QB Daniel Kaelin

The Athletic Elite 11 takeaways

Nebraska commit Daniel Kaelin was another player lots of the coaches really liked in terms of his makeup and how he handled himself. Character-wise, he shined this week. He also showed to be one of the most accurate passers at the competition.

Some of these writers… lol. “One of the most accurate passers”…. He won the accuracy comp…. Wouldn’t that make him THE most accurate passer?

Makes me think back to Mike Leach saying that accuracy is the #1 thing that can't really be coached:

"People make this mistake all over the country, and everybody can think of one, but there will be a guy who is big, strong and athletic, and everyone gets tempted by speed and if someone has a super strong arm."

"Then they say 'Well all he has to do is work on his accuracy. Well ok. He won't be accurate in high school. Then some college will take him, and then he won't be accurate there, and then the NFL says 'all he has to do is work on his accuracy,' and they'll take him there, and he won't be accurate there and then he'll be out of the league."

"The thing that's amazing to me, is that after all of high school he's not accurate, and now all of a sudden you're special and you're going to make him accurate? And then after college he's not accurate, and you're special and you're going to make him accurate? I just haven't seen that happen. I've seen guys improve, but they don't all of a sudden become accurate."

You are 100 percent correct, and just think he has at least another year to develop a stronger arm ( if that’s actually his weakness…)The more I see of this kid the more I think we are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel for Nebraska’s offense

Expecting that four star bump

He's our first Elite 11 quarterback?

First from the state. Not as a commit/signee.

Didn't Zane Flores get to the Elite 11 a few years ago?

Thought it was just a year ago for Flores...

 

[Decked]

Not sure if Flores actually made the elite 11 ranking list.

As a top 11 QB, he will be a four star.
