Yep, but for Wiggly too hot to handle.That deep ball to Wiggins
The moment was not too big for him? Dude it was a spring game.....throw him out there on National tv, first game of the year, in an NFL stadium against the best team in the country like these idiots on here want and let me know what happens. From the sound of it, he has a bright future but King is our guy this year and 2022 will be Garcia or TVD.Garcia looked like a seasoned QB. The moment was not to big for him. You want a QB that is in total command of the Offense. This guy has quite a few "flight hours" under his belt. Without question we got a Good One! Garcia is the real deal.
That pass to Wiggins was a dime. Ofcourse it was dropped
All of this! I’m right there with ya. When I learned that his HS teammates at Valdosta was still cheering for him to succeed, even after he had been declared ineligible there and had moved on to Grayson. That showed me that he had won over the Valdosta locker room in about a month. Which in turn, showed me that he was a different kind of kid. Then he went and won over the Grayson locker room in an even shorter time. Garcia is a natural leader. Players will play hard for a kid that’s built like that. What he lacks in ability, he will make up for it with guts and moxie. We MAY be sitting on a special one, man.First off let me be clear , I wasn’t blown away by Garcia’s Jr film, my skirt never left my knees. It didn’t blow up at all. I also wasn’t a fan of his dad and how the recruitment was handled, which is over now, but it played a part in my opinion of him. Back to the point of this thread.
Jake is the perfect example of highlight tapes being used to judge a qb is pretty much a waste. It’s also more proof we’re way too caught up in tangibles and what your physical gifts are. Qb is the one position that a lot more goes into it than that. The only way you can properly judge a qb is watching games , yes games with an “s”. You need to see all the intangibles , the leadership , and how he handles the ups and downs of a season. Which I never did , that’s why I always said “ honestly I don’t care either way if he commits here”. Boy was I off, I should’ve did some investigating before giving any opinion. Even though I didn’t say he sucked or I didn’t want, I was dismissive.
I’ve had my heart broken by highly rated qb’s at UM more times than Jennifer Aniston. From Brock Berlin (transfer) , to Kyle Wright , to the one that hurt the most Robert Marve. So I’m not just handing my heart over to either of these qb’s, they gotta earn my love. But for the first time in twenty plus years I feel very confident in the qb room.
Let’s be clear , I’m not saying Garcia is the next great or crowning him but **** there was intangibles that tell me we got a good one. He has every intangible you want in your qb. From confidence , moxy , leadership and just a calmness / presence in the pocket you can’t teach. He climbed and slid the pocket like no qb I’ve seen as a Fr in resent years, **** there’s a lot of Srs that don’t have that. His eyes stayed down field no matter what was around him or where he was manipulating the pocket. It was just unreal to think he should be on a Hs campus. The other things I noticed were anticipating throws , throwing guys open , unreal accuracy on every deep ball and the kid obviously loves ball. Anybody who moves across the country , willing to play at a high competition / class of football and winning over a new locker room to just play games , I’d say there’s a strong love.
Like I said , I’m not saying he’s the next great here but I’m very confident he’ll be a really good qb, there’s too many aspects of his game that are really good, things you can’t teach. You either it have or you don’t.
I look forward to the battle , TVD probably has a slight lead all things considered from spring but it’s far from over. This will go to the last day of fall. I just hope both stay and battle even if one supplants the other.
I think the thing that will separate garcia from TVD is the deep ball. Garcia was much more accurate with his deep ballFirst off let me be clear , I wasn’t blown away by Garcia’s Jr film, my skirt never left my knees. It didn’t blow up at all.

This applies to the switch from HS to College and from College to the NFL. No one knows how good you are as a QB until you get on the field.First off let me be clear , I wasn’t blown away by Garcia’s Jr film, my skirt never left my knees. It didn’t blow up at all.

Add Kevin Olsen to that list of QBs that left us heartbroken..

Nothing on his Jr film blew me away. Nothing about him was elite. Height / weight , arm strength, 40 time etc. That’s my point here , if you aren’t watching actual games you shouldn’t judge a qb. Period. That goes for me too. There’s too many intangibles you can’t see on a HL tape.Idk why people were so low on this kid. He's a much better athlete then he gets credit for & I think his arm is above average for sure. He was ripping them in effortlessly yesterday. Oh & he's a winner & accurate. The two key measures for QB imo.
I’ll go back to Chris Walsh.Add Kevin Olsen to that list of QBs that left us heartbroken.. I really thought he was gonna be our savior..
