Colt in The Washington Post

Eric Prisbell of the Washington Post writes a great article about Colt Brennan. Here are some excerpts:
One of the perceptions Brennan continues to fight is that he is a "system quarterback" who excels primarily because of the run-and-shoot offense of Jones, who has used the pass-happy attack throughout his career...
Brennan believes his completion rate of 72.6 percent, which was tops in the nation last season, runs counter to the belief that run-and-shoot quarterbacks often have low completion percentages. Jones characterized Brennan as "so unconsciously accurate," a quarterback who reminds him of former NFL quarterbacks Jeff George and Dan Marino.
And don't forget that Colt broke the season passing efficiency record with a 186.0 rating last year. To throw for 5500 yards and break the efficiency record is insane. The article ends with a great quote from Coach Jones.
"I have had a whole lot of guys in the Pro Bowl and two guys in the Hall of Fame," Jones said. "Colt is the best quarterback I have watched or coached in my 35 years."
Whoa! Anyway, there's a lot more to read, with quotes from Karl Benson and Boise State coach Chris Peterson. June also addresses the weak schedule situation. Overall, it's more great exposure for Colt and UH. And there's probably more to come!
