Per Joe:

From a grading perspective, Pro Football Focus views Brosmer as one of the best quarterbacks in the country. While his overall offensive grade ranks 16th nationally among quarterbacks that have taken at least 20% of the snaps, his passing grade ranks tied eighth in the country with Vanderbilt darling Diego Pavia at 86.5.

The only quarterbacks ranked higher than Brosmer in passing grade are Ole Miss's Jaxon Dart (92.6), Indiana's Kurtis Rourke (92.3), Colorado's Shedeur Sanders (90.6), Miami's Cam Ward (90.4), Louisiana-Lafayette's Ben Woolridge (89.7), Louisville's Tyler Shough (88.3) and Mississippi State's Blake Shapen (86.8).

Brosmer, coincidentally, will face Rutgers on Saturday and it will be a revenge game for the Gophers and former Minnesota quarterback Athan Kaliakmanis, who is completing 53.9% of his passes for 1,650 yards with nine touchdowns and five interceptions in his first season with the Scarlet Knights.


Go Gophers!!

There must be some mistake. I've been told he's average. Also: 'not a stud'.

Maybe I've been misinformed...

Lol good one. I’ve admitted he’s played a lot better. He’s ranked by most metrics in the top 1/2 to top 1/3 of the big ten.

In addition, AK's stats are in reality worse than they appear. Here's a look:

As you can see, 6 of his 9 TDs came against Akron & Howard. Then he has 3 TDs in the following 6 games. Can you imagine what our record would be if we had to deal with this mess. I'm just glad PJ didn't try to stick it out with him after last year.
 

PJ made a very nice trade, switch, change, upgrade, replacement, exchange, transfer swap or whatever we are calling the process to get us a new and different and clearly better QB.
 

AK has arm talent. What he misses is touch and QB IQ. I know he was hurt his senior year in HS and I believe his 1st year here. I am sure he believed playing would help him grow as a player, but what he really needed was a year of being injury free and practicing with the right developmental coach. It is a shame he didn't see the potential of what could have been.
