It comes down to decision making.

Tommy is head and shoulders above where he was last year in that department. He's making the right reads and he's tucking it when he needs to.

He has the ability to throw a great ball, which is one thing we could never really say with Taylor. I just hope consistency comes with time.

He's just 3 games into being a sophomore. He'll be fine. If he completes one more pass in games 1 and 2, he's a 57% passer right now.

It's more important he manages the game wisely. Make smart plays and lead. That's what generally takes the most time. With Taylor it never really came.

He could gain some good confidence with a win Saturday night. Then he'll have Illinois to get a bit more experience prior to the road trip to Michigan St. He's got good upper classmen support from Abdullah and Bell. If the kid grows quick LTFO.

Oh you don't have to convince me. I've been in his corner from the start. I remember during spring ball (or was it last year? I don't remember) I was watching practice during work and he dropped a beautiful 30 yard pass hitting someone perfectly in stride down the sideline. I know he's got it...and he seems to be the type of player that can be a leader too. He also does work in the film room, so I think he can get the "making smart plays" part down as well.

The pass in that gif was 32 yds in the air.

It's this right here that defenses are gonna have to load the box for (and AA of course). That'll put Bell and Westy in one-on-ones.

If Beck has an ounce of beans in his head, he'd has a reverse to Pierson El in his playbook.

I was thinking...we should put him (Pierson El) in motion on nearly every play. Have him run a fake sweep from the slot spot and just have that be a part of our offense. Obviously give it to him occasionally, but that seems like that would drive defenses nuts, and from there, he can either get the ball, run a route, block, pretty much anything. Maybe I'm thinking too much like an XBox offensive coordinator, but I think that would work.

I see a wingback.

Caution: I saw a wingback in Jamal Turner 2 years ago too, and I couldn't have been more wrong.

I like what I've heard about him though, moreso than with Turner. Don't remember where I heard it, but he's talking about how he wants to use the punt/KO returns to prove himself and show the coaches he deserves to be out there on offense. That's the kind of thing I like to hear.

Turner problem was he was never a wr. so while he was learning it on the fly he tried to use his athleticism more than perfecting his new craft. mix that with the fact we still don't use wr to their advantage.

Told YA!!!!

It didn't get many yards, but Westerkamp went out and Pierson El came in. Next play was a reverse to Pierson El.

Next time don't make it so obvious Beck. Miami saw it right away.

Pierson El didn't even go to the huddle. Team was already lined up, Pierson El came off the sideline, went straight to Westerkamp's left slot, and Westerkamp ran off the field.

Duh.

Like I said, Miami saw right through it.

Thinking Beck may have checked he hoop prior to this game. Need to be a little more specific maybe before the game?

Help the guy out. He is trying to learn.
