No apology necessary! I don’t think that has changed in the last few years. All of that is the same as always

I get it, and I agree with part of what you’re saying. But it’s not like these athletes are going to fewer classes than ever. They still have to be eligible. The line between “student” and “employee” is more blurred than ever but they still must meet the guidelines that have been in place forwver

Does not answer the question (or apply to this team, directly, for 2025)

How many of the players that they brought in did they outbid the big schools for?

🙄

Remember him doing the same stuff at LSU. Was one of my favorite college corners I've ever studied. Fair to say, one of the best zone CBs in the last decade?

My point is - coaching matters with a lot of this, as does coachability. It's a two-way street.

Coaches can do things to make the MOF more accessible for the QB & create more trustworthy throws

QBs also must be willing to trust the scheme/players to win

Don't write it off!

He did that while playing in Lincoln Riley's version of the Air Raid. Two years before that, Baker Mayfield had the exact same rate in the same system. The year before, Kyler Murray was at 13.6%, which is above average relative to the rest of the sample

I have a 118-player sample from the last ten drafts classes

In that sample, Jalen Hurts ranks 11th in pct of throws to that area of the field in his last year of college (16.7%), the 90th percentile result

His passer rating of 119.2 on those throws is above 80th percentile

I chart a bunch of metrics at every position for #NFLDraft prospects

One thing I look at every year is how often a QB targeted a receiver between the hashes at a depth of 10-20 yards

This is NOT a predictor of future success, it is more of a descriptor of style of play
