I guess that’s why I’m not a college HC or OC - did you see the Jayhawks 1st drive ? 
Bean was 53% in 9 games last year - seems Aune was roughy the same ? 
Beans wheels are tons better and arm is similar it seems ?

Now bean is 4/5 right now. Significantly progress since he was here. Crazy what having a real qb coach will do

Aune would probably play better under Leipold too.

Bean is a hell of an athlete than can run like a deer but could also miss a wide open receiver by a mile. Aune can be inaccurate at times as well but is an overall better pocket passer.

I see Bean being a raw talent that G Harrell could have molded into something special - but w/o Graham I guess it’s a moot point.  No hate here for Aune just getting some debates going that are representative of our present state of affairs and decisions made that have us where we are.

The numbers are the same.  And Bean as a take it to house threat everytime he keeps it on an option play makes the run game even better throwing below 70% from the pocket with adequate protection.  And in Aune’s case I am not talking 70% completions, I am just wanting 70% on target on time throws.  The receivers route running factors into that also but that is just another indication the passing game coaching is substandard here.   
 

I also think that if Kansas had Bean and Aune available to them with a same amount of time in their system, Bean would still be on the depth chart ahead of Aune.  So in my mind that makes Bean better.

I made a Jason Bean "watch" thread because I was thinking the same and I will say as of right now, they look about the same as passers but Bean has better wheels. Doesn't help that OU is dominating the line of scrimmage, has almost completely taken out the option game, and put up nearly 500 yards of offense and 35 points the first half.

Two subpar passers and people trying to argue the dude putting up slightly better numbers and is an elite running threat playing against P5 defenses isn’t better?  I hate the board sometimes.

Yes. Aune is better than Bean.  Bean can run, but that is all.  He cant hit a bull in the butt throwing.

I would take Aune over Bean every time.

 

Bean made some great throws in tight coverage today against OU. Unfortunately some were dropped and then with OU completely dominating the LOS and running all over Kansas while limiting Kansas run plays, Kansas kind of abandoned the option game. He's a much better passer this year than you seem to think.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
