FOOTBALL The Kenny's

Kenny Minchey is playing lights out. The guy took some massive hits in the pocket and kept his poise through it all....@A&M and @ SCAR. Cant say enough about him.

...but we really need to cherish what we have on the other side of the Kenny coin. Kenny Darby could be a Randall Cobb type guy for us and the kid is a true freshman.

I would hope they both want to stick around after this season, but we need to be prepared to pay them to remove the possibility.

Amazing he didn’t start at Notre Dame. Vastly under utilized.

Someone mentioned it in the cfb highlight reel but the thing that went overlooked- he spotted the blitz before the play and told his running back to block the guy. Dude is incredibly heads up.

And Baxter because he is a legit player executed the block. Crazy what can happen when your team is made up of ND and Texas recruits.

It’s amazing what happens when you get QB transfers from top programs instead of some JUCO in BFE

Also, not football but Kenny Brooks has immediately lifted the program to at least making the tournament

He reminds me a lot of Stephen Johnson. Not physically imposing, but poised under pressure, makes the right reads and plays winning football

Helluva compliment. Stephen is the best qb we’ve probably had the last 10 years. Dude just made plays

We have a QB coach that knows how to develop talent. I think we have a good chance of keeping him while Darby gets slowly integrated.

I think it's too late for slowly integrated. Dude had 12 catches in an SEC road game and was the go to guy with Miller out.

Very true. Exciting talent
