Just finally having an OL will make a big difference. We all saw what a real (although elite) OL did for Nix at Oregon... And take care of the football. That's my biggest concern with him.

Running ability is nice but not essential. If Ashford can't improve his passing accuracy he either won't be the QB or we're in a world of hurt.

Nick Marshall was at 59% and the offense wrecked teams all year. But, While I think Robby is faster, I think Nick was a better overall runner. Still though, if RA can up his % by 10% or more it could make it just about impossible for anyone currently on roster to overtake him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Marshall had a unique skill of being situational aware of his surroundings that RA does not have. I am not sure that is a teachable trait. Nick Marshall was great for Auburn in the offense we ran at the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bro Johnny Mac 1,393 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I’m not saying that RA should or will be our 1QB next season but If he’s the guy, he will play better than last season simply because Harsins offensive didn’t suit his style of play. Freeze’s offensive is better suited for RA. Freeze is a better QB developer If he’s the guy next season he will be improved from what we saw last year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
