"Texas A&M will start LSU transfer Max Johnson at quarterback for this weekend's showdown with Miami, per Billy Liucci of TexAgs.com.
"Haynes King started the first two games for the Aggies and completed 64.7 percent of his passes for 461 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions.
"King's production wasn't terrible by any means, but Texas A&M head coach Jimbo Fisher expected more, especially since the team's first two opponents were Sam Houston State and Appalachian State . . ."
Michigan also has switched QBs, dumping the guy who led them to the Big Ten title last season for a guy who's even better. And now A&M is going with a TRANSFER who, through some incredible magic, apparently has learned the A&M offense in a matter of months. As we know, it takes at least 2 or 3 years to grasp the Iowa offense.
So apparently the former starting QBs at Michigan and A&M just didn't have "the body of work" necessary to retain their jobs.
