If he fits Fran/Jeff's vision, sure. Let's see if he does.

What do u think about his video. he has a gun. we could try a keep him from running but it never hurts that he can.

I'm a little concerned about his mechanics and how well they translate to P5 FBS football, but that's every dual threat guy we've brought in since Dungey

Shouldnt that be fixed immediatly upon arrival.

Changing someone's throwing motion could completely break them as a QB. You'd need him to unlearn years and years of instinct and bad habits.

Different sport but we are seeing it happen with JJ Starling right now. These dudes are elite athletes doing their thing one way and trying to change their foundation can hurt their career as much as it can help it.

His mechanics are decent enough. Not a concern of mine.

The biggest hurdle every one of these kids has is mental processing. Especially when they are used to being the best athlete on the field.

Finding and executing a way to deal with failure is the way from being a good QB to great.

I assume he was a Beck recruit. Any idea if he is still solid?

Will it be a Lamborghini instead of a Ferrari?

Hoping that he stays committed and will be our starter in a couple of years following an incoming transfer (or two).

Kind of rhymes right. Ferrari Jakhari. Though now I have given myself horrible flashbacks to Gus Johnson saying "Maserati Marv."

As solid as Becks last solid QB recruit.


I kid. Haven’t seen anything though that sounds like there’s an issue.

I believe we are still in good position here

 

[Sudano]

He'd be crazy to de-commit with the talent level of all these WR commits.

 

[CA Monk]

I have so much confidence in Fran & staff. If Jakhari was committed to another school and was taking an OV, Fran would flip him. There's no way he strays.

 

[kcsu]

He might end up starting

Over McCord?

No

 

[SuFTW]

No

Yeah, I was just jumping the gun.

You gotta stop with this stuff.

Any idea why 247's prediction machine has Jakhari down to 1.3% to stick with Cuse? Are they assuming he won't fit the pro style system now? Something else?

 

[tep624]

Yeah I remember something similar with Braden Davis….

I'm pretty sure he's coming up this weekend, yeah?
