December 26, 200619 yr And if it is the offensive system he's in, what is it that makes the system successful? Perfect weather obviously helps, the RNS only worked in the NFL for teams with a home dome, but those teams never seemed to play well on the road in January.
December 26, 200619 yr 58 Colt Brennan, Hawaii 2006 54 David Klingler, Houston 1990 52 B.J. Symons, Texas Tech 2003 47 Jim McMahon, BYU 1980 46 Andre Ware, Houston 1989 46 Tim Rattay, La. Tech 1998 45 Kliff Kingsbury, Texas Tech 2002 Hmm? Minus Jimmy Mack, not a decent NFL QB in the bunch. I'll hold off anointing Colt Brennan a can't-miss NFL prospect for now.
December 26, 200619 yr Hmm? Minus Jimmy Mack, not a decent NFL QB in the bunch. I'll hold off anointing Colt Brennan a can't-miss NFL prospect for now. I'd hold off anointing anyone can't miss, but he will probably work his way into the 1st round after next year. What he does after that is anyone's guess.
December 27, 200619 yr Hmm? Minus Jimmy Mack, not a decent NFL QB in the bunch. I'll hold off anointing Colt Brennan a can't-miss NFL prospect for now. Couldn't agree more, two Jack Pardee players, two from Leach, one from Lavelle Edwards, those are all products of high octane passing attacks.
December 27, 200619 yr but he will probably work his way into the 1st round after next year. Maybe. And maybe the War Room conversations comparing him to Kingsbury, Chang, Symons, etc. will cause him to drop. I would bet a plugged nickle that how he performs next year in the Senior Bowl and / or Hula Bowl (and subsequent combine) will do more for his stock than another 50 TD performance.
December 27, 200619 yr I'd hold off anointing anyone can't miss, but he will probably work his way into the 1st round after next year. What he does after that is anyone's guess. I agree. That can be said for just about all NFL prospects. Their play during their college career gets them noticed and invited to All-Star games and combines. What they do in the combine plays a major role on their draft status. Some players have their stock go up some have it drop. The only guarantee is that there is no guarantee. It is however, a great situation for one to be in.
December 27, 200619 yr Even harder to believe he was a walkon last season. He won't even sniff the Heisman since he's 5 time zones away but the numbers are impressive, their WR, Bess (sp?) is a player, he has a rap sheet but he's quicker than a cat. I've always enjoyed watching Hawaii when they are on the air, the RNS is almost distinct but that type of weather will keep it around. He was in the Top 10 this year. I'm not sure exactly where he was at, but he was in the Top 10. He won't win the Heisman, especially with McFadden back among others, but his name will be mentioned.
December 27, 200619 yr If Brian comes back next season I look for the pre-season candidates to be: Colt Brennan Brian Brohm Chad Henne Mike Hart Jon David Booty Darren McFadden

I believe that Brennan finished 6th in the Heisman this year and will definately be on the list next season if he stays on the Island.

December 27, 200619 yr Will the injury to Bush keep him off the preseason Heisman watch? I kept him off, because we have no clue what he is doing, and unless he states he's coming back...he's done....I think he will not have the luster that he had preseason this season, next....but a couple of monster games early, and he will be right back in the thick of things.

I agree. He will have to prove himself once again.
December 27, 200619 yr Hard to back that statement up... set the single season record for TD's this year and I didn't hear his name mentioned by anyone. Ya me either. It doesnt matter if you run a special scheme it is a great accomplishment to throw for the record.
