Four different quarterbacks took turns at the helm of Fresno State’s offense last year and, between Zack Greenlee, Chason Virgil, Ford Childress and Kilton Anderson, the results weren’t pretty: A 50.1% completion rate, 178.3 passing yards per game, a paltry 5.3 yards per attempt, and 20 touchdowns against 16 interceptions. And that’s with the Bulldogs’ blowout against Hawaii. Remember those six touchdowns Zack Greenlee threw?
Injuries, ineffectiveness and youth all played equal parts in the passing attack’s disarray, and while there’s nothing that says history can’t repeat itself, three of the four return -- Greenlee transferred to UTEP — and many who follow the program closely, myself included, have their presumptions of how the situation will play itself out in August.
