I remember him having a sizable knee brace in the spring (and I believe fall camp).
As most know, arm strength isn't wholly generated in your arm. Throwing a football has to have your whole body working in harmony and a lot of zip is generated in your lower half.
Just wondering how limited he was last off season. His mid range and long throws still seem loopy like they were in his HS film. He doesn't need to be Brett Favre, but it is something he needs to improve.
I think back to the WV game on the play where we got a DPI, it was about a 20 yard throw where he looked like he was trying to drive it but it went straight to Barbels feet. Throws like that could be the difference in him being serviceable and a legit Big 12 QB. When he has to drive the ball it looks like he really has to load up to get everything into it.
