Could it be that the S2 could be an indicator  of not just success  but, more importantly, of a lack of success? 


My understanding is the S2 is an indicator that someone has the cognitive tools for success.

It can’t predict success because a guy also has to have athletic ability, drive, work ethic, etc. It’s rumored Fields is missing some of these.

However, without the right cognitive tools, you have no chance.

It is a performance based test that measures processing speed.  So yes, it is cognitive in that it involves split second decisions the way I understand it.

I guess thats whst I was getting at. It can help point to who has what it takes to succeed, but also who, cognitively, is going  to struggle  the most. 

Most of what I've seen is that those who do well have higher scores. Those who struggle the most have lower scores. I just am surprised that CJ is supposed  to have a lower score.

It measures a lot more than processing speed. 

It has 9 parts.

Another key part of the test is measuring how many objects you can keep track of at once. Think WR and defenders running around.

If you can process fast but can’t keep track of where everyone is on the field, you won’t be very good.

    • Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
    • Bryce youngs first starts for 3 years   51 of 103 49%     153 yards avg 6 ints 2 tds   But this is the year he turns it around
    • His third year was worse than Bryce's third year, significantly so.  And he had a game where he threw for 120 yards, two inteceptions, and had a fumble.  He had multiple games where he threw for more int's than td's.
