If he could hit the broad side of a Bubba Franks he'd have been a good one. His accuracy would just disappear for long stretches.Kelly was a HUGE recruiting win when we got him.
Had great athleticism. Was just too helper skelter with the ball trying to force big plays.
If he could have settled down, protected the ball, and ran the offense better those offenses would be even more dynamic.
Dorsey was taking his job regardless...If he could hit the broad side of a Bubba Franks he'd have been a good one. His accuracy would just disappear for long stretches.
Because he could hit the broad side of a Bubba Franks.Dorsey was taking his job regardless...
That and more...Because he could hit the broad side of a Bubba Franks.
Man, I was screaming back then about how we'd be special if we had a QB that could simply hit the targets running wide open. A QB that could see the field and make the "easy" throws. They didn't have to be super athletic, or have a cannon for an arm, but they did have to be able to hit Bubba Franks, who was one of the larger targets in the country.That and more...
I wish Covington had 1 more yr in 98...Man, I was screaming back then about how we'd be special if we had a QB that could simply hit the targets running wide open.

99, but yes, I agree. He was starting to roll by the end of the 98 season.I wish Covington had 1 more yr in 98...
Most underrated arm in UM History...99, but yes, I agree. He was starting to roll by the end of the 98 season.
Iont know about all that naDorsey was taking his job regardless...
I happen to know that as Fact....Iont know about all that na
What makes you say that if Kenny was more accurate. Not saying you are right or wrong. I love to hear stories and info about Kenny.I happen to know that as Fact....
Dorsey was taking the starting job from Kenny regardless of injury....Even if Kenny doesn't get hurt in 99....Dorsey is still gonna start in 2000...and KK knew that....hence him leaving UM....What makes you say that if Kenny was more accurate.

Where you around when during the short time Antwain Joyce was at Miami?
I heard that was part of why he left. That Butch told him Dorsey would be starting in 2000 so he left. Also heard Butch told Kenny if he left to play in the minors with the Rays and missed summer workouts again, not to come back.Dorsey was taking the starting job from Kenny regardless of injury....Even if Kenny doesn't get hurt in 99....Dorsey is still gonna start in 2000...and KK knew that....hence him leaving UM....
I think there was a combination of things going on at that time. Kelly being inaccurate stalling the O, Dorsey lighting it up when he started the last 3 games, Kelly's baseball career... There was writing all over every wall when it came to KK's future as the starting QB here.I heard that was part of why he left. That Butch told him Dorsey would be starting in 2000 so he left. Also heard Butch told Kenny if he left to spring training with the Rays and missed workouts again, not to come back.
It's true...I heard that was part of why he left. That Butch told him Dorsey would be starting in 2000 so he left. Also heard Butch told Kenny if he left to play in the minors with the Rays and missed summer workouts again, not to come back.
