Definitely has some mechanics to clean up, but a few of his throws were off his back foot or with very little hip rotation/weight transfer and he still put some zip behind it which IMO shows he has some good arm strength (music to the "QB-needs-arm-strength" crowd's ears). He can push the ball downfield with just the flick of the wrist, when he gets some training from a college level QB coach and irons out some of his mechanics he has the potential to be VERY good.
I can see the footwork being cleaned up and this should be relatively easy.
Tbh, MSU doesn't have anybody on the staff that should be doing a lot of work on QB mechanics. More liable to screw things up. Work on the little things, and that's about it, imo.

Did I miss something and DeNarius no longer coaches at MSU? Your bias against him is well-known but it’s silly to not bring him up in your post.bobcat99 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 06, 2019 10:17 pmI mean, there's not very many schools that do.Cataholic wrote: ↑Sat Jul 06, 2019 7:05 pmSeriously?

No offense to Matt Miller, he looks like he can be a very good OC, but I don't think his strengths lie in QB mechanics. You start messing too much with a kids mechanics, and you can really throw their game haywire.
Maybe I'm wrong, it's very possible, but good QB coaches are few and far between. That's why you rarely see schools where all the QB's have the same mechanics. Jeff Tedford is the only one coming to mind off the top of my head, and his top guys all got re-tooled in the NFL.
Denarious and Matt are plenty capable. These guys are paid professionals who have been around the game all their lives. Saying they can’t work on the mechanics of an incoming freshman because they are “more liable to screw things up” is completely ignorant and disrespectful.PapaG wrote: ↑Sat Jul 06, 2019 10:45 pmDid I miss something and DeNarius no longer coaches at MSU?

Other than how he divided the locker room somehow, for reasons you never gave? Again, seems silly to mention Miller coaching QBs when DeNarius is one of the all-time greats at MSU and even the Big Sky statistically at the QB position. How are he and Miller "liable to screw things up" by working with Robison? You posted it, how will those two "screw up" the mechanics of the QBs?
I really don't want to get into the middle of this but people don't seem to know that Denarius is still the RB's coach. Matt Miller is the QB's coach. I don't doubt either of their ability to coach QB's. Just wanted that out there.PapaG wrote: ↑Sun Jul 07, 2019 2:06 pmOther than how he divided the locker room somehow, for reasons you never gave?

No point in arguing with 99. He is the self appointed expert of anything regarding football or the inner working of the Cats.

Essentially this. Thanks Tom.TomCat88 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 08, 2019 5:29 amBasically you don’t want to over coach. Good coaches tell players to “try” doing it like this, bad coaches tell players they “need” to do it like this. Quarterback isn’t the only position and football isn’t the only sport this applies to.
If you try to force a player, especially a productive player, to change it can have adverse effects. I think that’s generally what 99 is saying. At the same time every player at every college is going to get suggestions about ways to try to improve their fundamentals. Sometimes they’ll work, sometimes they won’t. The coach needs to move on and not dwell on it too much if it isn’t working.
There are exceptions to this, such as a flaw that is going to doom a player to failure. But by the time a player gets this far, those things have usually been caught.
