Harris throwing in the middle and he still appears to be throwing high and behind. I know I am probably being a little hard on him with practice just starting but that was the issues with him last year. Not being able to hit the short passes.

I will give him credit because I did actually count and he hit 12 out of 20 passes, so that is 60%. I just wish he would get that ball down and in front of the receiver. He will get someone killed if he keeps throwing high and behind.

Man Donte Jackson has some serious acceleration

I was thinking the exact same thing. He needs to learn how to lead the receiver not throw behind them.

This should not be something he is still trying to learn in his junior year of college either.

Yeah should have posted. It's from Dandy Don. He does hit like the first 5 or 6, then kinda starts to drop off.

Yea because that drill is a real indication on how a QB performs in a game.

I saw a couple of high throws but it's not like he was consistently winging it 10 feet over their heads. OP is exaggerating a little IYAM.

A few fine balls should have been caught.

16 were either on they money or at least easily catchable.
4 were not thrown well.

The poor ones were all after the FB's went so it looked like he didnt adjust to the skilled positions speed.

from JD Moore to Donte Jackson was a pretty big difference. If he's eligible he needs to be returning punts.

I firmly believe if you do it in practice, you'll do it during the game too - I hope he shoots my belief to hell and back, and makes me eat my words...
