Doesn't Hawaii pretty much run a passing run-and-shoot offense?

Although this year Hawaii's offense is much more balanced, our RB is averaging 8 ypc and has gone over 100 yards rushing in a game twice.

10-15-2006, 07:19 PM

Yes, the numbers Brennan are putting up are incredible (the completion % is especially impressive)--but after Andre Ware, I don't think the Heisman voters are likely to vote for another Run and Shoot quarterback (especially from a mid-major school).

Not being a hater here, I am a June Jones fan and read the Scout and the Sports Hawaii boards regularly...

Galaxy

10-15-2006, 07:19 PM

Hawaii has a legit chance to win out , finish 11-2 and in the top 25. He deserves to be considered in the heisman race. Especially since bowl game stats count, so he really could have over 5000 yards passing and 50+ TD's

The bowl games don't count for the Heisman, since it's awarded before bowl season. Problem with Hawaii is they aren't playing great competition.

Who's Hawaii's top receiver? I remember seeing that he is an amazing player for a sophmoore.

None is needed. It's common sense that he will win it, barring some bad performances down the road.

Will Smith be a high pick? He's on the short side.

I don't think he will be top 10, but I still think he will win the Heisman. I think if he continues to have a great season, he will go somewhere in the middle of the 1st round. As you mentioned, his height isn't ideal and he isn't as fast as some of the recent scrambling QB's to go highly.

sooner333

10-16-2006, 09:23 PM

Ware never won a SWC championship for Houston, White played for two national championships. White went 27-4 as a starter and that doesn't include the '01 game where he came in and led OU on the only offensive TD drive of the game. White won a Heisman and came in third the following season.

True, White didn't ever make the NFL...but I don't think that this argument has anything to do with who is going to be a better QB in the pros as Colt Brennan hasn't made it there yet.

Wow. That's one heck of a run 'n shoot, if the RB is getting less than 13 carries a game.

Wow Hawaii is really running the ball a lot today, interesting.

anyway, our new favorite Heisman Candidate is having oh you know just a normal day, hes only 16/21 (2 have been dropped) 235+ yards 3 TDs and no picks at the half.

I doubt he will get it. He's seen as too much of a product of the system (Timmy Chang put up big numbers not too many years ago) and also the fact that Hawaii isn't playing many high quality opponents.

k0ruptr

10-21-2006, 11:23 PM

yea, he probably won't get it. but I'm definetly willing to bet the house that his numbers at the end of this season will surpass changs best season by so much that it won't even be funny. Chang's best season was his senior year, but I will wait till the end of the season to make a comparison. It won't be close.

Eaglesfan27

10-22-2006, 12:25 AM

Sorry, but I had to do it. I just looked at Chang's stats from his senior year. Eaglesfan27 you should really look at his stats from any year, and even compare Brennan last year (as a sophmore). It's not even really close. chang had more TD's but his rating is soooo much lower. heh

Chang was a system QB, I admit it. But Brennan is not.

Ok, his stats are better than Chang's. However, he still has the issue that the Run and Shoot is considered to seriously inflate stats. Also, he is playing inferior competition. I think he has to have all huge games the rest of the way and get a few guys to stumble to even get an invite. He also can't lose any more games. Three loss teams don't usually get their guys invited to the Heisman presentation.

Guys that will almost certainly get invites:

1. Troy Smith - Clearly the favorite to win it and he is putting up huge numbers against superior competition. Top 5 in efficiency. 17 passing TD's. His team is #1 and undefeated.

2. Ray Rice - After tonight's performance he is going to be in the top #3 in the nation in rushing and will probably finish in the top 3 especially since Adrian is out injured. Also among the top 5 in TD's and his team is undefeated.

From here, I think it becomes less certain but all of these guys are more likely than Brennan to get an invite:

3. Erik Ainge - QB of a 1 loss top 10 team. 7th in the nation in efficiency. 11th in passing yardage. Playing much more talented teams.

4. Michael Hart - Top 10 in the nation in rushing on a top 3 team that is undefeated.

5. Steve Slaton - Top 5 in the nation in rushing on a top 5 team.

Others that merit consideration before Brennan off the top of my head:

Colt McCoy (being a Freshman will probably penalize him some), P.J. Hill, Chris Leak (if Florida doesn't lose any more games and Leak continues to throw a few TD's per game.)

