Calm down I didn't say he was garbage.  He has skills that you could work with at the next level. He's a project from what little I've seen of him but all of these qb's are.

I’m very calm. I think folks forget how bad Florida is and how little talent we have around the team. We won six games last year. We will win 6 or 7 this year with an all new regime. I know you aren’t just bashing the kid unlike the other dude.

Everyone who has watch TCU knew this would be their toughest game. Coming off a dominant defense performence @ Texas by the way, where Alabama only won because Texas' back up QB couldn't even walk in the game. TCU can hang with the big boys.

 

Unfortunately we're probably gonna find out and I think you're wrong.

Yeah Florida’s defense looked much worse than Vandy’s. That’s a new low for Florida…

Just being honest. I see bad mechanics. Working from shotgun a lot. Mike Vick level passing game.

 

I just don’t see any of those as being positives in the NFL.

I’m sold on AR. Still got Bryce as my QB1, but I’d be good with Stroud or AR. Let’s see how Levi jeans does.

Im sold on his talent. It all comes down to interviews and what you think you can mold the kid into. I've said it numerous times. He looks pretty much just like Josh Allen did in college. But he careful interpreting that as a positive. I've never seen anyone improve as much as Allen has as a pure passer. You're basically betting on lightning striking twice. But I won't complain if he's our pick. Honestly, he intrigues me more than anyone else in the draft class.

I call it like I see it. I have no vested interest in any of these draft picks.  I'm only interested in who our coach will be going forward.  I'll concern myself with the direction of the team after that.

Right now it's just fun watching these kids audition for the big leagues. I've been focusing on a lot of different players at different positions trying to determine draft rankings mostly.

    • Ok--I have seen some sample items, and I would like to see something (if possible) measures on field intelligence--maybe how quickly you can grasp a playbook or absorb film session adjustments...Back when we had Morrison as team president and Hurney as GM, I offered to assess (as part of my research in education requirement at a University) emotional intelligence and learning styles of players to help coaches teach more effectively.  Morrison loved it and contacted me about it.  Hurney was not interested, and it fell through the cracks.  My pitch?  If only 50% of first-rounders become successful NFL players and that number drops significantly, can you tell me that you are effectively measuring talent?  Morrison thought it was a good point and wanted to do something that might improve long-term success rates--that would impact the cap management, etc.  Marty, according to Morrison, said he was not interested at this time and if so, he would want a football guy to do it.  (I told Morrison that I played in college and Hurney, a sports reporter at one time, did not. (He told me that Hurney played as a Guard in college--who knew?) Any way, about that time, Morrison left (2017) and the idea was dropped.  I reached back out a year later or so to Marty was still not interested.  A few days later, his wife accused him of assault or something, so I dropped it.
    • Pretty sure they still do the Wonderlic they just don't publicly release the scores.
    • I just thought he was under the radar--but thanks for opening our eyes to him.  I think we should have better measures for intelligence--such as reaction time, angles, etc. Legette is raw as heck, for example, and his RAS was very high.  We used to do the Wonderlic (which was not great) but to know how effectively a player makes on field decisions would be great.
