Mond will be special

He's getting better. You'd have to retarded or stubborn as frick to not admit that the kid is improving week after week. I like that he's trying his absolute best to pass rather than scramble. He's comitted to being a passer. I know sometimes that makes people mad because a scramble lane was open, but at this point in his development that's a good thing. Also, the sideline MILF said that he spent all the defensive series talking to the coaches and not just standing by himself or sitting on the bench. Hallelujah. That's the right attitude.

When we were down 21-7 and on our own 11 after a poor kickoff return, the season was on the line. Most everyone thought that we were toast. And then he did what he did. That play turned the game and gave us a shot at a legit season.

I am not on the special train, but I could see an All SEC player in a few years.

With our luck, either Sumlin gets fired or Mond transfers after this season.



Or both.

Mond

Completion %: 50.5
Passing Yards: 649
Rushing Yards: 157
Passing TDs: 6
INTs: 2
Rushing TDs: 1

Stidham

Completion %: 70.6
Passing Yards: 846
Rushing Yards: 33
Passing TDs: 3
INTs: 2
Rushing TDs: 1

Stidham has accumulated those stats with a better OL and Defense. Ausbon is our second leading receiver with 15 catches for 156 yards. Good decision IMO.

Needs a new haircut. But yes, seems like he has potential and he's a quick learner for a true freshman.

Yeah, he has potential. He needs to work a bit on his arm over the off-season. Dude has a lot of upside and it's not his fault he got thrown into the fire this early in his career.

IMO he is a more accurate Kenny Hill.

Kenny's issue was he made too many shite decisions with the ball in big games. (that an he thought he could party like Johnny and still ball out)

Kenny


Kellen

Sure he had an extra year (as a true freshman backup to Johnny, he didn't RS). I just don't see how anyone can say Mond is a more accurate Hill at this point b/c he simply has not shown it.

Kenny could hit the slants and short routes fine. It was the deep balls he had issues with. Mond has just as many issues on those and hits the mid range passes at a lesser rate.

Yes he can improve and yes he has shown some very exciting flashes. Right now he is at Trevor Knight's accuracy levels at best. That's not a slam. It's just the truth.

I could be dead wrong on my call there. I seriously just saw a noodle arm. But he seems to be improving mechanics as he gains confidence in the pocket. My guess is that with all of the pressure, he was forgetting to do a lot of the basics.
