The concern this year with Hogan has been his turnovers. They've taken away roughly 13-17 points (if not more) from the team so far. (Army FG, no TD versus Army, no TD versus WSU). If he can keep on averaging 8+ YPA, it's a trade I'll make, but hopefully Hogan can have his cake and devour it too.
(The Hogan deep ball thing: Hogan deep throws come in two varieties. If Hogan can throw the ball on a line, he's probably going to make it. If it's a touch pass, it's very hit-or-miss and a bit frustrating. Note that the two INTs costing us roughly 10-14 points mentioned above were both attempted touch passes into the endzone. The good part is that the recognition was good: in each case the receiver was indeed open and needed a touch pass for the completion. The bad part is that they were laughably inaccurate. Again, something to improve upon.)
