Also, keep in mind that Max Browne is probably the starting QB in Southern Cal for the foreseeable future. If not this year, then for the 4 after.

Has the kid we faced last year been sucking? He looked like he could compete. I claim ignorance on USCs QB situation.

Wittek was TERRIBLE in the Sun Bowl. He went like 16-37 with three picks.

He looked ok in our game but like Riddickulous said he was absolutely terrible against a poor GT defense. I think Wittek starts out the year at QB but won't finish it. When the team starts to lose Kiffin will change QB's and try the keep the faith pitch as Max Browne is the second coming of Matt Barkley.

So was clausen his freshman year and he turned out to be the purest passer I've ever seen at ND. My money is on wittek to win the job.

How quickly one forgets when they work full time and take 15 hours of night classes. That's right. He did suck in the bowl game. If I remember the whole team, including Kiffen looked like they wanted to be anywhere but playing GT that day.

cody kessler seems to be 1a
his spring, however, he made a serious case for a much larger role. Showing poise in the pocket and a strong command of the offense, he was easily the most efficient signal caller over the course of the fifteen workouts. Referred to as a “gamer” on more than one occasion by Kiffin, Kessler was particularly impressive in the team’s scrimmages, especially in the spring game finale when he completed 15 of 22 passes for 242 yards and three touchdowns. Just as significantly, he emerged as a leader whom the team seemed to rally around. Can Kessler keep his stellar play going through the summer and on into fall camp? If he can, it might be hard to keep him off the field.

But after going down in the team’s third workout this past March, Wittek’s development certainly was stunted. Stepping back into action after a week away, however, the former Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei star did eventually return to form, looking particularly sharp down the stretch. Still, while he did shine at times, he also had his struggles. In the spring game, for example, there were moments when he looked like a seasoned vet as he completed 12 of 17 passes for 145 yards and two touchdowns, but then again, he also threw two interceptions.

arriving at USC in time to take part in spring drills, Browne certainly didn’t look like your average freshman. A tremendous competitor with 6-5 height, a strong football IQ and arguably the best deep ball of the bunch, he made steady progress throughout the workouts, and there’s certainly reason for optimism when it comes to his future. But with his older counterparts performing at such a high level, the general thought among most onlookers this spring was that he’s just a tad behind them at this point.

That's a great offer for him. Good football fit close to home.

USC did not want to be at the Sun Bowl.

I think ultimately it's going to be the "other Max" that leads the Trojans but Witek should start the season. My guess is that he'll implode a couple of times and get the hook. His decision-making skills, intellectual horse power, and consistency are all suspect the way I see it.

Agreed, an offense he could excel in much like Matt Scott. Relative went to UA too, fun campus.

was not supposed to commit til the weekend but it got leaked, disappointing for him I guess. Will be a good fit at Arizona but will have a lot of competition to see the field. They took Anu Soloman out of Bishop Gorman in '13

Are u going by Loy's tweet (my guess)? I didn't get leaked, he was supposed to visit and commit while there but couldn't visit anymore so just called the coaches and committed last night. Loy looks dumb because A) A 247 reporter broke the news B) He talked to Biggins and told him he committed and gave a full interview

I was at the ASU vs U of A game today and Dawkins played a most of the game for UofA. He looked pretty good though he struggled some with progressions and noticing the blitz pre-snap (though to be fair his o-line sucked at picking up the blitz).
