Haven't seen him play much this year but how improved has he been under Mullen for y'all so far?

Just from stats it looks like he's hovering around 50% completion rate

I know Kentucky was rough one for him but looks like Kentucky is helluva lot better than anyone expected thus far.

Improved as to be expected if not delusional. Kids finally being coached but has a long way to go.

He has went from 9-8 to 12-2 TD-Int ratio and anyone claiming that isn't good is a flipping idiot.

His presnap reads for blitz pick ups is World's better and he isn't getting sacked nearly as much. Also not runnijg out of bounds behind the line of scrimmage which he did...often.

Still needs a lot of work in speeding up his progressions and decision making. Needs to be more confident.

The improvement is clear, but it will be a slow process. He has one of the best QB coaches in football teaching him. But it won't be a miracle. Expect him to be pretty good next year once Mullen has a second full off-season with the raw talent

He's better than I expected. I still worry he is going to throw some picks when he faces a better secondary. Still a bit slow to read, and still seems to pick some pretty small windows and trust his arm to make it work. I think we will lose at least one game due to that if he doesn't get that worked out.

I'm not quite onboard with him being good by next season, but I'm also not pissed that he is out there instead of Trask.

He’s still below average. Not as bad as last year though.

We still have to mostly work the sidelines with him, but this new vertical passing game has done a lot to open some running lanes.

Kid loves to run the ball, but he isn't very good at it.

Last year he made about 2 or 3 throws all season that looked like a damn Aaron Rodgers NFL no-doubt frozen rope. This year he has 2 or 3 of those a game.

He's been money in the Red Zone and, most importantly, our coaches are not afraid to let him throw it down close. He has a real chance at 30 passing TDs this year.

He is limited because Of decision making. He holds on to the ball way too long. And he gets worse the more pressure you put on him to win the game.

But if the rest of the team is playing well and he gets feeling confident, he is ok.

Lots of room to improve.
