re: Who is the better QB developer out of these 2 HC's

Mullen by a lot

Alex Smith

Tim Tebow

Tyler Russell broke passing yards and TD records at Miss St

Dak then broke Russell's passing yards and TD records, and total yards and total TD records

He actually made Nick Fitzgerald (who was a high school, run 90% of the time QB), look halfway decent as a passer in his one year he started with him. He actually broke records Dak broke.

He then went to UF and made Franks look halfway decent in his one year starting

He then takes Trask, a guy that was a career backup in high school, and make him 3rd in passing yards and passing TDs in the conference, in only 12 games, his first and only year starting.

Tim Tebow and Feleipe Franks are literally the only 2 QBs he had with any decent talent coming into college. EVERYBODY else he has coached has gone on to produce great seasons, break school records, and even 2 started/start multiple years in the NFL.

Thank God O figured out the QB position is the priority position because like I've said, my guy was Dan Mullen back when they fired Miles.

Well Mullen put a TE in the NFL as a starting QB

Twice.

Mullen probably has the best odds going fwd at FL, but I wouldn’t count Jimbo out yet with the right kid.

That's true, but that thought also supports what many on this thread have already said: Jimbo needs "the right kid." Mullen's college QB's have generally done well even though they weren't necessarily "the right kid."

Mullen torched us with a guy who hadn't taken a meaningful snap in three years.
