After watching Cam Ward in the Wazzu offense, I can see Ward being quite comfortable with the passing game concepts that were displayed.
Lots of similar formations and similar passing schemes. The biggest adjustment for him will be when its heavier formations and running under center (which the latter Will Howard doesn't do a tonne of either).
I still stick to an original post I have made is that, its 1A and 1B, one will have to adjust to run formations and the other pass formations, both bring a running element to the offense (Ward more towards the D'Eriq King style, which is pocket breakdown plays, and Howard more toward designed ones) but neither is that far off from the other. Neither were really "runners", just a bit of a threat if need be.
It's all about fit to be honest, form a locker room perspective. One is from from west Penn in rural town, the other West Texas rural town and both when to small college towns, so it'll be very interesting what happens.
Again, form a complete football perspective, both provide similar traits, with slight differences. Cam Ward just has me just slightly more concern cause he comes from Incarnate Ward, so naturally fundamentals might be not as strong who was in a Div1 program for the same amount of years, especially under an OC who was a former QB at similar levels with sniffs of the pros.
