Heaps

Try again. That was his third season. His second was the worst of his career.

Sorry, the brutality is

So his worst year, which followed up an amazing frosh year is what we should be comparing Heaps to now? Someone accused MG of being a super Heaps defender, I think we found the guy.

that's brutal?

we need more brutality from Jake Heaps.

[HuskyFreeNorthwest]

How many games did McCoy start in his first year, and did Texas install a new OC between those years?

Keep in mind that Heaps essentially cut his teeth on a milquetoast of a remaining schedule last year, and didn't have the kind of talent around him that McCoy did.

Give the kid and Doman some time to gel.

I didn't throw out the ridiculous Colt McCoy comparison. SMR said Colt sucked his second year, I clicked the wrong year and used his 3rd year numbers. Colt's "brutal" year is miles ahead of Heaps best or worst year. I'm not sure which one is which.

The point is, guys don't always break out in their second season. When have I defended Heaps? I know the kid personally, yet have never been shy in my criticism of him.

[smokymountainrain]

we need more brutality from Jake Heaps.

In comparison with what he was capable of? With what he did his third season? Yes.

My apologies then. When people start comparing him to great college QB's as examples to dampen expectations I took it as a defense.

I don't know him personally, I haven't really had any criticisms of him.

You realize his second season is only three games old, right?

[TripletDaddy]

In comparison with what he was capable of? With what he did his third season? Yes.

He was capable of his junior and senior year performance during his sophomore year but simply underachieved? Interesting. No growth curve for Colt.

Yes. That is exactly what I'm saying.

lol yeah I would take McCoy's Redshirt freshman season or his redshirt soph season.

As a redshirt freshman
217-318 for 2570 yards
68% completions
8.1 yards per attempt
29 TD
7 INT
161.8 rating
10-3 record

As a redshirt sophmore
276-424 for 3303 yards
65% completion
7.8 yards per attempt
22 TD
18 INT
139.2 rating
10-3 record

yeah not the best comparison

[Flystripper]

Oh his season will look good after he plays the back half I have no doubt.

It wasn't a comparison. I was just pointing out that in Mccoy's soph season he was not good. 7.8 ypa, 22 TDs/18 ints and a 139 qb rating is not good.

Perhaps we give him til at least the TCU game.

I would not say that 139.2 sucks. Would I like it north of 150? Yeah, but 139.2 from Heaps right now probaly has us at 2-1 with a head scratcher at Utah. All that said, his relatively shitty perfomance thus far is a combination of several things only one of which is his poor execution.
