Attended a football alumni function Saturday night at the IPF. Got to sit and eat w Brady and I am so happy to have him back. He literally landed Saturday morning coming back from his honeymoon and volunteered to be there Saturday night. One of the most impressive guys on and off the field I have ever met. We are fortunate to have him on staff.

I agree with all of that. He should be a big for the whole offense and especially the QB's. Hopefully he will have some good chemistry with the new OC.

Brady White is one of the smartest QBs ever, he is a great guy an has his masters degree. I have no doubt that he will end up being a very good coach someday. Right now he is a GA , he is not a QB coach , he has a few years before he is the one responsible for the outcome of a game

We're still reaping the benefits of hiring Mike Norvell.

FYI: Not a dig at CRS

Brady is the GOAT imo. How many other QBs won 12 games at Memphis ?

In the same year?

Yes and I already know the answer. It’s sad that he got booed at halftime once

Future OC & a HC within the next 5-10 years.

I was being facetious. During a stretch in the 70s-early 80s, quarterbacks would have been lucky to win 12 in their career.

In 10 years, BW will be 35. He’s a quick study…
He’ll be a HC by then.

He had a really bad ankle injury that was kept somewhat under wraps during that initial period. He didn't fully recover until after the season.

Career wise you can make that claim (for now). On a per game status I would still take Ferguson.

Isn't it weird that someone who only played because he was the coach's babysitter, holds so many school records.

It wasn't kept under wraps. It was well known.

It's possible. Not sure why we can't get carried away on a message board.
But where are the folks who remind us that great players usually don't make great coaches? You aren't one of them (when it comes to Penny), are you?

yeah, folks kept talking about his mobility.
He was never fleet of foot...but he showed some wheels in the Cotton Bowl season, and his last year here when he needed to.
