What Others Are Saying
Head Coach Bob Toledo
"If there is a better Heisman Trophy candidate than
Cade McNown, I'd like to meet him. I can't imagine anyone being more valuable to
his team than Cade is to us. He has the complete package - he possesses a strong
arm, quick feet and outstanding leadership qualities. He knows the offense like a
coach and has developed a comfort level with our system. But, above all else, he
is driven to succeed. He is an extremely competitive person who is always looking
for a way to improve, whether it be by working out with his teammates or watching
video by the hour."
