Look, I think Gatewood or Allen are more than capable of being very QBs at the college level. UK hasn't had an OC\passing philosophy that fostered a good passing game. Not to mention the fact that most of us don't think Stoops really has any desire to have a pass happy offense. But these 2 guys are capable of being what UK needs. I think there is good talent at TE and the talent level appears to be rising at WR as well. Ali will be back, Drennen will be a year older, W Robinson now in the mix, younger guys like C Lewis and D Crowdus and others (Oliver, Epps, Crumes, Harris, Cummings, Dailey, Branham, Sanders).
I mean, with a good OC and a coach that will allow growth in the passing, that's more than enough talent to have a productive passing offense. If that doesn't happen under OC #4, there really isn't anywhere else to point the finger other than at Stoops himself. I'm optimistic that phase will improve in the coming 1-2 years, hopefully drastically. It sure as hell can't get much worse.
