Strong inherited a program with zero QBs, It would have been nice if Swoops were a better prospect or Heard for that matter but both were guys that were extremely raw, good athletic ability but just not passing QBs.
The fact that SB can come in as a true freshmen and push a senior and cause a junior to change positions tells you more about the two upper-class QBs than the freshmen.
Now with that said, It is all on Strong that he decided to bring in Watson as his OC when he was a failure at both Colorado and Nebraska. No one was more pissed about this than I was. I was already concerned about Strong taking over a program like Texas as he might be a bit over his head, but Watson almost proved my point.
At this point, I still say the jury is still out on Strong, but we shall see. If he isn't the guy you can bet Herman is available as a replacement.
