Jaccuri Brown is not hurt

DMoney said:
While I hope for the kid's sake and our sake that he improves into an NFL-quality passer, that's not necessarily the target. He just needs to be good enough to run a top college football offense.

If we project a couple years in the future, we should have an OL of 6'5, 325 monsters. If you add in a 6'4, 225 Jacurri Brown, your defense needs to worry about a tough runner who can brutalize you in short yardage while also having the ability for explosive house-calls. And if he hands off, you're talking about another physical monster in Mark Fletcher or a 10.4 speedster in Chris Johnson who can fly by if you get caught staring at Brown (think Demps and Rainey at Florida).

Jacurri needs to be able to throw well enough to take advantage of the heavy boxes he's going to face. If he improves his placement on horizontal throws, his zip will allow guys like Joseph and Washington to eat after the catch. And he will have opportunities for explosive plays down the field. This is a guy with natural twitch in his arm and playmaking instincts.

Jacurri laid an egg on Saturday but that wasn't the story all of spring. Cristobal said as much in his presser, and I can confirm. He just needs to keep working.

That's certainly a glass is overflowing picture of what could be potential.

As for what the Spring story has been for two decades, we should've had multiple Heisman trophies and a ton of other collegiate position awards. Mario saying whatever at the presser is something every coach has said that's been fired.

I'm not writing Brown off because he'll do that on his own if he doesn't improve his passing game. Let's just call it like it is, rather than prognosticate the absolute best outcome should everything fall miraculously into place.

When is just good enough, well, good enough here?

If he looks like this next spring I’ll get concerned, until then let him grind. Kids a hard worker and a gamer , i don’t bet against guys like that, especially those with his athletic ability / physical talent. I don’t think some realized how raw he really was.

Posters or coaches….
 
The chance that Brown will ever be good enough to lead a Miami team is minimal.

He's a great kid, tremendous hard worker, and athlete, but you don't have unlimited eligibility to be a high level QB.

I’ve learned to ignore the Greentree practice performances and judge these players under the Saturday lights. When it’s was time to perform J. Brown failed

Remember Hendon Hooker at VT....and then at UT a few years later. When we played VT he looked like Brown throwing but with way was less athletic ability. Brown has been here a little over a year, and the guys that ran the offense that nobody liked, and the guy that coached him as a qb both got fired.

FWIW, I was told the staff is trying to convince him to move to WR and believe he would eventually be a starter. However, Jaccuri is set on staying at QB.

It wasn't just him, caneville was on Twitter saying Jaccuri was pushing TVD for QB1 and he's going to start sooner then later.

And your problem is that you listen to dopes like Canesville. You act like every interwebz writer is equally credible and authoritative.

And for the record, @DMoney never said anything remotely resembling what you claim Canesville said.
 
Tank Grill said:
Nah, I just kept hearing all spring how good he looked. I can't remember where I heard it, it was either insidetheU or canesport but they said someone within the program said Jaccuri had the most upside on the team out of any other player. I guess I just fell for the green tree hype, I was even talking **** to UF fans about how he was the next stud Miami QB.

This post should be on your tombstone.

"I can't remember where I heard it".

"I just fell for the hype".

"I was even talking ****".

That's the MackBammer personality summed up in 3 easy statements.

I am not, I said once I like to cheer for Alabama when Miami isn't playing since i live in Alabama and people have called me any Alabama fan ever since. I don't think I've ever even watched one Alabama game from start to finish outside of the national championship.

Sure. You don't watch Alabama games...

Hooker was miles ahead of Brown.
