"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.'" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

I would assume, that means a heavy dose of Flowers running, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thebullsfan Posted April 3, 2017 Group: Member Topic Count: 209 Content Count: 2,785 Reputation: 675 Days Won: 1 Joined: 10/12/2013 Share Posted April 3, 2017 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." QF for Heisman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QF for Heisman 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 Edited April 4, 2017 by Bull Dozer 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
