re: Harris starting doing well, starting at UNC

With Harris, Fedora has the chance to put an exclamation point at the end of a decade of quarterback futility at LSU. When Fedora turns Harris into a 4,000-yard passer with nothing more than one fall camp together, it will be the ultimate compliment to his system and the definitive Dagger in the Les Miles "Fred&Barney Flinstones" era.
In 5 seasons Fedora starting quarterbacks have thrown for at least 3,000 yards, 20 touchdowns and completed more than 60 percent of their passes. Trubisky in 2016 had 3,748 pass yards, 30 touchdowns and a 68.2 completion percentage.
Trubisky, after only 13 starts ended up as the #2 NFL Draft Pick and had a better debut than Tom Brady or Fran Tarkenton. Kudos to Fedora. He practices smart. He runs as many plays as fast as possible WITH NO CONTACT. The same as ALA, CLEM, FSU, OSU and other elite Tempo programs that realize repetition is better than Smashmouth Practice like the Big Cat and Fall Camp 2016 that injured half the O-Line & Fournette. Miles had a history of career-ending injuries in practice..."We tawkin bout Practice"...rantards.
Fedora's expectations for Harris are higher because of his arm, accuracy, and added running ability. Fedora was also quick to point out that Harris was under center in 3rd and long with no Tempo far too often, taking 5 & 7 step drops leading to sacks and injury. His system has the QB in the Shotgun.
80% of all NFL Pass Plays (2/3 of all plays) are from the Shotgun and 40% of all running plays.
Fedora agreed with Swinney and Fisher that the ACC is what the SEC used to be before it became Top Heavy with Saban and the huge gap to "everyone else". The ACC made better Coaching hires and they utilize DTQBs to win games and NC Championships - 2 of the last 4. Fedora said the SEC, with the better QBs and Coaches, should turn around but when?
How the ACC used better Coaches and QBs to overtake the SEC in 2016
At the moment, the SEC is Alabama and Everyone Else. This season was the first in SEC history in which only one team (Alabama) finished with fewer than four losses.
For the first time since 2002, only one SEC team finished in the final top 10 of the AP Top 25. The SEC had five final top-10 teams combined from 2014-16, down from 13 in the previous three seasons.
The ACC had a 10-4 record for the year vs. the SEC -- topped by Clemson over Alabama in the College Football Playoff National Championship -- and won those games by an average of 11.3 points. For the first time since 2002-03, the ACC has a winning record over the SEC twice during a three-year period.
While the SEC continues to go through a coaching transition -- this past season was the least-experienced group of SEC head coaches in 52 years -- the ACC closed the gap by gaining an edge at quarterback. Elite quarterbacks from the ACC/SEC footprint started swinging to the ACC: Winston, Watson, Jackson, Francois.
The SEC despite all it's money skimped on Coaching hires and/or opted for Saban assistants.
Harris footwork issue is simply untangling the crap he was forced to learn at LSU and letting him do what he did in High School and as a True Freshman at LSU, HUNH, spread, play-option, read-option, to keep the defense on their heels.

Are you Brandon Harris' press agent or Larry Fedora's?
I wish Brandon no ill will. I hope he does well. Whether he will or not is open for question. There is little doubt that Les/Cam hampered the development of Harris. However, it also happens to be true Brandon was responsible for some of his lack of poise in the pocket and inability to make fairly easy throws to open receivers.
Maybe Fedora can correct some of the accuracy issues and maybe scheme will help mitigate some of Harris' pocket presence issues. I don't know.
As for the ACC, it's pretty top heavy with Clemson and FSU. None of the other teams in that conference are that good and other than Louisville with the above two, all had 4 or more losses last year.
UNC doesn't face FSU or Clemson this year. Miami and Va Tech appear to be their biggest games since we have no idea whether Notre Dame will be decent this year. If Brandon plays well, it will say a lot about Miles/Cameron scheme but also how much it screwed his psyche as well.
