What past or present Q-B would shine in Riley's new offense?

[K2C Sooner]

Anybody that has read anything about how Riley runs his offense knows he likes an accurate Q-B with the option to run.

I think if we could go back in time J.C. Watts would be a perfect fit.

Am I wrong? Discuss?

Well, no brainer...Sammie B.

(I think he got one of those Heisman thingys..

If (& it's a big if because I've seen him credit the injuries for making him become the passer he was on numerous occasions) you can assume that his passing ability had developed to anywhere near the level it did after he got hurt, a pre-knees Jason White would've been pretty much a death wish for the opposition.

Salt Lake, my older brother coached little league football(maybe the wrong name) for Chandler, Ok. He's a OSU grad, but has always been a Sooner fan. I'll never forget him calling me about Jason White from Tuttle. He had coached against Troy Aikman and told me White was the best he had ever seen at the junior league level. Of course, this was at a very young age, but he was adamant White was very special.

Good choice.............

Jack Mildren would have excelled in Riley's offense. He had a very good arm and speed.

Paul Thompson. Josh tried to make him a pocket passer, but he seemed more accurate when he was rolling out.
