Make some "critical decisions" that appear as an attempt to jumpstart the team but in reality it really just prevents the team from winning very many games, which in turn enables them to draft the franchise QB that helped the head coach land his NFL gig in the first place.

I wonder if Brohm is going to get the Brady Quinn treatment. Ya know, the old "his defense was bad and cost him games, so he's not first pick material."
Probably not since he didn't go to Notre Dame, but you never know.
It could really shake up the draft order if say Andre Woodson goes first overall because he wins a bowl game over like USF or someone. Of course this isn't a great comparison because Woodson is way more deserving of the first selection than Russell was a year ago, but that was the first situation that came to mind.
Brohm has been money for three years now, and has earned the right to be the first QB off the board. Once the media machine gets going, I just worry that this kid is gonna get chewed up and spit out.
