys in his class, and I consider him less of a bust compared to Chris Colon.

You don't even know the name of your schools best player. Damn, you're stupid.

Not surprising that a ku fan cares more about spelling someone's name than what that player actually does. |

I do not ever want to see a highly touted college spread option QB on my pro team, ever. Boykin is great at TCU and will garner Heisman consideration, but he will fail in the NFL if he stays at QB just likely nearly every other spread option QB has (Mariota looks like he might have a future, as well as Tannehill, but that's it).
Give me a quarterback from a pro set offense. |
