Everyone else may transfer. Drop the mic. I wouldn't be surprised to see Gatewood transfer if Nix wins the job. Think Willis and Sandberg stay.

autan 737 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Nineteen years since we signed a composite 5* QB. Jason Campbell in 2000 class. Congrats to Bo, but he still has to win the job on the field. I'm sure Jason will vouch to that. And I don't believe Jason's competitors were quite as talented as Bo's. It will sure be interesting this spring and fall. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigerpro2a 5,650 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 He is Legit.....his footwork for a HS Sr is great....mechanics....great.....His arm continues to impress....i noticed from JR to SR seasons he improved on his deepball a lot. Jr year he seemed to underthrow just a hair where the WRS had to slow a step but SR year catching in stride....but the throws when he is improvising are what get me the most excited....he has the arm strength to make any throw.....he can use his arm at different angles as needed....I really think he could definitely start as a fresh....however i really hope he doesnt....i want him to get a year to develope to the college game speed....but i wouldnt be suprised if he starts 2019. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Watched his senior highlights on an al.com piece and he should fit in fine at AU.....looked like had almost no OL in front of him in most games. Was under heavy rush on a regular basis and did a pretty good job of avoiding the rush, stepping up or whatever was necessary. He improvised quite a bit with some high risk throws that probably could not get away with in the SEC....but looked quick minded when pressured. Will be nice to have him on the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the throws....however ill advised.....like throwing across field against his body.....were damn impressive....i'll have to rewatch to get the time but there was one pass where he got a bad snap (which happened often) and he picked it up and threw under heavy duress from his backfoot falling backwards to an open 5 yard hitch route on the opposite side of the field...it was so impressive because it was jut arm and he threw that thing on a rope....as ole Trent D would say.....that was a dime!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will definitely have to learn about slinging some of those throws..... before or very soon in the season. I’m almost willing to bet he wins it early. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardin Drake 1,805 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Haven't really watched his film before. Bo is more mobile than I thought. Our other QB's are going to have to be very very good to hold him off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given his somewhat slender physique & him not being jet Nick Marshall fast I'm not sure how much Gus will use his mobility near as much as people are hoping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Speed from games against HS opponents can be deceiving....but willingness to tuck and run to salvage a play gone bad is valuable....hope to have that from our QB this season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's great if you are mobile enough to run the zone read effectively. Colt McCoy did it well at Texas for 4 years without Marshall speed. But even more important than that is the ability to elude the first tackler when pressured by the defense. I think Bo will be able to do that. It was a real problem with Stidham, along with holding the ball too long. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