I'm not saying Brennan's season isn't statistically spectacular, it is just too bad we aren't seeing if he can do this against some tougher competition, and I think Heisman voters will penalize him for it and he won't get an invite.

Eaglesfan27

10-22-2006, 11:57 AM

Agree with your list outside of a couple guys at the end Eagles. Colt won't get a Heisman invite. Not only is he a frosh, but Texas lost the biggest game of their year and he only threw for 108 yards in the OU game. His numbers are impressive, but he lacks the hype or the signiture game to make it happen. The Auburn game will come back to kill Chris Leak. I'm not sure Florida winning out would even get him the invite.

You also left out one name that will almost certainly get an invite, even with how horrible he's looked at times this year. Brady Quinn will end up with 4000+ yards passing and 40 TD's at Notre Dame. I just don't see a way he doesn't get an invite. Not sure he deserves it, but it's Notre Dame, right?

I agree that Colt McCoy is unlikely to get it. Leak, I think might get it if others stumble just because there aren't that many impressive guys ahead of him. Then again, you are probably right and Brady Quinn will get an invite just because of the ND name, the national exposure, etc. I just don't think his statistics have been that impressive in their big games.

k0ruptr

10-22-2006, 06:25 PM

oh and 1 more thing... Hawaii WILL be in the top 20 when this season is over. they are getting votes in the 3 polls now and they are 5-2, the offense is unstoppable and I don't think they play a good Defense the rest of the way (which will hurt brennan, causing him to not get an invite im sure) but when they destroy Oregon St. and Purdue hopefully people give him, and Hawaii a little bit more respect. And maybe even a better bowl game then the gay ass Hawaii bowl.

From my perspective, it is both the level of competition and the system he plays in. Look at the Texas Tech quarterbacks over the past couple of seasons. They have amazing stats and were never considered as serious Heisman candidates because of the system they played in. I think Colt playing better opponents would help get him into the top 5, but he would still have problems getting enough people to vote for him to win it all.

Brennan threw for 413 yards 6 touchdowns, but he threw 1 pick :( , thats alright cause all those stats came in only 3 quarters! COLT FOR HEISMAN!

he honestly didn't have the greatest game today, and thats scary. Only completed 18/29 which is only 62% his worst game of the year, but probably the best as far as YPA.

Colt has also sat on the bench for OVER 5 quarters this year in blow out victories. thats about another 5 TDs and 350 yards ... lol

It put a stigma, rightly or wrongly, on QBs that are considered the product of a 'system'. It made it seem that the schemes put up the numbers, not the QBs.

I don't remember people using the term "product of the system" prior to Ware and Detmer.

Don't get me wrong, from my handle, you can probably tell that I am sympathetic to the run & shoot. But, with that being said, I think that voters have been influenced by Ware and Klingler's NFL performances. For better or worse, I think that a few voters are suspicious of run and shoot QBs because of this. Remember also that Houston was on probation during Ware's Heisman season, so voters could not see him and most voted on him almost purely on the basis of stats. I don't think voters are willing to do that these days.

I think Brennan breaks out of this "product of the system" mold though. I say this because the all time leading passer in NCAA history is none other than a Hawaii quarterback who truly was a product of their run-n-shoot system - Timmy Chang.

Chang put up a lot of yards and some big numbers but he was never nearly as accurate or dominant as Brennan is. In addition, Chang never even broke 40 TD's passing in a season. Brennan is on pace to shatter all of Chang's records and he is doing it while playing or a very good Hawaii team and, like mention earlier, sitting out the end of many of their routs.

I really think Brennan should be invited to New York for the Heisman ceremony. In fact, I don't think there is another quarterback in America who should win the award ahead of him.

I agree completely, and guess what? It looks like a lot of the voters are coming around, they were talking about Brennan ALL over espnnews, espn2 and espn today. At least 5 analysts said they are moving him up their Heisman list, and are definetly voting for him.

OH HELL YES -
hxxp://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2006/Nov/05/br/br1093254678.html

Hawai'i junior quarterback Colt Brennan has been named the National Offensive Player of the Week by the Walter Camp Football Foundation following his performance against Utah State on Saturday in Logan, Utah.

