So Duggan is playing, or we’re planning to emphasize the pass with Downing as QB?
Guessing it’ll be a pleasant surprise to see Duggan trot out there at this point. And if he’s not out there, I’m struggling to see any semblance of a downfield passing game.

I’m starting to feel a Duggan-less OSO/TCU 2018 scheme vibe, minus Reagor.
