I was trying to see if I could spot the differences. To me, it looks like both Collins and to a lesser degree Daniels tend to "wind up". Nuss seems to move and hold the ball closer to his shoulder prior to drawing back so it looks more fluid with a sort of compact conservation of motion so the time from the drawback to release seems much shorter.

Maybe that is because the other two a more of a dual threat and have an approach that favors that style or maybe I am just seeing things

Not sure if any of that is right, I am far from an expert on this subject. Can any of the tRant coaches comment on this?

IDK about DT vs pro QB throwing styles. That may just be more to body type. Collins and JD are taller and may have longer arms. Nuss is definitely more compact, but I think you'll see the same thing with Hurley who is built more like Nuss.

It looks like JD's velocity has improved and from my untrained eye looks closer to Nuss than Collins in release and velocity.

I just love having 2 QBs that can compete at the SEC level and hopefully win games.

JD put on some muscle upper body to my untrained eye. I saw Collins live in HS and he can flat-out chunk the ball. Unfortunately for him, I saw him playing against Lafayette Christian and he was running for his life but doing a good job of it. He was the only reason the score was 33-6 and closer to 50-0. I am not sure how things will pan out for Rickie but he is easy to root for.
