Unknown at this level.


He definitely wasn't a choker at MU, but I never felt like he laid the smack down against a good team in an evenly-matched game. He played well against Kansas, but OU was able to frustrate our offense in all the games he played. He had otherworldly talent. Maclin, Rucker, Coffman, Danario, and Will Franklin were all NFL players.


He had a bad reputation around Columbia as a bit of a drunk and a douchebag. Almost like a homeless man's Roethlisberger.

He has the right combination of intangibles and underrated, but passable physical skills to give him a chance to be a very good backup QB.

Thank you for the insight!



Do you believe that there's any way that he's improved his mechanics enough under Lombardi and Payton to where it's possible that he improved his arm strength, or were his mechanics never in question?
