Shannon Dawson: "Luke Nickel has the ability to throw the football at an elite level."

[DMoney]

Shannon Dawson has produced Top 10 offenses in two of the past three years, and he is aiming for another this season. He met with reporters to discuss the group's progress:

On what he’s learned about the offense during the spring:

“I think we’ve got some young guys that are extremely talented. We need to work on consistency. We’ll have one period where we look really good, and we’ll have one where we don’t. And I think that just comes with reps because we do have some new...

"The way the summer’s organized now, it’s easier to get young guys ready to play because you do more football. Used to be it was harder because you did less football.”

Can anyone elaborate on this? More football in summers than before? Thanks

Encouraging - “JoJo is ready to show out”. This is music to my ears because a crazy talented player like JoJo, usually all it takes is waiting for the confidence to click, and when it does….LOOK OUT

Discouraging - “Emory didn’t play OVERLY great….but he didn’t play bad either” …..coach needs to keep it a buck here. He didn’t trust the young man enough to let him throw more than 5 yards upfield. With as dominant of a run game as we had in that game, the play action passing game should’ve been automatic.

He’s not going to throw a guy under the bus. Especially a good locker room guy like Williams who they’re probably trying to help get an offer from a transfer.

It’s because Emery’s arm isn’t strong enough to make those throws. Let’s keep it a buck here, the kid should’ve never been offered a scholarship here and if he ever wants to play, he should go to a group of five school.

Yeah no ******* clue what this guy wants, you want our coaches trashing the kids to the media?

I’m not saying trash the young man - I honestly don’t know what happened since the Clemson game. He obviously got hurt in the FSU game but I think all of us watching that FSU game legitimately believed he was going to find a way to win that game prior to getting hurt.

Seems like since he was hurt, his comfort/confidence has taken a step back. Emory was never a gunslinger but pre-injury he wasn’t afraid to throw the ball either.
