Solid piece on USF and QF.

http://www.espn.com/blog/ncfnation/post/_/id/137185/quinton-flowers-gives-usf-coach-charlie-strong-established-qb-again

Best part of the piece IMO: 

"He’s really talented and coming back off what he did, it’s one of those things where don’t reinvent the wheel with him," Gilbert said. "We’re just in a hurry to find out what he does best, and let’s go do that. It’s not like we’re going to try to take him down another path and make him comfortable with something new. It’s like, 'Hey, let’s do what he does really well, and let’s do a lot of it.'"

Love Gilbert's approach here.  Install the whole offense in the spring and then after getting a full evaluation on Flowers tailor it to his strengths.  This not only insures they will get the best out of Flowers but it also gives them a good read on Kean and Oladokun and how their skill sets would fit into the offense.

Was very encouraged to hear Gilbert say he did not want to re-invent the wheel, but do things that Flowers does best.  I would assume, that means a heavy dose of Flowers running, too.

Offensive coordinator Sterlin Gilbert started with an overhaul of Flowers' throwing motion. Flowers used to wind up to throw, wasting precious seconds in his delivery. That wind up is gone, allowing Flowers to deliver the ball with more accuracy and velocity.

"When we’re warming, up he’ll put his hand right on my chest and I can’t wind up and throw because that’s what I was doing," Flowers said. "Now, it’s just keep it at a 90-degree angle and release it. Everything’s falling into place just by listening to him. My release has gotten quicker. My ball location, my accuracy."

I didn't know this was a thing; but if he Ian adjusting his arm motion and it's making him more accurate.... watch the **** out.

Orrrr it could be like one of Tebow's countless "throwing mechanics overhauls" that ends up being nothing once the lights go on.  We'll see what it looks like this fall
