    Thanks. I have been on the boards since 1997 when I was a student at Texas. We've spent decades as fans and board patrons feeling powerless to create any real change. The Internet, social media,

    I work closely with a certain previously committed 5 star QB's father (hint: its Quinn Ewers, for those who haven't been following recruiting closely like I have) and chatted with him a bit this after

For those of us who are not as skilled in scouting as others, what exactly makes this guy a project? Usually I hear that about a gifted athlete who had a lot of work to do on their mechanics and timing. This guy is slinging it accurately all over the field with ease. This doesn’t look like a project at all. 

He hasn't played against live competition in over a year, so there is no proof of his workouts transitioning to real games.

Usually Fawcet will say if it's a commitment. You don't get as much hype/attention if you say a kid is releasing a top 10 so he'll leave it as vague as "Campbell is making an announcement"

As strong of an arm as he has, he still looks like he throws off of his back foot a good bit. When he really learns to drive it, it should be insane.

Yep he seems to mask some sloppy footwork and poor body control with pure arm talent. Those are easily fixable especially under Sark. He’s already shown the ability to go through progressions in 7 on 7 which has undoubtedly bolstered his ranking. Cant remember who it was on here that said his numbers could indicate accuracy concerns. Gonna be hard to tell where he is there without some live bullets.  

Also his mechanics aren’t elite but I wouldn’t call them a problem. His release is quick enough right now and should get quicker as he develops.

He had a Top 16 February 1.  Not sure whether he narrowed it down further.

Guessing it's a top-20 now

I think the most important part is he's shown improvement over the course of a pandemic year with limited reps and is therefore coachable. I have faith in Sark and Milwee to provide whatever he needs to get there.

It almost looks like he is copying what he sees about how his feet should move, but they aren’t linked to his hips and arm so there’s no additional power.

Feels like you are describing my golf swing.

About 90 years ago when my Dad attended a Mizzou game, Jim Thorpe gave a halftime demonstration where he threw the football from goal line to goal line. 

Legend has it, Rick McIvor did this in pregame vs OU. 

Here's an example of where he's able to get a good plant in and throw a frozen rope, but his footwork getting there is just a bit labored. Just needs to get his lower half more active. I sometimes wonder if this is a byproduct of being in a more relaxed drill setting. In live games, guys can naturally pick up some snap in general just bc their brain is working much faster. Thats just a ridiculous ball he throws there though.

At an Austin Longhorn boosters lunch 20+ years ago I overheard a comment about him - “Arm like a cannon, brain like a walnut”.

Footwork usually gets sloppier in games, not better. His footwork from his sophomore film was very bad. He certainly looks like he’s improved since then. He’ll never be great with footwork, but he can certainly keep getting better.  

Are Greene, Campbell, Neto, Robertson, and Hutson all interior guys are does 1 or 2 project to Tackle/swing player as well?

So I'll take it the only note-able development here is that LSU isn't in the mix?

Also, aggy went from not being in his top 16 to now in top 7.

I cannot respect him desecrating the sanctity of a top-16 list.

Although getting left out of the initial edit doesn't bode particularly well for them.

Seems like announcing a Top 7 vs Top 8 would be pretty easy to catch prior to hitting send.

Now I find this hilarious. Or maybe it’s the 1942 talking. This is just great.

This is such bullshit. These fucking preemo donnas just change up their top 7 with a team not even in their top 16? I don’t know what it is with these me first gen Zers but back in my day your top 16 fucking meant something. You kept your word and you looked people in the eye when you said OK Boomer. 

Incoming fat hamm update on texags giving them hope aggy will get Anderson.

In a real game this a play where a safety gets a targeting penalty for recognizing the route concept and knocking the shit out of the receiver just as the ball arrives

I remember Newton... I think they had an interesting running back named Darwin Barlow in the 2019 class. Pretty sure Barlow is at TCU right now. Looks like they’ve offered Gatson already and could have a built-in connection with him.

I remember Newton...I think they had an interesting running back named Anthony Byerly in the 1982 class.
