[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 771766, member: 2299"] Here are Browns stats by year. 2019 - 12 games, 21 catches (1.75 per game). 396 yards (33 ypg), 7 TDs. 2020 - 6 games (not sure if he played against ND or not but it's not showing him as getting any receptions). 11 catches (1.83 per game), 183 yards (30.5 ypg), 1 TD. Last year the 7 TDs tying Calvin's freshman record painted a picture of him as having a better year than he did. He had a good freshman year, especially considering the circumstances, but not the level of one that really warranted comparison to Johnson that would naturally come from mentioning the record. I'd say there were 3 major reasons his usage didn't increase the way you would normally think after a good freshman campaign. The first was the return of Camp who took over the #1 WR spot. The second was the emergence of Sims and the change in focus of the offense to suit his strengths (and to address issues we had in 2019 sustaining drives), away from the deep ball and more to the short to intermediate route which was away from Brown's strength and to his weakness. The third was the addition of Gibbs who imo took a lot of the "need to find creative ways to get the ball in his hands" plays that might have otherwise gone to Brown. And while Brown was good, he wasn't Gibbs good. Overall it hurts to lose him, but to me at least I'm not worried about replacing what he brought to the team last year, but rather the missed opportunity of what might have been with a better OL and more seasoned QB. Ironically, I think this transfers will hurt more the better we are next year as if we continue to struggle to sustain blocks then we probably wouldn't have used the deep threat he would have brought nearly as much.
