The reason Dart didn't come to BYU was because Jaren Hall had the position

locked down and BYU wasn't P4 back then. He had a starting QB opportunity at an SEC school and he took it. It's paying off as a senior.

I don't blame the coaches for not getting Dart.

Retzlaff QBR is #64 out of 131 total

Are you seriously comparing him to Dart - who is in his FOURTH season starting

No he is not…he is saying if we had Dart with this team we are probably ranked

They did destroy Kentucky and make quite a statement there…

Yeah OK fair enough. Would be great to have Jaxson right now.

As a Kaysville native it always kills me when good Ktown kids go elsewhere.

The ceiling for this team is the offense. We'll find out this weekend.

I think we're all aware that Retzlaff is not an elite QB this year. Don't know if he'll take a step up next year either.

I think he will take a step up. Not sure what the marginal gail will be

Could have had a legendary season with just a good, above average QB

Can he fix his mechanics this off-season is the biggest question?

He also said that the old set high release point wisdom is dated and not

So what is causing his accuracy issues? The fade wasn't even close.

I'd say he tracks pretty close to sophomore / 2013 Taysom Hill in the sense that

And how many deflected/batted balls has he had this season?

Beck also addressed that - said it was clear that Utah had schemed to do that

Huh wut? That's fundamentally not the case. He's thrown dimes on several long

His long ball is above average...his misses are medium throws.

This is right. His deep strikes have occasionally been spectacular though you'd

I bet his completion % further than 30yds is under 25%

Hes far from elite and only had a few comps in air over 30 yds the entire season

I’ll always have more patience with a QB that has a strong arm & can run, but he

Retzlaff is better at quarterbacking than I am at fanning.