Brennan completed 18-of-29 passes for 413 yards and six touchdowns as Hawai'i defeated Utah State, 63-10.

Brennan threw scoring tosses of 29, 13, 60, 35, 12 and 18 yards increasing his season total to 39, a school record. Brennan has thrown for five or more touchdowns in six games this season. It was the sixth consecutive victory for the Warriors, now 7-2 overall, 5-1 in the WAC.

UH, which accepted an invitation to play in the Dec. 24 Sheraton Hawaii Bowl, plays host to Louisiana Tech Saturday at Aloha Stadium.

I was pissed that they accepted that shitty bowl bid again, especially since the Hawaii bowl matchup will most likely be a top 25 Hawaii team vs a 6-6 Pac ten team :(

but the main reason is, basicall Hawaii never has a shot at a mainland bowl unless its BCS. because they are like the worst traveling fan base in the country, and we all know that Bowl games are all about money, instead of quality teams.

One question, do you guys really think he doesn't deserve the Heisman if he finishes with 56 touchdowns (a record, and which he is on pace for) 4800+ yards passing, 300 + yards rushing with 3 or 4 more tds on the ground. Also the record for passing effiency, and completion %.
And also finishing the season with wins over Purdue and Oregon St.
damn I really wish he hadn't sat out 5+ quarters already this season.

Davey O'Brien yes, Heisman no.

The main reason are the relatively weak defenses he has faced. The highest ranked passing defense he has faced is Alabama, which is ranked #46, and Hawaii lost that game. Three of the pass defenses he has faced are ranked higher than #100.

For the Heisman, it takes more than gaudy numbers. People want to see how the candidates handle and overcome adversity. The numbers should win him the O'Brien award for best QB though.

Anyway, I'm a little surprised that Hawaii already accepted their bowl bid. I think I read somewhere that they are obligated to go play the Hawaii Bowl if they're bowl eligible, but Hawaii still has an outside chance of winning the WAC. What happens then?

What k0 said about fans traveling. Hawaii has a tough enough time getting fans to home games.

With conference affiliations, the only bowls that Hawaii could go to would be the MPC (Boise), New Mexico (Albuquerque) and Hawaii (Honolulu). With those choices I think it'll be obvious to take the Hawaii bowl and play at home.

Ahh, I see now what the issue is--since the WAC doesn't have a true conference champion tie-in bowl, it doesn't matter if Boise State chokes because it appears that the three WAC affiliated bowls will pick among the same top teams no matter what (with Hawaii obviously preferring Hawaii).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colt_Brennan

On January 28 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_28), 2004 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004), Brennan was arrested by campus police for entering a co-ed's room uninvited and refusing to leave. Brennan was intoxicated at the time of the incident and eventually pleaded guilty to charges of burglary and tresspassing, but a guilty verdict for unlawful sexual contact was vacated by the court because of shaky evidence. After the incident, which was caught up in the middle of the time when CU was flooded with other accusations of sex crimes and revelations of wild recruiting parties involving Colorado football players, Brennan was almost immediately kicked off the team.

What he said. He still hasn't faced more than one good defense and when he has faced somewhat decent defenses, he hasn't elevated his team to wins. I don't think he should even be invited to the Heisman ceremony unless he continues to put up stellar numbers EVERY single game. A big game against Purdue won't impress me considering they are 98th in the NCAA in passing defense and are giving up over 230 yards per game. Oregon State's pass defense is rated 70th. If he was playing Oregon and put up a big game (6th rated pass defense), then I would be impressed. However, his lack of competition severely impairs his chance to win the Heisman and I think it should.

k0ruptr

11-06-2006, 04:53 PM

It's too bad Hawaii has to play in the wac. I think he could put up numbers against a lot of higher ranked teams.

Im assuming you mean Alabama as one of the decent Defenses. not sure there ranking tho, but I'm pretty sure Colt is the only QB to put up over 300 yards against them.. 350 I think it was.

ahh never mind Ainge did it a couple weeks ago.. 302. to go along with 3 ints, and a 60% completion compared to Colt's 68%

TazFTW

11-06-2006, 04:54 PM

Didn't like the name/color change when it happened but it does seem to reflect the attitude of June Jones/the team nicely. Truth be told the name change has helped with recruiting as there were recruits that did not want to be called a Rainbow anything.

