Baker Mayfield could learn how to be a man from Davis Webb

When life does not turn out as one expects, the way a person responds reveals his true character. The manner in which Davis Webb handled his relegation to the backup quarterback position in 2015 shows that his character is far stranger than that of the quarterback that left Texas Tech because he lost his starting job to Webb in 2013, Baker Mayfield.

In the 15 practices leading up to the 2013 Holiday Bowl, Kliff Kingsbury staged a three-way quarterback competition between Webb, Mayfield and sophomore Michael Brewer. As we know, Webb won the job and both Brewer and Mayfield left the program.
