I don't care what kingd of offense he played in, his credentials are impressive.

Dude he played in a douche conference. Who would you rather have as a starting QB, a guy who faced big time competition just about every week or some guy racking up stats against teams that are barely Div IA? How come he would have gone undrafted if we didn't pick him up? You know why? After all the hype about him and Hawaii going undefeated into the BCS Sugar Bowl, he got his ass kicked by Georgia. I give the guy props for his records, but his situation was like if the Gators played NAIA opponents all year

The game against Georgia prepared him for the shitty lines that we have had.

All we're talking about here is that he will be given the opportunity to compete with front line payers in the preseason to see if he can make a positive impression. Regardless of your impression of the guy, you haven't seen anymore of him than the rest of us, and what I've seen thus far is not enough to form an unbiased opinion as to what he's going to eventually be. I want to see more of Colt Brennan in a truly competitive environment with the opportunity to sink or swim.

If Brennan has the ability to be a productive quarterback, I feel much more confident with Shanahan doing the evaluation instead of Captain Slip and Slide.

I definitely agree with that. I'll trust whatever opinion Shanahan has of him. If after given ample opportunity and he concludes he's not worthy then I'll gladly accept that.

Yeah UH played teams with weak defenses unless you count the game where they blasted Boise. But which team in the Big 12 fielded a defense the yr bradford put up monster numbers? They were avg 40 or so a game until they ran into a REAL D IN FLORIDA. I remember him throwing crucial a pick in the RZ and at the end of the BCS. So imo both played in high powered offenses in college vs teams with sub par defenses. And yes UGA thumped UH mainly because they rushed 3 and STILL sacked that kid Colt all day.. Name 1 QB who would have done better in that situation. 8 covering your 4-5 depending on if the back blocked with 3 putting you on your backside 8 times

And to say UF plays a cupcake sched is kindof hard to prove when they still beat the other number 1's they play in the bowls. OSU,OU and Cincy. number 1 teams from other conf's= all wins, 2 were over at the half. if they lost these games then you would have a point about their schedule. not the case so hate on.