Eaglesfan27

11-06-2006, 05:09 PM

Since I'm bored (lots of no-shows due to bad weather):

Colt's stats by teams: 30 of 44 for 350 yards 2 TD's and a game costing INT against Alabama which was one of the better defenses (rated 29th against the pass currently.)

Next is UNLV (currently 104th against the pass) in which he was 24 of 35 for 296 yards with 2 TD's 2 INT's.

Then his big game against Boise State: 25 of 36 for 388 yards with 5 TD's and 1 INT. Too bad they are 85th against the pass currently.

Then they drub Eastern Illinois(!?!) and Colt completes 30 of 41 for 409 yards with 5 TD's 1 INT. Of course, Eastern Illinois is not even ranked since they aren't a 1A team.

They have a close game with Nevada in which Colt passes for 419 yards on 36 of 47 passing with 4 TD's 0 INT's. Nevada is currently 53rd against the pass which seems like it is attributable in part to their competition, but still this is one of Colt's more impressive performances from a purely statistical standpoint.

He follows that up with a monster game against the 89th ranked Fresno State Pass Defense: 32 of 39 for 409 yards with 5 TD's 0 INT's.

Then a 22 of 31 for 330 yards with 5 TD's 0 INT's against New Mexico State. New Mexico's defense is currently 94th against the pass.

Then, a 31 of 38 for 333 yards with 5 TD's 0 INT performance against Idaho. Too bad Idaho is 109t against the pass (out of 119.)

Finally, the most recent game which was 18 of 29 for 413 yards with 6 TD's 1 INT against the might Utah State team. They rank an underwhelming 111th against the pass.

The remaining opponents:

Louisiana Tech is 84th against the pass.

San Jose State is a respectable 43rd.

Purdue as aforementioned is 98th and Oregon State is 70th.

Sorry, but strength of the defenses has to figure into the equation, and therefore I definitely think that Colt Brennan does not deserve the Heisman.

Nice work. I guess you should also mention that in more then half of those games he played only 3 quarters.

Actually, from the recap screens it looked like he was out that early only in a few of those games. But, does it matter? He is playing some of the worst pass defenses in the nation, it wouldn't change my mind as a voter if he threw another few hundred yards or even an extra thousand yards and a few TD's against those same pathetic defenses.

and possibly the fact that Hawaii is ranked 100/119 in time of possesion, while holding the ball less then 30 minutes a game at 28:23

A guess the next fun exercise would be to prorate out what the backup's stats would be if they played the full game and see how much different they would be that Brennan's. If similar, that would be another strike against Brennan, that the system and not the QB is responsible for the stats.

I'm pretty sold on him looking like a heisman candidate and even a possible 1st rounder in that video. With the improvement of Alex Smith, a quarterback considered a "system QB" can still be extremely highly regarded on draft day, and it looks like this guy is similar in his mobility, and has a live arm with excellent accuracy in the pocket or on the run. He also seems to make his progressions well, looking for and finding his receivers and getting the ball out quick. Good pocket awareness as well, and was that a faked shovel pass he used in the one highlight where the two guys were right on top of him almost as soon as the ball was snapped and he rolled out and scrambled for about 15yards? If my eyes didnt deceive me, that is just plain slick.

pretty good video. He throws side arm it looks like, so there is a good chance that the DL can deflect/block them in the NFL. Also the throwing lanes that his OL open for him to see the field, will not be happening in the NFL.

I do think he should be invited to NY for the heisman and he should get drafted, but there are things that are a concern, and considering how Alex Smith is playing in the NFL, I would not try to compare the two. :D

If I was the opposing coach and they kept running up the score in that situation, I'd have my D blitz on every play and hit him as hard as possible. I doubt I'm the only one who thinks that way so it's probably a good thing he was taken out.

well, the last 3 games the teams we have played HAVE blitzed every play, but they still can't hit Brennan :) watch some highlights, hes mobile, and we have an A+ Oline. also though, yes I'm glad hes been taken out, but thats 7 1/2 quarters he hasn't played, thats like 8 td's and 500 yards. I really want him to get a Heisman invite ya know.

