Excerpts:
Max Browne, Pitt
The former USC quarterback was a huge recruit in 2012. Yes, 2012. He waited a while to get a shot to lead the Trojans and then lost his starting job to Sam Darnold in the first month of last season. A graduate transfer landed him at Pitt, where he will replace former Tennessee transfer Nate Peterman. Browne's talents should nicely match the pro-style system the Panthers run — with one caveat. Peterman thrived last year with Matt Canada as offensive coordinator, but no
w former Louisville and Texas assistant Shawn Watson is directing Pitt's offense.

Pitt Challenge 2017:
Brandon Harris, North Carolina
Harris rarely looked like the four-star recruit he was out of high school during his three seasons at LSU, completing 53.7 percent of his passes in 22 games (15 starts). LSU's plodding offense did Harris no favors. At North Carolina, the spread offense Larry Fedora runs should be more to Harris' liking. The graduate transfer missed spring practice, so he will have to win the job in preseason. Fedora bringing Harris to Chapel Hill signals he wasn't thrilled with the QBs already on the roster.


Pitt Backyard Brawl Friends:

Will Grier, West Virginia
Grier was last seen in Gainesville in 2015, giving Florida fans hope that he would be the Gators best quarterback since Tim Tebow. He was suspended for failing a test for performance-enhancing substances after six games, and then transferred out. After sitting out last season, Grier is eligible for the start of 2017. Mountaineers fans are excited, but it should be noted that Grier's resume includes four SEC games: one sensational performance against Ole Miss and three OK outings against Kentucky, Tennessee and Missouri.


Our Penn State Little Brothers Challenge:
Tanner Lee, Nebraska
The Tulane transfer won the job in the spring practice after sitting out last season. Lee was a starter for two seasons for the Green Wave and his numbers were not good. He threw 23 touchdown passes and 21 interceptions and completed 53.5 percent of his passes while playing as a freshman and sophomore on teams that had little talent around him. Lee seems a better fit for Huskers coach Mike Riley's offense than departed starter Tommy Armstrong, but it's fair to be skeptical about his ceiling.
