re: Harris struggled with accuracy at the Manning Camp

And golf carts don't make adjustments to routes to catch the ball or have hands...the focus should not only be on the QB's throw, but on where to catch the ball. I once threw at trees in the back yard, but, of course, they don't move. Perhaps Harris should go out at night with a buddy, turn out the lights, have the buddy shine a flashlight on the field, and have Harris try to hit the spots--if he can't find human receivers to throw to.

I remember about six years ago reading "jordan jefferson looked spectacular throwing vs air."

Only part that concerns me. Kid just struggles with short passes.

Meh, it's just one of many things we should consider as we evaluate if he's making any improvement. This is a negative.
Once practice starts in August, the sunshine pumpers will be touting that he looks all world while throwing in the limited practice that someone is able to go see.

I'm not going to worry about it either way. Sept. 3rd is when we can start making evaluations.

It is truly amazing how people downplay the significance of a qb doing less than great in accuracy drills when the same qb has struggled with accuracy his whole career.

Yet I'm supposed to believe that everything will be all better when September gets here....you people kill me...all this expectation that you build for yourself and let the media build for you....it's turning into some kind of big joke every year.

If Harris struggles with his accuracy he won't be in the starting lineup for long. Miles can not gamble with this season at all. Etling will get the call.

I just pray that all of this is a mood point, please baby Jesus!!

The reaction to this thread is interesting. Harris has struggled with accuracy since he's been here. How you guys can manage skepticism of a report that he is still inaccurate is beyond me. Harris' inaccuracy caused Dural's season ending injury. He has to be better.

Two years later, DJ Welter had the best spring, summer, and fall Chavis had ever seen.

Believe it or not, we had a senior that had his best spring practice. DJ [Welter] had the best spring practice I can easily say that I've been around.

Etling ftw

Exactly. These guys want to downplay that it was golf carts. Like the qb who hit every cart and receiver isn't really accurate.

I wasn't able to go this year, but I watched the competition last year. The Mannings, Dak, Boykin, and almost every other big name QB that attended last year struggled (Boykin in particular). Throwing to high school receivers and then golf carts really seemed to throw a lot of the QBs off.
