Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet
Had Enough replied to Coach pop a bitch's topic in Football
https://www.texasfootball.com/records/?ref=subnav This is a link to Texas high school passing records. In basically every category, the player was from a 2000 season or later. Lukar from 1998 Stephenville was at the back end of a single season yardage list. Kirk Saul from 1986 was last on the list in single game yardage. That’s the stats element. If you take it to the NFL level for Texas high school bred QBs, that list from the 80s and 90s will pare in comparison to the past decade/20 years. Texas was late to the 7 on 7 party. Not sure when summer conditioning programs were allowed but that’s impactful. The offensive systems/coaching are massive changes. Any stats compiling discussion regarding QBs is only about a 20-25 year history. -
Looks like the Aggies passed up a chance at a quad 2 win. Or loss. I would hope if they borderline this works against them.

What about old people? Cause they get drafted at about the same rate no matter which state they reside.

Overall strong post with the belief the bolded part is underappreciated.

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet

Ewers was 97th in the country in adjusted completion percentage in 2024 in the intermediate range. Shough, Dart, Sanders and Ward were top 10. Gabriel 11th. Rourke and Howard were top 25. Milroe tied for 31st. Ewers was 16th in 2023. Ward, Dart and Beck were slightly higher. In 2022, Ewers was 108th in adjusted completion percentage. On the deep ball, he was 98th in 2022, 95th in 2023, and 47th in 2024. Throw a catchable ball is the first priority. There is nothing in the numbers to indicate he’s “very accurate” in that range. There’s certainly enough in the data to question whether he’s more accurate than those selected before him. There was one year in which it looked as though he could be something at it. The NFL has weighed in on the supporting cast to say these guys are playmakers and can get open. -

Sounds like must see Tv. I’d tune in snd watch. -
Vandy and Auburn are ahead of Pig in the RPI but trail Pig by 3 and 4 games in the conference, respectively. The conference season has comprised roughly half the total games. The conference schedule is heavily weighted as to how the team is playing now versus early season tourneys. The RPI has Uga has them ahead of teams they trail by 2 and 4 in the conference. UCF did fall behind other Big 12 teams but is still roughly 25 spots ahead of Houston in spite of a worse overall record and 4 games worse in the Big 12. BYU is ahead of Baylor with a worse record and trailing them by 3. Mizzou went 0-4 and dropped 3 spots. When I last looked at the KPI, it reflected better in my opinion. Conference records are more convoluted now with unbalanced schedules, but it’s a bit eye catching when conference records don’t align with RPI. Nevermind that Arkansas handled us far better than any other team. Hell, they beat us by more runs a game than some got in a series against us.

I want this thread to outlive me. The ol Quinn kicked ass in Q1 versus Bama in ‘22 always gets me. Bama also had 10 points then struggled to get 10 more the remainder of the game. So he didn’t have to face defensive adjustments. And also, if in 2021, we could quit at halftime or end of Q1, we beat Top 10 - OU, OSU, and BU. And Casey might be all American. We also beat future Super Bowl QB Purdy. On the road, at night. Up to that point in the Sark tenure, we often came out strong against good competition but struggled to finish. -
How much time do high performers spend in a game thread? Damn baseball officials.

