This surprised me. I thought he would get at least a full season.

 

Thoughts?

 

Why?? He should have been gone a while ago. Actually, Cameron should have been gone long before Myles. You can't keep getting the recruiting classes he's been getting, and year after year, come up short. Alabama is all the SEC really has, yes the SEC is LARGELY over-hyped, and they've struggled to even be number 2 to them.

    • Last year, Richardson was replaced by a backup quarterback, and we won a lot of games.
    • Yeah, I think Cowherd was probably stating a demonstrable fact about QBs not improving their accuracy much, rather than stating his opinion.  So its the message more than the messenger for me on this.
    • Hard to say at this point. But there will be a handful of QBs in R1 (Ward, Moss, Beck, Nussmeier). I can't see them only winning 2-3 games to have that pick, but if they did, there will be a new GM. If he believes in AR, then he will try to fix him for a year and parlay that pick into multiple picks to rebuild essentially the whole defense.
    • He was arguably the most inaccurate R1 QB of all time (depending on which metric you use). And for me, it's always been about the lack of touch. Occasionally, he will dip his shoulder and throw these little side-arm passes that have no accuracy, but most of the time it looks like one type: a fastball.   And he can be accurate on these passes, but it's also inconsistent. JT O'Sullivan mentioned this in the breakdown Week 1 (curious to see his and Baldy's breakdowns this week). When AR throws it with a lack of touch, it can do a few things: create too much anticipation and it becomes an overthrow, cause the ball to sail high and it can limit the angles he can drop in passes.   It's a big issue that has overall limitations on AR's passing. This offseason, (I believe) his personal QB coach talked about improvements from year 1 to year 2 with this ability to change speeds and throw with touch, so they have been working on it.. But so far we haven't seen these improvements.    Until that happens, he's going to be a highlight reel player who struggles overall, like he was at UF.
    • Home made passing motion is a good term.  The issue is that he's a pro QB who has not come to his profession equipped with the skill he should have been taught in his youth.  A failure of the modern football way that allows a QB to pass to the next grade by getting by on his natural athleticism but not really learning a marketable skill.     The scary part is that we don't know if AR has that natural hand to eye coordination that the good throwers have.  College is supposed to weed those out to where those students who lack it get cut and have to make a living using their actual college degree instead of getting promoted to the NFL.  I don't think we've gotten to that fork in the road with AR yet.
