Daniels throws a nice deep ball

But I just watched some of his ASU highlights for the first time. Other than loading up a bit, he does really well with throwing the deep ball

They are HIGHLIGHTS. They only show the good passes. Every bad QB LSU has had looks great in his highlights.

Sure but some peoples highlights are 13 seconds

I’ve never seen quarterback highlights that don’t look great. I’ve watched 6th grade basketball highlights that you would swear they drain every 3 every time. If you watch all the shots instead of the highlights, it’s a different story.

This is true. Highlights of players almost always show the TD or INT or sacks.
They never show the bad stuff.

This is a Dude that completed 65.4% of his passes his last year at ASU. Not sure where this thought that he can’t throw comes from? THIS IS NOT JORDAN JEFFERSON!

This is really weird.

There’s literally zero evidence to say Nuss is better. He played really badly against Arkansas and that’s all the game tape that we have.

I’m rooting for him. I want him to excel. Hell, I’d love for him to win the Heisman.

But right now, the media that has watched practices and the coaches have all either directly said or alluded to Daniels being a little better.

Once again, I’m rooting for both guys……but can you cite one piece of objective evidence that shows that Nuss is better?

Some people actually know sports and can pick up on certain things. I remember watching Anthony Jennings HS highlights and being like “uhhh ok”, even though I was pulling for him. Same for Arch Manning, his highlights are full of 5 yard runs and screen passes.

So you are making your point by saying you aren't impressed with the consensus #1 overall QB recruit in the country. Interesting.

My concern is the overthrows on short to intermediate routes that lead to interceptions...

Throwing a nice deep ball is great. But… what separates really good QB play from Average QB play is being able to read defenses effectively, and be able to throw very accurate short and intermediate passes (especially over the middle) in a place where the receiver can easily obtain YAC. Much harder than it looks.
