UPDATE: QB Justin Fields Commits to The Puppies

[heversle]

On a side note there is something about Corral not participating last night that makes me doubt in him a bit. Did he not want to be evaluated side by side with Fields?

Corral definitely isn't afraid of competition. He was just competing against the best of the best quarterbacks in the country at The Opening, including Fields.

Yes I saw some of the videos of Corral throwing but we didn't see anything with intensity behind it. More pitch and catch stuff is what I saw posted.

He has a really strong arm. At The Opening, he won the Long Ball Competition, beating Trevor Lawrence by throwing the ball 77 yards. The kid barely took a two step drop before launching it.

Heaving a ball 77 yards has nothing to do with accuracy and playing ability. How often are wideouts running 70+ yard routes in games? I hope our errection for Corral is not based upon his ability to throw deep.

The kid can play. I'm not talking out of my ass. He's a 5 star for a reason, bro.

He does have some nice film.

I think he probably could have been. But the coaching staffs were so bad they ruined him. Not to take away from the fact that they tried to turn him into an option QB.

One of the GAs at the time said that they ruined Brantley. His confidence was destroyed.

Didn't Corral come after us vs the other way around?

 

[Buckman2000]

I had no idea he could move the way he does. I love how he buys time with his legs and makes the throw. I like the read option with him, just an overall great prospect.

That film is insane. The kid has a cannon and shows good accuracy. He is also able to put touch on the ball when needed.

If Spurrier had this kid back in the day, Corral would have a statue.

That's my understanding.

 

[GatorTAG]

Throwing a football is a lot of technique as well. I could throw a football 65 yds in HS but I had about an 80 mph fastball with a baseball.

Watching that made me think of this kid that played pretty well for us

Auburn is conspicuously quiet in all of this

The sucky thing is he will end up at one or the other. Worse case for us is Corral enjoys his visit to UGA next week and commits then Fields ends up at FSU and we have to play both every year

 

[gatorjohn]

Will either Fields or Corral be an EE? I would love to have Spurrier's take on these two.

 

[T REX]

That's my understanding.

My point being that Mac got lucky. Sometimes that's all you need. I hope it pays off. If he redshirts next year he may never play a down for Mac.

 

[GatorSkin]

Corral worked out for Nuss one on one earlier in the day can't find the tweets anymore either but he definitely worked out just didn't work out with everybody else I'm sure it was by design.

I'm not a big believer in luck. Corral sees that all the attention is on the SEC. Then Mac does a great job selling the program. No luck to it in my opinion.

In my opinion, Mac will still be here in 2019.

Yeah...Mac really sold Fields. LOL. You just admitted that Corral came to us. Mac put all his eggs in that Fields basket. Corral is basically a gift from the football gods. I don't think Mac gets past year 4. He's never going to get over the FSU/Bama hump. He doesn't recruit well enough and the metrics show he loses to teams with better talent regularly. Fact.
