I’m just not sure if under Pelini he would’ve been able to receive the proper toolage to take him from a mediocre passer to suitable for D1. He is extremely athletic.Bubba actually had ++arm strength. One of the reasons he was drafted so high in MLB along with his superior athletic ability.
I think he would have been just fine for what he would have been asked to do. HH was being asked early in his college career to be a passing QB..
Also keep in mind Bubba spent all spring and summer playing HS/Travel baseball and all winter playing Basketball. His QB skill set would have hopefully been much improved in a college program (even if it were NU)
