  1. I think numbers speak for themselves. I am not saying he is a finished product, but most of your criticisms are based on 2022 and the vast minority of 2023. If a guy is just throwing 50/50 lobs off his back foot, than explain his 70% completion
  2. Texas runs 18 yard stop routes and 15-20 yard outs. There are NFL QBs that struggle with that. Quinn does struggle deep at times, but I saw someone pt out that his worst throw is deep to his right. Been solid deep left and middle. Every QB will have a throw that he isn’t great at.
  3. He is competing 70% of his passes for 9 yards an attempt with a 4-1 TD to int ratio. That is kind of good. He also top 3 in the country in 4Q QBR. That throw to Mitchell in the back of the endzone will make his draft highlight film. Great throw to Sanders, when flushed. Does he have moments where he doesn’t look great? Of course, same with every player in the country. He also has shown the ability to bounce back from that, which is huge. Sit back and enjoy the ride
  4. It’s about situational awareness. When outside WR aligns on the hash, you can align outside. Inside the numbers, you can align outside. When WRs are outside the numbers, you don’t align outside. Your help inside is now farther away. Aligning outside only takes away a small window throw, that you want the QB to attempt. We all understand that there are exceptions like cover 2. That said you can’t be a slave to the blackboard. You have to ask yourself, why is the WR aligning wider than normal? Offenses generally have tells. Spread people out to attack the middle of the field. Use compressed formations to attack the outside.
  5. I didn’t say it killed Texas vs ISU, but Babers said opposing offenses are completing over 70% (think it was close to 80%) on in breaking routes on the season coming into ISU game. You think there is correlation there? Kelson and Babers were talking about this on the post game show. Babers actually said he thinks that might be what the coaches are teaching. Then him and Kelson juxtaposed that with how Akina taught leverage. I am not saying there are 0 situations to play outside leverage, but they are in the vast minority
  6. That is just bad football IQ. The football field is 53.3 yards wide. Aligning outside shade on a WR that is outside the numbers takes away the really hard throw in that 5-6 yards between the numbers and the sideline and makes you vulnerable to the easy throw in the other 47.3-48.3 yards of the field. Akina would have a heart attack watching that
  7. Never going to be perfect. There will always be a couple bad calls. Oddly the opening script was terrible. Once Sark went through that, he was great
  8. People have criticized Quinn for his lack of emotion, but it is really one of his greatest attributes. He wasn’t very good in the 1, though neither was Sark’s script (I have noticed Quinn locks on more during the script). He was straight bad vs OU in the 1Q. He rallied to look excellent in the 2nd half of both games. Texas is a 10 win team and the offensive success is centered around the passing game, yet people are constantly bitching. Think about the difference from last year to this year. The 2022 team saw every defense loading the box and daring Quinn to beat them. This year every team plays the pass and gives Texas honest numbers in the run game. Quinn is the MVP of this offense
  9. This.. Baxter ran in a gap scheme in HS. You have give Sark credit for tweaking the run game. Saw more gap schemes last night, GT Counter was a killer all game.
  10. The defense was great overall. ISU doesn’t have much to threaten Texas. If there is one play that got me riled up, it is as the slant against Watts. WR is lined up outside the numbers. Watts lines up outside shade to him. WTF!! Obviously, he gets beat on the slant. I am starting to think they are teaching that. That is just bad football awareness
  11. Was this Sark’s best called game at Texas outside of Alabama?
  12. Agree, but that is just Sark. He changed Worthy’s route on that concept, so you know he was hunting the big play. You can bet your mortgage Worthy was the first read there. Texas ran 11 plays in the 3Q, if you include this one , it was 3 shot plays. People are talking about turtling, but his 3Q play calling was overly aggressive in my opinion.
  13. this what is looked like from the end zone angle. That is probably a TD, if Quinn hits Worthy in stride.
  14. Just a bad throw. Read wasnt bad, the throw was. I would bet significant money, Sark has taught him to do exactly that. If we talking about misses in the 2nd half, you have to talk about the 2 shot plays to Mitchell, where he forgot to run.

    Texas RB Talk

    He is also a very good blocker. Probably the best in the RB room. That is pretty important given that Ewers is banged up and Texas is a passing team (pass to run), Keilan being healthy I would not be surprised to see it be mostly Baxter and Keilan.

    Texas RB Talk

    I dont think he has been healthy all year. He pops off a nice run and you say "there it is!!!". Then immediately limps off the field.
  17. That was Burke getting too far upfield opening up a hole. Hill could have player that better, got caught a bit flat footed. MUhammad took a terrible angle. Thompson said hold my beer and watch this angle. Rest is history.
  18. it was more that he showed public frustration with the defensive coaches. He was like a Surly poster "why were we playing so soft in the 2nd half"
  19. He just showed some frustration that I have not seen from him.
  20. That is a knock on pretty much every QB coming out of college. It is not that dissimilar to HS QBs. Most of these Qbs rarely get through their second read. It is what makes GMs and draft gurus look bad.
  21. I added this in another comment, but I think it deserves its own post. Sark’s response to a question about the secondary giving up yards was interesting. He said maybe the calls weren’t aggressive enough. Sark usually is pretty protective of players and coaches. I wonder if we see some changes this weekend (though PK was very aggressive in the 1st half)
  22. He may have to, unless someone says they will take him in the 6h round. Even if he comes back, we dont know where he will be next season. He wouldnt be a lock to get 20 carries a game.
  23. I don’t think Gideon and Muschamp ever coached together (GA doesn’t count). Either way that doesn’t change the point. Coaches like Raymond, Bo Davis, Larry Johnson and even PK have amassed a history of good work. Gideon and the Florida DC are still learning on the job. It may not be correct, but it is just logical to question the inexperienced coach first.
  24. These situations are polar opposites Florida has an inexperienced DC. Raymond has been one of the most respected secondary coaches for over a decade. Gideon is coaching safeties at the P5 level for the first time in his career. PK has a long history of success as a DC. That said Sark’s response to a question about the secondary was interesting. He said maybe the calls weren’t aggressive enough (something to that effect)