I just got home from the game. I left when it was 54-10. You know, I'm all over the Colt for Heisman bandwagon but he didn't look that great tonight. I know, his numbers were sick good but when compared to what I've seen in previous games I think he had an off night. He missed a couple guys deep that would have scored for sure. I still think he'll break the season record for TD passe in a season though. I hope he gets the Heisman.

Looking at Hawaii's performance this year, I would have to say that Jerry Glanville is probably the real MVP of that program. It looks like he's finally turning the defense around. While Hawaii's defense isn't exactly shut-down elite level, it is still almost like night and day how improved it is compared too last year's version.

Sure, everyone knew the offense would be great. But the fact that the defense is no longer a sieve is at the heart of what Hawaii is accomplishing this year.

01-15-2007, 08:50 PM

He might actually sniff the 1st round because the QB class is very top heavy. With Brohm out of the mix, there isn't really a guy who could be the late-1st round QB besides Brennan. So if a team chooses to make that position their priority, he might get lucky.

I'm really having a hard time figuring out who exactly is going to be taking a QB in the later half of the first round....hell the first round period. I think at most 9 teams have any sort of day one QB need. I do think the top half of the second could see a few QB's like Brennan taken though, maybe someone like Cleveland will trade into the late first round trying to bypass the Lions and Raiders of the world.

As an aside, as someone partial to the R&S I'm not complaining, but has anybody noticed how much ESPN loves televising Hawaii home games in the past few years (even during the mediocre seasons)? The amount of coverage doesn't really seem proportional to national interest. Is it because of the need to fill the late timeslot? Something else?

The islands haircut looks like he met Sen. Craig in a public bathroom, and the cops used a black light on Colt's head to look for evidence.

lol, ok stop cuz we dont want this being brought up during Hawaii's greatest year.

anyway, CB is the greatest, and Hawaii has a slim chance to go to the BCS this year, how can you not root for em? well unless your a TCU fan.

Can you really go to the BCS and get the Heisman with two I-AA teams on your schedule on top of a lot of bad I-A teams?

lets hope you haven't jinxed him and he gets hurt after tossing 1 more.

Yes. That's the kind of off-the-wall remark that tends to come back and hurt you. :(

Will Smith be a high pick? He's on the short side.

Nah, but not because of that. What's really killing him are those Fresh Prince reruns.

yea, im gonna update this now .

oh and Groundhog you were almost right, I mean he got hurt Friday before the unlv game. still managed 298 yards and 5 combined tds on a sprained ankle.

OK, I'm going out on a limb here. Tulane will run the table from here, head out to Hawaii, and smack the Warriors in the Hawaii Bowl. It'll be great fun, just like it was when J.P. Losman led the Wave to the same result back in 2002.

The coach is going to ruin this kid's arm if he doesn't control him a little bit! Can you say Tommy John Surgery or they might actually rename it Colt Brennan Surgery.

I wonder if they have Brennan on a pitch count, if he had hit 80 attempts would they have had to go to the bullpen?

And this just in; June Jones is a complete ass. Is there another college coach whose accomplishments and sense of greatness are further apart? His quote after the game, “if the conditions had been better we would have scored at least 60.” Yep coach, and if you had been playing even a competent defense you would have been picked off six or seven times, twice in the end zone.

well June Jones shouldn't of said that, I agree those were tasteless comments. But hes a great coach, and he's been great for Hawaii. He is definitely not a complete ass.

Geez, no fair responding to my hyperbole with a reasoned and level headed comment. Since you’re going to be like that, I’ll say that Brennan’s 4 picks aren’t bad at all when you consider that he attempted 3 games worth of passes in one night

I wish Colt had that kind of talent surrounding him, but maybe it wouldnt make a difference, Harrell still was a 4 star QB out of highschool. Colt was only a walk on at Hawaii after getting kicked off a bad Colorado team.

Man hes greater then Colt for sure.

DOWN WITH COLT BRENNAN.

Colt Brennan was a 4 star JUCO recruit who had to walk onto Hawaii because he had personal problems. He's a great player with a good arm, but tries to do too much. But he's undefeated and props to him...I know it's always been tough for UH when they go to the mainland without staying there for a week and that's totally understandable.
