Pitt QB Max Browne uses USC departure as motivation
Pitt quarterback Max Browne has a background on his phone that serves as constant motivation, and as he describes it, “along the lines of the previous school.”
Pressed for details, Browne demurred. “I don’t want to get in trouble with that, but let’s just say it’s a constant reminder of what happened.”
What happened at Southern California is why Browne moved about as far away as one could get from Los Angeles, to a program that has become a popular landing spot for graduate transfer quarterbacks. Browne hopes to join Tom Savage and Nathan Peterman before him as another success story, especially after his USC career ended unceremoniously just three games into last season.
