Well they had Manzeil at QB so they ran the offense that fit him. Your going to be more wide open with him at QB. If they have a less talented QB this season they may get more conservative. Your offense is going to be more of a pro-set with a QB like Mett and more free wheeling with a QB like Manzeil. For a talented WR pretty much any top tier school or mid tier, or any NCAA school will work just as well. Some guys want to stay close to home and some want to move on and see other places.

You are aware that Kevin Sumlin is still their HC right? The same Kevin Sumlin that ran a wide-open, pass-heavy offense prior to getting to A&M, and prior to Johnny Manziel becoming his QB. A&M's offense won't be as productive next year, but the style is still going to be the same

Negative. This is simply not true. I guarantee you..randle, toliver and possibly Shepard would've gone higher in a better run offense with better teaching. Gary crowton cost them money.

I think it has a lot more to do with the coaches than the Qb's. Miles is a ball control play great defense kind of coach. Sumlin is chunk it and out score them.