I think it’s loyalty on Sarks part but also we can win this thing too. -

Name me the youthful QB, or any QB, that has had multiple pick 6s/fumble TDs in the same game. It is not common. The Aggies and Kentucky still don’t win if you give them another defensive TD. Didn’t we have turnovers on our first posssessions versus OU and Vandy? I guess Arch could have given up scores on those turnovers. A TCU or OSU performance was not resulting in a loss. Are you telling me a 2nd year in college Ewers, who skipped his final year of hs then whatever you call his stint at OSU would have him on the same level as a 2nd year Arch, having not missed his sr year and playing in the same offense? That my friend is a reach. Nevermind that as a team we are better now than then. You cite MSU for Arch. An independent source graded that performance as one of the top performances all year that took into account whatever negative plays you think he made. ULM was his first start, right? Undoubtedly amped up. I believe those errors were early in the game and he settled into the game. You know Leavitt is just as young as Manning, right? Terrible pass to end but otherwise hung tough against a far more talented team. By the way I’ve not once said put Arch in as starter. I am pushing back on the notion that chances are good he loses a game or two. -
There needs to be some reconciliation here. First, every team needs their best players to carry a heavy load. Same as it always was. For every team. And really that’s why we’ve compiled the record we have is because it hasn’t been one guy. You are most likely overvaluing the depth of other teams. Arkansas seems to be struggling finding a first baseman. Looking at your 2024 Texas Aggies, they had 10 guys with 100 official ABs. The 11th guy had 61. He hit .213 with 1 HR. They had 11 pitchers log 20 innings with 3 of those with less than 25 innings. We have 8 guys with 20+ innings. That doesn’t include Saunier or Burns. That does not include Rerick or Navarre. Two guys that PG had rated higher than Dylan V. We have 8 guys with 100 ABs. The 9th is Belyeu. Few teams have a Jonah Williams. Go look at UFs stats last year. Jack C was a monster. Everybody else less so. Were they lacking depth? Talent? Both? To many here Mitchell Daly was expendable. Nevermind he hit 5th for a CWS team that won the same number of conference games as the eventual national champion. If they were so deep and talented, how’d he hit 5th? If these teams are so much more talented and deeper, why don’t they show it? If there’s talent buried on the roster, it’s likely a freshman who’s not quite ready. And no matter the perceived depth of the roster, the play time distribution is similar so they aren’t going deeper into their talent pool.

That would have largely required multiple TDs by the opponents defense while the offense never scored more. For multiple games. From a 2nd year guy that has been educated on football his entire life. On a team with an overall talent/experience advantage. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen that. -
Yeah, it’s probably all of the above. He likely had his most reps ever and hit that now or never mode too. Outside of OSU and UGa the opponents talent was not that great so it better allowed him to showcase his skills.

The process is pretty bastardized. The RPI is a poor representation. The ACC as the #2 conference is closer in rating to the Big 12 at #3 than the Big 12 is to the Big 10 at #4. In checking it out today, UCF is 56th in the RPI. They are ahead of 5 teams in the Big 12 ahead of them in conference standings. They are bunched up however. Three of those teams are 3-4 games ahead in conference. Houston is 44 spots lower in the RPI but 1 game up. UCF and BYU are tied for 12th of 14 in the Big 12. They are 5-1 versus Stetson, #72 in the RPI. WVU and UCF are a good representation of the RPI east coast circle jerk. if you are 4/5 games under .500 in conference, you deserve to sit at home. You probably won’t notice it in the RPI, but it’s possible you may get a Mizzou or some other team that’s tanking it in conference to even get to that point. It’s basically been 20 years of the ACC/SEC squeezing invites/hosts/seeding. That’s likely part of the reason FSU has so many CWS appearances and no titles. Significant favorable matchups until the CWS then wilt against talented teams. FSU will never leave the state of Florida except for a few conference series, perhaps get some bottom feeder SEC team as a 2, Stetson as a 3 and SWAC team. They’ll then advance to match up with a “hot” Kentucky in a Super. A Kentucky that beat Miami that couldn’t handle Stetson in their regular season matchup. There you go. You’ve got a rep in the CWS. Pull that shit for 20 years, add pay for play, and you get the balance you’ve got today. Surprise. -

Could be. I do not know the answer regarding his agent. i do not necessarily get the sense that the voices in his ear have ever been great. I view Sark and crew as positives but beyond that I don’t know. I wouldn’t trust that treaty oak fella at all. -

