Every college player who wants to be a pro should have external coaches outside of the college. My son sure AF will…but i guess that goes without saying for kickers. My son was traveling to see a professional coach in 8th grade…sure as hell won’t stop just because he’ll play in the SEC.


You going to bankroll this for poor kids?

“So lsu had the most productive offense in all of college football, but they didn’t develop the qb as great as they could for the nfl” It’s a laughable concept

Burrow and Daniels offenses both had great success at LSU but it was easy to see Burrow would translate to the NFL. The jury is still out on Daniels and what he will do once his WRs aren’t running around the field wide open. If you look at both their highlights passing the ball Burrow was on another level.

Warner is spot on. This is also the problem with as much player movement in learning schemes. Most college offenses run about 10-15 plays over and over out of different formations and sprinkle in a few different ones. Obviously a few outliers are out there, but in general it’s not a lot of different concepts. Just Y Stick, Mesh, Screens, and stuff

It’s an issue I’m having with Jayden Daniels watching his film now. Great arm, great legs, good vision when running but so far I can’t tell if he can make full-field reads.

Jayden Daniels went from a middle round dude(if that?) to a top 3 pick, WTF more does Warner want?

What he is saying out loud is that NFL people look at college football as their minor leagues. So he’s whining their minor league isn’t getting the guys ready. I actually love it. Let these NFL teams worth billions keep making the wrong picks. Maybe eventually they’ll simply create their own minor league. Until then I hope the college coaches continue to do what they are doing.

You better be changing if you want to be a pro. The difference between a good college kicker and pro are massive. Your college coaching staff is not going to get you there.

There are far fewer kickers in the NFL than QBs…every break in college ball you fly to your coach, wherever he is, and you work harder than you did in college. Hell, the NFL kickers (on their first contract) do the same thing.

QB is far more demanding position…I’d expect they have a staff of coaches outside their colleges…which is the great thing about NIL, these kids have the money to put in the work.

This mentality is what's wrong with kids and parents today. They want coaches to pander to the 1% at the expense of overall success. I'm sure going 2-8 every year is going to have scouts beating the door down to get to your son and his teammates.

For me CJ Stroud is a great example - obviously really good in college & OSU runs more pro-style concepts than most but they didn’t ask him to process & get ball out as quickly as he did last year in HOU - so I had no idea he would be so good at processing so fast! He’s better in NFL than what we got to see in college, but many times you just don’t know until you know!


It was easy to know Stroud would be good in the NFL. Just because all these scouts and wanna be scouts missed it doesn't mean the tape didn't show it. They create bias like everyone else and they see what they want to see

He was one of the best QBs in CFB for two years, so he was obviously really good there too.

Maybe they can tell us what they saw in Young and all the other busts that told them they would be great

The NFL is struggling mightily with Oline play. It's why the product has suffered, IMO


The CBA restricts the amount of practice - especially full contact practice. And, then, the coaches throw away opportunities to have their OL gel in preseason by playing starters one or two series a game. There's a price to be paid for that "load management".

The question comes up about Brock Purdy-the last draft pick in 2022.

Was he coached so poorly at Iowa State that no team in the NFL drafted him until #262?
Or was he coached so well that he translated into an NFL starting QB at the end of his first year?
Or were NFL scouts so inept they didn't see the potential in him?

Kurt should answer those questions too.

No one gives a frick that your kid is going to be a kicker.

My dog took a shite this morning. That’s about as cool of a story.

Did your dog take the best shite in the country? Because if he did it would be a cool story and I’d love to see it.

This has never been the case. Pro offenses have been more sophisticated than college offenses for decades. Wtf is he bitching about?

I understand the point Warner is trying to make, but using Daniels as your example is pretty lazy and wrong. There are tons of examples of Daniels going through his progressions and hitting a 3rd or 4th option. Of course, he had a really good OL that gave him time to do that. Nix would be a better example of what he's talking about.

This notion that Daniels was just throwing it up to wide open receivers is really stupid as well.

Who down voted this? Nothing truer has been said on this board. JB was better than his Coaches at LSU. You could definitely see his transition to the Pros.
