Contenders emerge for Cajuns' #2 QB Slot

[CrazyCajun]

Did anybody go to the open practice and see how Levi is looking? Napier seems pretty pleased with him at this point.

Yeah but does it really matter what Napier thinks? Plenty more qualified people here to make those decisions from watching practice

Of course he is going to say that no coach is going to trash his own player's (respectable ones at least)

Plus Lewis's competition right now is 2 rookies one of which is still rehabbing and a QB who could not start at Louisiana College.

Whether you agree or not, barring injury, Levi will be starting vs Mississippi State in the dome. How long he is the starting QB depends on his performance, but it is his job.

No one on here wants anyone on this team to fail... people are just worried after seeing jump balls & 1 read and run for the past 2 years

Their is only one PEOPLE I see worrying on this board.

Nape has said during radio interviews he has seen tremendous improvement in Levi.

He was right to start Nunez last season, and he'll be right again with the starting QB this season.

Trust the process.

We ain’t trusting someone who is a 2nd year head coach. We’ve got RP experts who’ve done internet talent evaluations for decades.

And someone on RP has always been right.

Just not the same someone.

When your reaction time is 2 seconds too slow no amount of reps will help

I saw zero difference from his start at USA 2 years ago vs his time playing in the bowl

Kid is an all world practice player when the lights come on he looks like a deer in head lights

While I understand your point in that reaction time is hard to improve he can benefit from increased reps in the offense that can allow him to read defenses better and make better decisions quicker in that regard.

Don’t agree with that term reaction time. His reaction time is great. Now his recognition of whatever is happening isn’t reaction time. It’s innate understanding what’s going on with things you’re seeing. That can be vastly improved.

He has too high of a release( floats it so high the WR /CB stop and have a smoke betore the ball comes down to earth) has worse mechanics than Tim Tebow ( throws with a hitch like a baseball) couple that with it taking way too long from him eyeing down an open Wr to throwing it ( that's slow reaction time)

That's from not being 100% sure of what your eyes are telling you.

Reps can fix that communication delay.

Lol since grade school the formula is Ball + Open WR = Throw

I could understand if we had a complex route tree but we ran geaux routes and slip screen and every so often an out route
