What is the GoPro or what is always on Nico’s helmet in practice clips?

[Nicovfl8]

If this sounds stupid, sorry. Bur whenever they post of video of Nico throwing, he always has something on his helmet, anyone know what it is?

 

[billcox0625]

Pretty sure its a camera, GoPro or something similar

 

[Alto1]

The more first person information the better I guess.
How he sees the field, goes through progressions, ect……..

 

[RDU VOL#14]

I’m guessing it’s something that’s being used to help him with his progressions. I guarantee if he comes out and lights the world on fire it will be a 3-5 minute story on Gameday at some point.

 

[NATHAN05]

It's a GoPro..........I agree with everyone else, during practice breakdown with Nico and/or when coaches breakdown practice film they can see what he sees. Just another tool to help him progress. I'll take it if it gets us to a natty!!!!

I don't think we'll have to worry about him setting the world on fire

 

[Pride85]

I am much more optimistic about his progression and feel you are very wrong.

Why ?

Maybe I am but he hasn't shown me anything for me to feel different about him...I hope I'm wrong though, I have no problem being wrong about him

 

[Vol865]

Should be using VR like LSU started with Jayden Daniels

And in that story they will mention his reputed NIL deal amount at least twice.

While not mentioning that Duke’s new transfer qb from Tulane is getting even more, along with other players.

Why do you think that?

At least twice

I share your sentiment. Hope we are both wrong but I haven't seen anything to suggest this will happen.

it's a laser. similar tech to what doctor evil used.

 

[Gladiator1]

I'm a fan and trying to be positive, but if we are having a hard time seeing the field, in year 3, we have some problems .

How many first year sec starters led a team to the playoffs this fanbase is so annoying at times… yall must miss the JG days… bama game showed me all I needed to see in big time moments… he will be just fine last year experience is invaluable and can not be measured or “seen”

There are HOF QBs who make wrong reads. This is simply a learning tool.

We won 10 games, lol.

Well you explain it very matter of fact.

But what do you mean see the field?
Do you mean reading progressions 1, 2, and 3 and none of them being open?

Do you mean him feeling the blitz and not losing track of the routes downfield.

Nico did a great job last year considering (and reiterate this for the 4th time) the defense had a beat on our scheme and play calling. This is why Litrell was brought in.
Probably the most important offseason acquisition.

I’m saying it doesn’t matter if you see the field when the defense knows almost all possibilities almost every play.

Nico’s feet, Sampsons heart and that defense got us to the playoffs.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

It's a secret.

He has one year of on the field experience. What makes you claim he is having trouble seeing the field?

What is Litrell gonna bring in? I know nothing about him

I think our playoff run was more so because of the Defense and Sampson running ability than Nico. but he did his job. I think our play calling was more of an issue than Nico
Using a GoPro or VR is a good idea IMO. It let's the coaches see what he sees and also helps him recognize defenses at field level. I'm surprised we haven't started using stuff like this before now.
