What's Up with Thompson and his throws to first?

Don't want to be negative. The Tigers won! I am ecstatic! However, I have never seen an infielder at any level make so many wild throws to first base. His throwing errors could have cost us the game if it had been close.

Mental aspect of the game

I think it’s more mental than physical at this point. He just needs to relax and throw the ball without thinking so much.

He’s a freshman and these are big moments in big games. He’s been better defensively this year than what was expected so that’s a good thing.

to me it looks like he is spiking his plant foot on the throw and making his release point incredibly unstable and inconsistent. I am no mechanics coach but as a guy who grew up playing 3rd base that is what sticks out to me when I see him throw

He has been pretty solid for a freshmen, a couple just got away from him

He just figures if he throws them in the same area code as Morgan there's a chance he'll get to it.

That's right. The infielders think they can throw it within 10 yards of Morgan and he will catch it.

Looks line he hurries some times when he does not need to then overthrows

I think he heard the hype of him having the strongest arm ever at LSU and he’s overthrowing and not trusting his mechanics. Not every throw has to be a bullet… none of those plays were bang bang… he should’ve just made a nice, easy throw.
