    Compares Taysom to Jake Locker again, which seems accurate but isn't really a positive, I would think.

    • Apo being out doesn't even move the needle for me in terms of how concerned it makes me.

        Good find, Commando. I hope he keeps the blog updated throughout the season. Tree is actually quite entertaining. I'm not on Twitter but I remember checking his feed for some reason a year or two ago and he was a hoot.

          They're both white, can run really fast and are big, strong, QBs. Locker probably has a bigger arm, let's hope Hill is more accurate and consistent. I'll give him credit for sticking with the inevitable white to white comparison, however.

            I mean they're both white, but I can't think of any black QBs that would make a better comparison. Let's just hope that the accurate aspect of that comparison isn't that Taysom kinda sucks at accuracy and decision-making, since that's, like, mostly what he's supposed to do.

              Saying he is Riley Nelson with a stronger arm is a better comparison then comparing him to Locker based on last years game tape. I am hoping to see something more this year, but Hill is far from a proven commodity at this point. If he has made the leaps we all hope he has, this could be a great year.

                Yeah, I just never thought Locker was anything special. I'm still pretty surprised he was drafted so high given his 56% career completion percentage in college.

                  Yeah he had all the physical tools but could never put it together. The NFL scouts still loved him on potential, but that seemed really misguided. QB potential is all about decision-making, which is very hard to coach and Locker didn't seem to have it. As the NFL incorporates more college concepts it'll become a bit easier to draft good QBs.

                          • Ogletree was a great read. Thanks for the tip.

                            Lamentably, it blew away my resolution not to have sky high expectations this year.
                            I think, perhaps, the only person who hates BYU fans more than ute fans hate BYU fans, is Bronco Mendenhall.

                                Seriously. He's a good writer. So many ex-athletes...well...aren't. He realizes that writing is different than just talking on paper.
