He threw a beautiful TD pass against your own team. You are right that he is still inconsistent (he airmails a lot of intermediate routes outside the numbers), but to claim that the only throws he can make are throws that a very good HS QB would make is just unbelievably stupid. You may have the biggest anti-Iowa bias of any poster on this site, which is really saying something.
How far can Iowa go?

Right throwing ability is not a problem for Spence. He can make all the throws, and has a cannon.
His footwork is subpar. And the reason he hasn’t been going through his progressions is because he’s a pants shitter.

He is in his 4th year at EIU, and he struggles making passes that most college starters should make on a regular bases. Your own fan base is saying the same things I am. That is not anti-bias towards EIU, just the truth. He plays because he does not turn the ball over, nothing more nothing less. I have coached many HS player that could throw a seam pass when the kid is wide open, its one of the easiest passes for a QB to throw. He only has to worry about leading the receiver to the inside, and away from the defender. But you knew that.
And anyone, defending his play, is clueless about football and the role of a quarterback, which you have been doing for awhile.
One question, why are you posting here? The ISU/EIU game was a month ago, but you are still here talking up the virtues of EIU. Go back to your own board and enjoy the circle jerk going on there.
Brodie0, Clueless as always.
He is Steele Jantz without the ability to run the ball
That’s actually not a terrible comparison. Jantz was less of a pants shitter, but not very bright. Spence is bright, but a pants shitter.
Tyler seems like a bright kid. I’ve met his family and they seem bright too.
My main issue with Tyler is he misses cutback lanes on the zone. I think he has incredible anticipation, speed and quickness. But he doesn’t have the best vision.
He has poor decision making on the football field. He also doesn't have incredible speed lol

That’s not decision making thats vision. You’re wrong.
You’re also wrong about his speed. He has plenty of football speed.
He dances around a lot in the backfield. That's decision making IMO. He's pretty slow
A lot of the dancing was because the o line was getting their **** pushed in. He had nowhere to go. He also can’t see the holes.

As much as I don't want to see Iowa in the CFP.... I'd absolutely LOVE to see them play Georgia... that might make their game against Stanford in the Rose Bowl look good in comparison.
