Back in the late 60’s through the 70’s, we had quarterbacks who were extremely good at running the wishbone/option. They were never going to be NFL quarterbacks, but they helped get us two national championships in 1969 and 1970. In 1977, if McBath and Aune hadn’t gone down with season-ending injuries in the ou game, you can make the case we would’ve won another national championship. The fact that we were undefeated and in position to win a NC going into the Cotton Bowl with a third string QB (McEachern) was freaking amazing. The point is we had depth at the quarterback position to be able to run the offense we ran at that time. Darrell Royal and Fred Akers >did not< recruit passing quarterbacks. One of the many Darrell Royal quotes was, “When you put the ball in the air, three things can happen to you and two of them are bad.” Yes, I’m well aware that two of our current quarterbacks are likely first round draft picks. Hopefully, that translates into as many national championships as we won with quarterbacks who were not as adept at throwing the football. Hook ‘em.
