Just needs to work hard on that long ball.It'll be big to have some stability at Qb again. It's clearly his team now. It will be interesting to see if there's any competition at qb,or Hunt is named starter from day one. To me, he's the man. I swear,the last two games he really threw some nice balls. Catches or not,he was solid in his throws .
That's kind of the rub isn't it? Hunt's long ball just isn't there. If we're going to compete for 8 or 9 win seasons we need to make teams defend the whole field. I love Hunt's story and am rooting for him to succeed.If he develops some touch, watch out.
I was in the stands after the Texas Bowl game and there were only about 10 players that came out to shake fans' hands. THunt was one of them. He seemed to be quietly enjoying the win.
I've been told they have been & will continue to be hard at work work him on that aspect of his game.That's kind of the rub isn't it? Hunt's long ball just isn't there.

Yes he did occasionally make some good deep throws - not nearly as many as he missed. I can hit a couple decent shots every 18 holes of golf but it doesn't mean I'm a proficient golfer. At this level, in this league he needs to become a more consistent threat with the intermediate to long throws. I don't think it's overly critical to state this it seems rather obvious this was the weakest part of his game. I hope he does improve in this department I am rooting for him personally and I want a better team next year. Getting more consistent will help both outcomes.It's not so black and white. He did make some good deep throws. this year
Sure, Hunt can add consistency to his mid to deep throws, but he improved, and you have to consider what else he brings. He was our second best rusher. MVP against BC and in the bowl win. Leadership. Has the respect of the team. Owns the QB position and gives us hope to improve in 2014 and 2015.
Yes love to see good people overcome tough situations to succeed.Like Shamarko, he is a kid you want to see succeed because of personal situations.
I'm in the boat of hunt's long throws being fine. It certainly isn't arm strength. He should continue to improve with more reps, better wr play, and more confidence. Anything is an upgrade over nassib's rainbows
Yeah, "anything is an upgrade" over that Nassib guy - the guy whose "rainbows" set the SU records for total passing yards, pass completions, and passing yards per game, and is only the 4th QB ever in the history of the BE to pass for more than 9000 yards. That guy.
