Hal Mumme, the father of the Air Raid, made that decision after watching Holgorsen’s Mountaineer offense complete just 10 passes in their season-ending 24-21 victory over Baylor last year.
If you go back and study Mumme’s offenses through the years, there were probably instances when his quarterbacks completed 10 passes in a single drive.
“Hal did come to my Baylor game, which was game 12, and we couldn’t throw the ball at all that game and he goes, ‘I really didn’t want to have to kick you out (of the Air Raid Club) but I’m going to have to kick you out,’” Holgorsen joked.
