That team in June's first year was terrible and I think at the time he had trouble learning the complexities of the Run N Shoot as a majority of the routes are read routes. It didn't help that when he got injured Padron came in and lit Tulsa up and the rest was history for BLM at SMU.
Also, while I'm very happy with Bo Levi's success and hope it continues, and I also both root for an FCS team and find the CFL enormously entertaining, lighting up FCS and then lighting up Canada does not exactly place him at the top of either the college or pro games.
I think that, like Josh McCown, BLMΓÇÖs resume makes him more successful than 99% of quarterbacks who play college football, most of whom never take a snap at the professional level.

If you're replying to me, you're making a vastly different comparison (BLM > All College Quarterbacks) than I made (BLM < The "top" of the college and pro games). McCown is certainly comparable to BLM, as a longtime NFL journeyman/backup in whom a lot of teams saw value but who never made it as a starter.
I was trying to reply to you that, yes, Bo is hardly NFL HOF material. But that he is in fact a top performer if youΓÇÖre comparing to college quarterbacks.

Honestly wherever we go we either deserve or don't deserve because it was too favorable. We need to get a bowl win since we haven't since I believe the JJ days. Hopefully it's at the Frisco bowl or somewhere low tier and get an easy opponent. Main thing I hope is we get the maximum amount of practice days.
