Texas freshman quarterback John Chiles has yet to play a down, but he's already drawing impossible-to-live-up-to comparisons to Vince Young. The latest came Thursday from Cleve Bryant, Mack Brown's right-hand man for operations, in a speech to the Austin Longhorn Club on Thursday. "John Chiles, in my opinion, is ahead of where Vince Young was as a freshman," Bryant said. Of course, Vince didn't play his freshman year. He redshirted. And Chiles, who was elevated to Colt McCoy's primary backup after Harris was injured in preseason drills, did not play last week against Arkansas State. "He's really making progress," Bryant said of Chiles. "He will make some contributions before the end of the season."
