You are looking at too small a window in time. He averaged 40 TDs from throws in HS.
UL staff gave him a different workout regimine than he had in high school, where he was an excellent passer.
ps With Louisiana's offense and prolific running game 3,000 passing yards may not return, but his accuracy will.
Turbine, this whole time I thought you were trolling us all with this workout stuff. You're actually serious about this? You are speaking out of your ass when referencing some sort of muscle memory loss due to weight training. Just stop. You're wrong and really just discrediting yourself every time you reference it.
If you want to draw your conclusions from HS go ahead but it doesn't really have anything to do with his play in college. I don't know where you got 3,000 yards from as that is a pipe dream at this point going off of what we've seen over his past few games.
Early on I was hoping to learn why all the dismal showings off the bench from experienced QBs who previously had good numbers.
So I just threw this out there as a possibility. I would drop it something besides "your wrong" was presented.
Like maybe an alternate theory.
Explain why almost every QB off the UL bench thrust into duty can't hit the side of barn or why they have zero touch on the ball, then if given enough reps almost all regain form of function.

No, you don't get to throw out some BS reason why we don't seem to recruit or develop good quarterbacks and claim its some sort of weight room issue that you have no way of proving otherwise. It is not my duty to somehow prove you are wrong. It's your duty, when making BS claims, to prove you are correct.
I've mention how I did various intense workouts in my 20s where I lost a measure of coordination in arms and legs for a couple days
I've shown how tearing your muscle can remove muscle memory that needs to be regained.
My limited theory is way more sound than hiding behind "not my duty" "your wrong"
Rotating your workouts so the muscle can build back stronger does not mean the new,muscle will know everthing the torn muscle knew. The new muscle's reaction to the exact same brain signal will be different and not accurate.
We are talking about finesse moves like receiving and throwing.
We are not refering to grunt moves like a lineman pushing off with arms and legs. Not leg burst of a running back. Not stiff arm.
We are trying to figure out how a QB that could once throw soft or hard can now only throw hard whether it's a 5 yard pass or a 20 yard pass.
For QBs and receivers, the time to get stronger is in the offseason.
If they quit tearing down their arm muscles as the season approaches (and just do toning) and instead focus on throwing repetitions of all varities, the accuracy of the throws and the catches will increase.
