Back To The Future



















It was approximately ten years ago that the jerseys in blue were led by the "Domanator". Once again the cougs offense will be front and center under Brandon Doman's careful watch as it was given the Bronco stamp of approval. Coach Mendenhall was recently quoted "I believe Brandon is the best quarterbacks coach in the country and I'm excited he has accepted the opportunity to also serve as offensive coordinator. He is one of the bright young coaches in the country and the kind of person who exemplifies the core values that our program represents. He is a great teacher and mentor to all in his care, and I'm confident he will thrive in this opportunity to build upon our successes as a program and as an offensive unit.". Bronco said there was no timetable and no deadline for finalizing the rest of the staff. The cougs under Doman with talent like Heaps, Quezada, Hoffman and the rest of the cougar gridiron crew will in no time be back to the future.

Apparently there was never a desire to be elsewhere and the interview took a good three hours. Brandon was an amazing dual threat quarterback who ranks 3rd all time rushing only behind Steve Young and Virgil Carter. Doman was also one of the most efficient cougar quarterbacks ranking 4th behind McMahon, Sarkisian and Detmer. Quite a bunch of names to even be associated with. The players love him (maybe even run through brick walls for him). He clearly can recruit and understands the game in its entirety. As the cougs begin the march to independence Brandon is the right individual who will take the full potential of all the offensive players and elevate them to another plane.
"To be in a position that I am in as the offensive coordinator at this school is quite mind-boggling, and humbling for me, but I'm very excited," said Doman.
