I posted valuations that are created using a number of incredibly relevant factors, but of course your "trust me bro" figures are totally legit.
Just so we're clear - Saying McCord is not a good QB isn't an excuse, it's an objective fact. He was in perhaps the most pass-friendly offense in the nation and put up highly pedestrian numbers. Will Howard had weapons that would likely be walk-ons at OSU and put up numbers that were not far behind McCords. It's like seeing someone run 100 meters in track spikes narrowly beat out someone running in flip-flops. Howard is much larger, much more athletic, adds the element of a running threat, and also was at his best against the best teams KSU faced (Texas and Missouri). It's an extremely obvious reaction to think he will be better than McCord but you are not smart.
Remind me of what Edwards did against OSU last year.
Again, not a single thing I'm saying is an "excuse". I don't think you even know what that word means.
