Like Cal’s Jared Goff, UW’s Jake Browning has a unique feel for the game

The comparison between the two quarterbacks is an apt one, says Troy Taylor, a former Cal QB and Browning's high school coach.

Troy Taylor has mixed emotions about Saturday’s Washington-Cal game. He has long been a mentor to Jake Browning, the Huskies’ prized freshman quarterback whom Taylor says is like a son to him.

Taylor, who has coached Browning since the quarterback was 10 years old, has watched every snap Browning has taken in his first three games with the Huskies. He is not surprised in the least at what the young QB has done so far.
