I've never seen Rusty throw. If he throws anything like the video clip, it reminds me a little of Kenny Stabler.

Rusty's throwing motion is horrible. He looks like he was playing football with a coconut. How was that never a concern for the coaching staff? Was Clayton just that much worse in the pre-season? I can't imagine Rusty having success with a motion that looks like he's delivering papers.

I don't want to beat this kid up but…like I said in another post, that throwing motion is going to be a problem throughout his career.

I know the coaches know a hell of a lot more than I do but I was shocked when I saw him throw. :o

I also know that the coach wanted to put him back in to regain his confidence since the game was well out of reach but Clayton needs the snaps as well and Rusty was embarrassing for me to explain to people that normally don't see FAU play. If you saw the tag line on the ESPN scoreboard, it was a "laugher".

I think Rusty controls his throwing in practive but was such a nervous wreck on game day that he just reverted to what ever felt comfortable no matter how inaccurate and unsuccessful...

Remember he was a baseball player but I agree with Boone02 the kid had how much playing time in a real game previous to this game. Clemson can be a little unnerving. He needs to leave the butterflies at home and get back in the game. It will be pretty much up to him but I don't take him as a quieter same with Clayton. These are two good kids that should develop well. That's just my opinion. :)
