...according to Phil Savage

quote:

“You know, with Brandon, he’s obviously got a lot of — he’s got size, he’s got a ton of arm strength, he can really rocket the ball out there,” Savage said. “But the accuracy is the big question. This whole competition, you’re either throwing on air to basically high school or college receivers during that phase of it, and then you’re just throwing to golf carts. They posterize these golf carts with Papa John’s and they race across the field back and forth and then take off deep.

“So it’s sort of an inanimate object, but you can still see some degree of accuracy,” Savage said. “And I walked away Saturday saying ‘Wow, this kid’s got a lot of talent, but he just does not have control of the ball.’ He missed a number of passes Saturday that were just pitch-and-catch type situations

I really could care less how Brandon Harris looks throwing to golf carts and high school kids as long as he shows up on Saturdays starting in Sept., nothing else matters.

I could add that this was said about Jamarcus Russell, throughout his career.

Pretty sure his draft profile said it, too.

If he can't hit a golf cart how in the hell is he going to hit a receiver under pressure. It is starting to look like he doesn't have a throwing motion that promotes a natural control of the football. Some things can't be taught.

Well, if he struggles we have a back up this year, hopefully.

Bama shill.

This whole competition

Is a sideshow that is not a significant measure of QB talent or accuracy.

high school ... golf carts


Good thing there will be no high school receivers and golf carts on the field this season.

Who cares
you understand a comparison to J-Roc is a huuuuuge compliment, don't you?

JR was the best QB in LSU history. And that includes Bert Jones.

A friend of mine was working with the medical/training staff there and said the same thing- Harris couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.

Harris isn't tipping his hand especially with Gumps in attendance. Secret playbook!

Some things don't change. I expect improvement, but nothing spectacular from QB this season
