Storms were about to start plastering the area like many summer afternoons, which means gusts of winds picked up. While it started to rain and the winds were nuts, he continued to rip passes right on target.

Yes, no pass rush. But they have 2.5 or 3 seconds to get rid of the ball.


I'm only posting this as someone that gets to games very early and always watches warm-ups...this aspect of our QB's have been SORELY missing since Mett and before then Flynn and then Russell. But mostly, even in warm-ups with no rush our QB's have routinely floated balls, missed receivers, and in general looked like they couldn't hit water if they fell out of a fricking boat. The assumption that it would suddenly get better with live game speed and SEC pass rushers was always a fantasy.

I have no knowledge of Narcisse and I'll take your word for how well he slings it. If true, this is a huge step in the right direction. Because if you can;t hit a receiver in stride in warm-ups, why on earth should anyone expect you to do it in league play?

I'm excited for the kid have a real shot after everything he's been though. Good luck to him.

Miles isn't running the team anymore. The whole "you need a QB that runs the power I and throws 5 passes a game taking 17 step drops" argument is over.
The QBs outside of Flynn/Mett were inaccurate from center and gun.

Also no coach is going to call a lot of plays the players suck at executing.
Given a QB that gave good play success percentages Miles would call decent R/P playsheet. I hope Narcisse becomes that guy for CEO.

Dude looks thick. He's not some Lamar Jackson bean pole. Don't get me wrong, i would take that production all day and twice in Saturday's but Lowell looks like russel Wilson in terms of body type.



When he arrived on campus he was close to 240... he's now around 220.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: when he has time to throw, he is just as accurate as any other top QB in the country. The reason his completion % wasn't higher in HS was because he was always running for his life, not to mention the numerous drops due to how much heat he puts on the ball. Even so, he still completed most of his passes. He can throw on the run and create plays better than any other HS QB I've ever seen.

I can also attest that he's every bit of 6'3"; his height is not exaggerated. I am 6'3" and I think he may even be a little taller than me now.

I wasn't there to see it, and find that highly unlikely, but I'll take your word for it. That being said, that's highly uncharacteristic.

Honestly, stopped counting at six, but we took a break from demolishing ice cream to celebrate when he completed the first one.

I'm really looking forward to him being the best QB we've had in a long long time, just had a rough stretch there for a bit