I said put in the work AND consistency of effort. He has been humbled at this point. Maybe for the first time. For me personally, there was once a time in my life when I worked reasonably hard at a goal. But I did it in the wrong manner. So perhaps now he can become more focused. He has the opportunity. I believe he landed in a good environment. He will either succeed or not. There's been lots of references to him at his best - Michigan, Bama. So, yeah, there’s a point at which his preparation could lead to more consistency and provide him a legit chance of success and repeat those performances. Going all the way back to 2022, I have not been short of criticism. I’ve been consistent too. But I haven’t limited what his upside is. That’s where I sit today. -

Its merely speculative on my part but feel like he’s better trained than most for the next level. Now it’s largely about putting in the work and consistency of effort. This was my original statement. It does not conflict with your comment really. You could even add that he’s been on bigger stages than many of these other draftees, which should provide for better training too. Im not weighing in on whether he will succeed but rather saying that his past 3 years have better prepared him for the NFL than others. -

Sark has been an NFL coach of late. His offense is not gimmicky. He understands the value in recruiting with respect to guys succeeding at the next level. He coached a 1st rounder recently. Sarks resume would indicate there’s some benefit in playing for him to benefit you at the next level. Injury concerns and footwork inconsistency are dings on his resume that are not necessarily failures to knowing how to play QB. I’ve never been Ewers biggest fan but taking flyers on some of those other guys over him is odd. And a number of teams were not in the market for a QB. -

I probably screwed up the part I was trying to quote. In my opinion this is very difficult to determine. I do look into the numbers. The numbers say otherwise. He gets rid of the ball quickly relative to his peers. You can contrast that to a guy like Caleb Williams. His average time to throw in college was rather high. Certainly he holds the ball longer to extend plays, but then he goes tothe NFL and gets sacked a ton. From a numbers perspective but also a practical consideration those things are related. He’s not processing quickly enough to the point of decision. It cracks me up when messages board users talk about a QB going through progressions. One because if your first read is open, you don’t progress tothe next option. Some time Quinn, for example, gives the defense a false read himself but throws it where he fully intended to go in the first place. I can’t say with certainty, but we went to the check down pretty quickly this year. That’s likely not choice two - by maybe it is or maybe in his mind he legit went thru them all. Then you’re limited as to knowing what a QB is taught. Then to prove all that out, there has to be some data to support in my opinion. Now, I’ve stated on this board that in my opinion at times he’s too quick to throw. And that could be considered not going thru progressions. But he was decisive. And presumably he threw because that WR was open enough. Its merely speculative on my part but feel like he’s better trained than most for the next level. Now it’s largely about putting in the work and consistency of effort. -

I like this cause it fits my narrative. WVU at #2. Mizzou at #183 versus #152 in the RPI. Breaks up the SEC. I think to get preferable tourney seeding a moderate to weak non-conference schedule is the way to go. Compile victories. WVU may be the test dummy for non-SEC teams though. Don’t screw with west coast teams because a number of those schools out west have some pitching to mess you up. They may not sweep you, but that pitching can take a game or two. -

Now that you say that, I agree. I’d take Dion Marion over Difler though. Sark would likely not recruit Sam. He had an opportunity to have him as his QB. Ideally he wants the guy that can “make all the throws” Nevermind all those would be incredibly infrequent. In all my life, I’ve only seen one dude make a 1st down on 3rd and 10 scrambling for the first when the defense dropped 10 guys, but Sark doesn’t care about the dude that “can make all the scrambles.” Think Whittington and Johnson were related to being too bulky and inflexible this leading to their troubles. Flexibility issues cause problems. -

Are you going down the path that Trent Dilfer is better than Dan Marion? That Craig Krenzel is better than, well, a ton of guys? And by the way I addressed a specific point that had nothing to do with wins and losses. -
I try not to SEC. My bitterness and disdain for the SEC likely never subsides. I like that WVU has taken to that bogus scheduling. Win a lot of games, and it’s difficult to root you out. i also enjoyed all the close SEC games today. Aren’t they all barnburners?
