my apology ... I misread the facts that I was reading.... but alas, your correction did not change the point that I was making.
I misread this statement to mean that Chow was still coaching Hawaii in 2016. But that simply means that that Brown was QB at Hawaii for TWO years that the backup couldn't beat him out.
“ ‘We were going to lose a bunch of guys to transfer, and we had more players who I had recruited,” the 39-year-old said. “When I got here [before the 2016 season], [former coach] Norm [Chow] had recruited a lot of tight ends, a lot of big linemen and good running backs. That wasn’t exactly run-and-shoot personnel.”

thanks.... the point I made was that Brown ran a different offense than they ran last year.... as you also pointed out.
With their quality of RBs and the reports about their use of FBs and TEs (as opposed to their 2018) offense, I thought it was more Pro style. My apology - but your clarification does not change my point at all.

Here is a good read on Hawaii football. It should help one of us figure things out

So, he waited until Brown was gone to decide that he had run and shoot personnel. Not really a ringing endorsement on his throwing ability.
Success in football is heavily dictated by the QB. If he would have had good RBs, heavy linemen, and a good throwing QB then he would have switched sooner.

I have heard Spencer will be the starter. The only hesitation from coaches is when he tries too hard to improvise and breaks off the play trying to extend it. He gets over anxious to make the big play instead of the safe play. It will take a lot of learning and experience but with his legs and cannon of an arm it’ll just take some time for him to develop.
I honestly think we will use Drew with packages like JW. Have a RS Sr in the red zone that you can trust, has less nerves and has been there before. Spencer will get trigger and feet happy for a few months so the safe bet is Drew in the red zone. It’ll open up the RPO stuff, QB runs, slants, the roll out quick throw to the 6’8” Jelani etc. Drew has a good dependable arm. I just think Spencer opens the field up more on those 40+ ya bombs

Incorrect my friend. Totally different cast including the receiver who was number one in the country with Brown prior to getting hurt. They picked up a couple of speedy receivers who could stretch the field, but most importantly as it relates to your statement, they changed to the run and shoot offense which I’m sure you know is a pass happy offense throwing 50 times per game. The kid who had better numbers is the kid who Brown beat out the year before.
I know I’m probably in the minority
Not if you’re a player

Please explain how he lost his starting job?
You can’t. The kid he beat out was the starter AFTER he left. He transferred BEFORE spring ball in Hawaii. I like good discussions as it relates to QB play, but my patience for those who throw inaccurate statements makes me feel like I’m tuned into CNN

Instead of spewing statistics to bolster your dog in the fight, why don’t you educate yourself and watch some film. Brown has a 12 or 13 minute highlight film on YouTube that illustrates his abilities. If you know anything about the game and specifically the QB position you will be impressed.
Oh by the way, you left off in your stats, that he was sacked over 30 times his last season at Hawaii

Most anyone who has played the game beyond the PopWarner level, will say they want to play with whoever is the best NOW. Regardless of seniority, awards, or fan preferences. I join the players with playing who gives us the best chance to win NOW....
regardless of that may be. As smart as I think I am about football and specifically the QB position, last time I checked, no one was offering to pay me $5M for my opinion....but let the discussion continue
