Not sure what you really expected here I’d be willing to bet all the others not named Calzada can seriously compete if not outperform TJ. I’d like to see if the DD hype is real. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the first part of the video with the full offense looks like TJ was still with the ones, but I think that is Holden that comes in with the second string. I know they're rotating reps and it likely means nothing but found that interesting 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d like to see if the DD hype is real. Maybe, but he's a returning starter who was very raw and is now just entering his 2nd spring. He still has a lot of development and jumps that can happen. The idea is wild that TJ is a finished product who is done developing bc he didn't look good thrust into action as a Rs/TrFr on a team that the joined just a few months earlier Edited March 22, 2022 by W.E.D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, he wasn't SEC starting QB caliber last year and I'd be willing to bet he won't be this fall either. Would love to see him succeed because that means Auburn would succeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the jumps year to year get less dramatic and he's older This is not always true. Many QBs have made their biggest jumps from Sophomore to Junior and Junior to Senior years. There are many many factors in that progression. Coaching. How the player responds to the current coach he is at. System. How the player fits in said system. Maturity. Every player matures both physically and mentally on a different timeline. Yes ZC is older, but only a year and they have played in nearly the exact same amount of games so when it comes to experience they are virtually the same.

Just depends in which one improves more. IMO Im not using anecdotal examples. I didn't give an example period. You made a generalized statement about QBs improving less and less each year and I am saying there are many factors that go into each individual players progression timeline. Hell many players go that get adequate PT from Frosh to Sr years go through a slump after there first year only to improve drastically in year 3 and 4. It's a coin flip. You want to call that anecdotal then by all means lol. I agree it between those 2 and I fully expect ZC to be starter for the season. I am not pulling for one over the other, and will be happy with who ever gives us the best chance to win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clue who this guy is but he posted a picture of JT Daniels an hour ago. I know we're not publicly in it for him, and I'm assuming this is either a troll account or over-excited fan, but figured I'd ask if anyone knows if the guy knows anything since it's slow, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a tough one to fix. It isn’t bad decisions or mechanics or needing to hit the weight room or reads. The guy just doesn’t have touch. It’s like a basketball player that isn’t a good 3 point shooter. Accuracy is rarely an issue that gets dramatically improved. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W.E.D 11,071 Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 If we have a single open spot and it's July and we already filled our needs, I could see it. But taking him right now doesn't make any sense 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my position on him. A lot of fans say they don't want him because he's made of glass. That argument doesn't make sense to me. At minimum, he's better than 2 or 3 of the 5 we got on roster and upgrades depth. Most likely, he's better than all of them, at least right now. Even if he came here and gets hurt, you still have the others. But I know it's a moot point since he's likely not coming here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
