Hot dog boy may be too slow

Storey can’t throw it more than 10yards

Are we going to rely on a red shirt or true freshman?

I will let you in on a little secret... I am going to be the next Qback at Arkansas...

Chadwick texted me and said, "Hit me up, you a playR"

Although I am slow, fat, and cant throw at all, I can dance.. and every time I bust a move, we takn it to the house...

We got any high school quarterbacks turned skill position guys on the team?

Kelley might be capable if he'll drop about 25 pounds.

Even with the weight loss, not sure if he’s quick enough.

Gerry Bohannon may be our guy. Throw him in there and let him have 4 straight years under the Chadilac offense.

If I remember correctly, was Barnes out of Cabot, and did well at dual threat?

You must have an abundance of bullshite. It's coming out of your keyboard. I seent it. Storey spins it as well as anyone I've seen since Mallett.

From alla counts its just his motion that's all screwed up, not his arm strength. I do know this though, as opposed to the previous staff that for inexplicable reasons did not like playing their best players, Storey will get a legit shot at QB and may even win it.

In saying that, I could easily still see a True freshmen, either Noland or Bohannon starting over both tugboat and Storey.

Article on Storey from August. Don't know him, but sounds like my kind of kid.


FAYETTEVILLE — Regardless whether or not he becomes this season’s Arkansas backup quarterback to Austin Allen and the starting quarterback in 2018 and 2019 when Allen moves on, nobody should doubt that Charleston’s Ty Storey has given, is giving and will give his all to be a Razorback.

Storey has conducted himself selflessly and admirably. He sacrificed his Charleston High School senior spring semester to graduate early and enroll at the UA in January, 2015 so he could participate in the Razorbacks winter conditioning program and spring practices. Doing so would maintain a team unifying friendship rather than a dividing rivalry with redshirt freshman Cole Kelley of Lafayette, La., also contending for the backup slot to Allen.

“He’s a lot of fun to coach,” said Dan Enos, Arkansas’ offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach since 2015 under Coach Bret Bielema.

Storey’s rush to get to UA might seem futile now. For after that 2015 spring, he redshirted the next fall then seldom was budged off the bench as Allen’s nominal 2016 backup.

Any regrets? Particularly on missing his Charleston High spring semester?

“I definitely missed playing basketball and baseball with my friends back in high school,” Storey said. “But they didn’t blame me for doing it. I still feel like it was the best decision for me at the time. I’m a football player now. I don’t have time for the other sports and stuff like that so I think it was the best decision for me.”

Arriving early gave Storey time more quickly to get out of some bad habits.

“He was pushing the ball so it wasn’t a natural fluid motion,” Enos said. “It was a stop and push and you can’t do that. It’s got to be quick, it’s got to be fluid and it’s got to be violent for a good throwing motion. I challenged him and said, ‘You need to change that if you want to play.’ It’s taken some time but that guy works at it extremely hard. Now the ball is snapping out of his hand. It’s coming out really good.”

Last spring Storey passed like he never passed previously.


“I think that goes back to feeling more comfortable throwing the ball,” Storey said. “I got into some weird habit when I got up here. I was able to work with Coach Enos and some guys to improve my motion. I feel better than I ever have throwing the ball.”

What got him out of sorts?

Zac Robinson, a former NFL quarterback and friend of former Arkansas All-SEC quarterback Tyler Wilson, also helped correct the flaw, Storey said.

Wilson, was All-SEC starting for Bobby Petrino’s 11-2 Razorbacks in 2011 and even on the bad 4-8 team in 2012 under John L. Smith still achieved marks high on Arkansas’ all-time passing charts.

But coming out of shotgun snaps in the Spread formation at Greenwood, Wilson was unfamiliar taking direct snaps out of Petrino’s Pro-Style offense.

Wilson initially struggled getting the snap without bobbles which Storey initially would end up coming out of the shotgun in his Charleston days to compared to Bielema’s Pro-Style.

“It was different just worrying about that,” Storey said. “Your head really wasn’t where it should have been just trying to focus on defenses. You are thinking, ‘Oh, no! This snap is my bad!’ After that first spring I felt really natural.”


Everything felt so much better that by last spring Storey had caught up to Kelley, a big 6-7, 268 quarterback with a big arm who had impressed considerably redshirting in 2016.

Not that Storey, 6-2, is a wisp.

“He’s always been very, very bright and picks things up very, very quickly and is a football junkie but the biggest change is physical,” Enos said. “He attacks it in the weight room. I think he’s 220 now. He’s come a long way with his feet and his arm strength and quick arm speeding up his throwing motion. From last year to this year he’s like a different guy.”

Kelley keeps improving, too.

Both are still young quarterbacks with ups and downs but both have been far more up than down, Bielema and Enos assert.

Storey had the better day with the first unit when each were separately given a full practice with the first team last week, Bielema said before remarking Kelley had the better scrimmage last Saturday.

They start this week still trying hard to be No. 2.


Through it all, Storey and Kelley support each other.

Both “absolutely” call the other a close friend.

“On the field we’re definitely competing,” Storey said. “But even on the field we’re trying to help each other out and get better.”

That’s putting the team first even as they each strive to be first off the bench for the team.

Doesn't this offense require quick releases and accurate passes?

Morris Offense does not require a dual threat QB.

I haven't seen him work in college, have you? I don't know how much stock to put in it, but it sounded like he and Kelley were neck and neck according to the old coaches. I figured Kelley got the edge because Enos recruited Kelley previously.

I know Storey was really good in high school. Saw him play 3 or 4 times, and he was very good in all aspects as far as I could tell.
