Isn’t RG3 related to Hooker? I know he has some current connection to a player. edit nevermind - I think he is related to a baseball player. Trey Lipscomb I believe.
I coined him diet Dobbs when he committed to us, but now I think we're going to see what Dobbs would have looked like with competent coaching.
He’s also more accurate than Dobbs ever was (that ugly 3rd down right after he hurt his shoulder notwithstanding). Maybe part of that is the competent coaching bit, but he doesn’t really have a weak point in his game.
He’s a different kind of runner than Dobbs was but he’s a better passer. Dobbs is probably super jealous that he had to play in The Infallible System
My favorite run was the long one in the third when he ran behind Fant for about 10 yards then straight up threw him into the guy to block him.
Hard to pick that one over the 44-yarder after the near sack, but…well, there were a lot of fine choices.
The only QB performance I can compare would be Andy Kelly in 91 versus Notre Dame. And Hookers was still better.
Dobbs kept Butch employed, he did it in spite of coaching, I'll always wonder what he could have been with competent coaching. Hooker and Heupel are a perfect fit. It's nice to feel like great players are receiving great coaching on the offensive side again
