That's what happens when your biggest running back is 175 lbs

Worked fine when we had a linebacker playing QB and Percy Harvin. Free the little guys up and watch them fly.

I can't believe some of you are nit picking that throw. We haven't had a QB who could even come close to making that throw in years.

You beat me to it. I not only believe but have come to expect it from this crew.

He wasn't really 175. He was probably 20 lbs heavier than Rainey.

The fact LDR made a damn good throw in the rain and his spring game performance give me hope of better QB play this coming season. But let's see how he does against an SEC defense not his own.
I remember a pretty damn good throw by Driskel to Omarius Hines late in an away game that ultimately led to victory over TAMU. It was about 40 yards and dropped in over Hines sideline shoulder just before he went out of bounds. One pass does not a season make.

Driskel to Hines about 2:30 mark +/-.
Enjoyed LDR's throw. Just tempering my expectations on one highly accurate, slightly late throw in the rain during practice.

He was the first person I thought of when Brantley was mentioned in this thread.

I remember the throw to Hines as I was at the game... it was a beautiful throw. Driskel's issue was less his throwing ability and more his decision making ability. I also don't think anybody is looking at this one throw and saying we have a Heisman winner at QB.
The bottom line is that it is pre-season. Fall Camp has started and seeing our QB make a nice throw in the rain after the QB play we witnessed at the end of last year gives everybody hope that we may be good this year.
I think Del Rio is going to be very good (mostly because his performance in the Spring Game). I don't think he will be a Heisman guy, but I think he will manage and execute in the offense very well and make good decisions. There are enough play makers that if he can get the ball out quickly to the right guy our offense could be very good. I still remember seeing guys running wide open during the Bama and FSU games and if we only had a QB that could make decisions and throws those games could have been different.
I realize you are trying to temper expectations, but dude... it is Fall Camp... and we finally get to see a little glimpse of football. Let us enjoy it.

So I learned that Ahmad Fulwood is still on the team by watching that video.
Further proof...and he actually caught the ball!

Believe you me, I AM enjoying it. Discussing football - even the minutiae of a nice pratice throw - is a relief after months of discussing inane topics like incest, Rodman's broke penis, and idiots jumping from planes with no parachute.
