FILE - Texas Tech quarterback Sonny Cumbie passes in the first quarter in Lubbock, Texas, in this Saturday, Oct. 23, 2004, file photo. Cumbie is on pace to become the third straight Texas Tech quarterback to lead the nation in passing, a statistic that leads some to question whether he's just another product of coach Mike Leach's wide-open offense. Four former Big 12 quarterbacks are coaching QBs at their alma mater, with three new in those roles this spring. Collin Klein, the 2012 Heisman Trophy finalist at Kansas State, is going into his fifth season as the Wildcats quarterback coach. The new trio are Sonny Cumbie at Texas Tech, Kenny Hill at TCU and Shawn Bell at Baylor. (AP Photo/L.M. Otero, File)
