He's the Joe Espada of Aggie Football. Have a vacant position, look around the room, hey, how about that guy?

A QB coach will not make Reed accurate all of a sudden.

Better playcalling that play to his strengths will.

Our QB coach made Reed much worse somehow.

Looks like Klein got the most out of Reed, while Wiggins can't get anything out of him. Amazing that Klein was able to do what he did while trying to turn Reed into a pocket passer.

Not a fan of hiring an inexperienced OC, but the OC doesn't cause low throws, throws in the dirt, throws behind the receiver, overthrows, and throws into coverage. Reed's biggest problem is Reed.

Reed has regressed, you'd hope that coaches could get more out of him. Certainly the plan was to coach Reed up, but we have achieved the opposite.

This entire thing was done for Marcel and it blew up in their face.
We failed to get another QB we did not have competition we treated Marcel Reed as if he were Tom Brady.

Elko is a defensive version of Jimbo, Trev Alberts is responsible,

Looking at Joey Lynch's record, he is the most baffling hire IMHO. Why did we not get an exceptional QB Coach from P4 ready to step into OC role or OC / QB coach from G6 as a backup. It feels like Elko thought new OC / DC were in place to move up but he didn't restock next men up (or QB for that matter).
