Clay Helton said tonight he would allow Max Browne to transfer to any school. When specifically asked about UCLA, Helton said that would be OK too. So Browne can go anywhere. It would be fun if Browne went to a team on USC’s schedule.
Inside USC with Scott Wolf
USC football, Trojans basketball and other sports news
That would be great! When will Rosen be back??? No one Nose…
Nice pun!
I could see Max at Stanford with a quality offensive line would do well
i believe Max Browne would shine at Stanford both on the field and off the field.
Could you imagine Browne playing behind ucla’s oline? Over/under 1 half before he suffers a career ending injury
But he should get to throw 70 passes a game before he goes down. Consider it an early combine.
Browne to UCLA? Stop it! He’d have to wait….again! Max – you deserve to play. Go to a school that needs a QB now/next year. Cal, OSU….?
I could see him at a Mountain West school, that’s about his talent level, maybe
UNLV, New Mexico, San Jose State, Fresno State?
Wyoming, colorado state, pick any MWC school
He could do a lower level Big 10 school, Northwestern, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota etc
Yep
UNLV has a decent true freshman QB they are high on.
Your absolutely correct, He’s from Hamilton High School in Los Angeles.
I’m talking about Dalton Sneed, from Horizon High in Scottsdale AZ
Armani Rogers is who you are thinking about, but I don’t think he’s playing for them yet. Sneed took over starting duties much like Darnold did, after the upperclassman couldn’t do it.
Well then there’s two of them, so which one are they high on ?
Dalton Sneed is starting right now and got off to a hot start (for them). But has since cooled down a bit. I was thinking him.
Armani Rogers was highly sought after, so im interested to see who they’ll go with.
How about Idaho?
He should transfer to a Big Ten school, that already has a strong running game, because he would prosper in a situation like that.
He’s not good enough
I am a little disappointed that so many are running Max down. This offense, with this personnel, requires a more mobile QB. If Max played for a team with a really integrated OL and strong running game, he would probably do well. I gather that Max throws long passes more accurately than Sam does (at this time).
He and Sam must really have looked pretty close in practice, unless Helton operated on a death wish.
Say what you and I might about Helton, this is one of his comments that shows his maturity and quality as a person. As when Juju committed that personal foul several weeks ago, and Helton didn’t yell, a la Jimbo Fisher or chemically imbalanced Sark, but simply said, “you’re a better person than that.”
If that restraint and teaching has no place in college coaching, something has gone awry.
Good point. Our offensive line was a problem. Max could do well at a school like Stanford.
Michigan’s offense would suit him well
Michigan is high on Christian McCaffrey’s younger brother , he’s 4 star quarterback .
who has a great mba program
UCLA does, but Max probably won’t get in.
Is Mr. Bucket on a timeout?

#where’sshuckiebuggs
He’s in deep depression over the shocking new revelations of Hillary’s Pay for Play scheme and rigged Justice Department “investigation”..
Oregon State.
Not UCLA. They run a pro style offense. It’s not working for Rosen and wont work for Browne.
Wisconsin would suit him well.
Yup
But he gets to throw the ball 70 times a game and impress the scouts.
“It would be fun if Browne went to a team on USC’s schedule.” – WHY?
How about following Orgeron to LSU? They always need a QB.
Great idea
My thing is that if you’re leaving for sure, then turn in your playbook and leave the team. I don’t want the presence of your impending absence around the rest of the team during the remainder of the season. Also, there are no restrictions as to where you can go and that means you could be playing for a future opponent as soon as spring. Why would I want you around for the things I’m installing for the rivalry and bowl games?
Max has been a great citizen, I wish him the best and I’m truly sorry things didn’t work out better for him here. However, if it really is over, then end it and don’t let this linger just so Max can “stay sharp” for his next opportunity. If you let him hang around then it’s something you’re doing for HIM and not your team. Just like you did it for him and not your team when you named him starter and stayed with him too long. Regard for Max’s situation has hurt us enough this year. Cut him loose if/when he tells you he’s leaving for sure and you don’t need to wait to find out where he’s going.
The last part of your final paragraph is a really good point.
I just want to see a little harder edge from coach Helton. I don’t want him to change who he is, but I want him to always remember what his top priority is – the program.
Gee Clay…Did we have the same instructors in our writing classes? You write just like I do! Or the other way around! LOL!
I’m looking into a ghost writer for the comment section myself. Keep putting it out there and keep it Real, Trojan.
Fight on, Clay!
He named him the starter so he would not leave. No ready back up in place—screwed the kid—could have played somewhere else right now! Gomer is not mr. nice guy!
I think loyalty played as least as much of a role in Helton’s decision. He recruited Max and then coached him for years, all the while telling him to be patient through the Kessler years. I think he is a nice guy almost to a fault.
Browne’s degree is in communications, should he want to get his Masters … Stanford, Michigan, Northwestern and Pitt have the best masters programs aside from USC..
So what do you do with a Masters in Communications? Teach?
Lol.. No idea… Maybe a sportswriter job!
Perhaps he could transfer to Fresno after they hire Kiffen. What a great reunion. They would both be there one year.
