Noodle arm.
The coach calling for a zone read on 3rd and medium in the middle of the field just drives me insane. Shaw can just go so ultra-conservative sometimes it makes me itch all over.
Jesus Darth I didn't just watch highlights. Thanks though.
Well you must not have watched many full games of his if youre seeing a guy who consistently throws old deep balls. Last time we had this discussion you literally posted his highlights and said look he can consistently make those throws and had a couple people point out that highlights dont tell the whole story.
Edit: FTR, I think Chryst can be an effective QB for us. He should be able to manage games, do a lot of the small things right, and keep us in games. But IMO anybody expecting him to sling the ball around and put up big numbers is setting themselves up for disappointment.
Yes Glitch... a 3-minute highlight film... gave me a negative observation of a quarterback that's been in college for 4 years throwing passes on games I've had some action on...
West coast teams are late night so if I've had an awful day sometimes I throw some action on Wazoo, Washington, USC or Stanford
I haven't seen every game live... but they have every pass he's made in college in ~7 minute youtube clips if you want to find a better deep ball than that one that wasn't vs FCS
It's also written into his scouting reports even back when he was highly touted...
God forbid I say the kid's really good, the best on the roster, but not Peyton Manning lol:
So you are taking something I said weeks ago to determine what I said a few posts ago?
I said Chryst has the arm to make the throws. That was it. I also said JG and Shrout do as well.
I also said in this previous post a few posts ago that Chryst has touch on his ball.
Basically, yeah. You only said that like two weeks ago and what youre saying now sounds basically the same as then.
Thats fair enough. I dont disagree with that. I think they all have arms capable of making tough throws. I just think the issue that needs to be considered more heavily is consistency.
I dont see how anybody whos more than maybe Chrysts best 2-3 games comes away thinking hes a guy who consistently place long balls well and with touch. Anybody whos taken a long, hard look at what hes out on tape thus far likely sees him as a game manager who can make some things happen with his feet every now and then and has a good day here and there where hell maybe hit a few long balls. And thats fine. Just being that would make him a better all around QB than we saw on our roster in 2017.
I think everyone is underestimating how good Tyson Helton is as a QB coach. That is the major reason Chryst came to UT in the first place besides the fact he wanted to go somewhere that needed a QB.
Helton will develop all of our QBs and again if consistency is all Chryst needs to fix Helton will fix that.
Again, I think JG needs another year to develop. He had a lot of things he had to fix.
