re: Should Arch transfer next year?

Imo Sark isnt running an offense that is conducive to getting the most out of Arch and playing to his strengths. The side arm stuff is bad but mechanically by far his worst issue imo is his feet. When a QB throws the ball he should have his feet firmly planted on the ground, not on the balls of his feet, not drifting back, etc, and facing in the direction of where he is about to deliver the ball. This is how QBs get accuracy, whereas arm strength comes from a different part of your throwing mechanics.

One of the best examples ive seen of how this is done correctly recently is last weekend Gunner against Alabama. If you go back and watch all 22 passes he threw, nearly ever single one his feet are absolutely perfectly placed for how QBs are taught to play the position and for delivering the ball with total accuracy. It is why he threw some incredible dimes into some insanely tight windows.

But again why isnt Sark designing his offense to play to Archs strengths as a player, and his offensive roster as a whole. Where are the designed QB runs. They should be doing 8-10 of these a game especially since theyre struggling so bad running the ball traditionally.

Why are there SO MANY extremely long developing plays that are usually not blocked well enough to give him the time he needs for these kind of routes to get to where they can break open so he always gets destroyed if he gets the ball out with bad mechanics because he is panicking, or he just gets sacked.

Coleman and Wingo are incredibly talented players. Where is the quick and intermediate stuff with those guys to give Arch easy throws to guys who are more than likely always going to beat their defender on things like slants, hooks, mesh, deep outs.

Everything is attempting to push the ball deep down the field, and while Arch throws an incredible deep ball at times, their offense would be a lot better if they did the 2 things I described above way more, Arch would improve his confidence, and its easier to maintain your mechanics on quicker developing passing concepts where you might have an alert receiver on one side of the field, then Coleman on the other as the far wideout and Wingo beside him in the slot where the progession is just 1, Colemen 2. Wingo instead of designing plays with 4 guys in the progression + a hot route and a check down with someone running idk a flare or whatever the frick out of the RB spot or as a TE

I bet you are the life of the party. "every single one of his feet" is not humorous to you? OK, den!

I was just messing with you. It was actually pretty funny. Not enough to earn a lol IRL but still a solid joke on your part.

He’s a perfect fit for Southern Miss

Arch might be a Top 10 QB among draft eligible QBs....but absolutely NOT a Top 10 overall draft pick. He's not even a Top 10 SEC QB. This name recognition thing is wearing thin. We have all seen enough to know he's fleet-average at best. He's not going in the first or second round. NFL teams aren't that stupid.

The Mannings HATE LSU and Lane Kiffin.! I was in the stadium when the Tigers beat him 63 -18. We pelted the field with Oranges because we were headed to the Orange Bowl. Guess that's the reason....who cares! NOT A MANNING FAMILY FAN!!!

Sadly for Texas fans, Arch isn’t going anywhere

This is true in terms of how much the SEC hates Arch (kind of sad, really) but this sentiment is really based more on Arch’s “choosin’ Texas”. I get that it was difficult for most on this board because Texas is resented for its history, money, privilege etc. and its fans aren’t the local conference shills shouting “SEC, SEC…” at games. We pull for our team and always will. Regardless, Arch is an excellent kid and his time will come.
