And so to get off to a faster start early in the year, not just as a playmaker because he made –

Plenty of chunk plays early in the season last year.

But we got into the month of December before we saw Caleb really executing the snap-by-snap of quarterback play at a higher level and throwing more consistently with anticipation.

Throwing catchable passes, that's the wildest thing about this past season with Caleb.

The good weather games earlier in the year were when he's throwing these rockets that can barely be caught, even when they're accurate.

You got to 30 and 40 mile an hour winds.

You got to below zero temperatures.

That's when we saw a version of Caleb that took some revolutions per minute off the football, that was able to throw it in a way that had more touch, more anticipation to it.

So I'd love to see him start there, and I believe he will start there.

earlier in the season next year.

And I actually had a buddy of mine who sent me one of the clips from Instagram where you were asking me about Caleb's accuracy improving by the end of the season, Marshall.

I said, it's going to really be hard during the regular season for that to show up.

I was really impressed because between that conversation we had in early December and the end of the regular season, his accuracy honestly did improve a lot more in that final month plus than I even thought it would.

Now he's got an offseason to really get into the mechanics of playing quarterback once

within Ben Johnson's offense.

It's not just about getting the playbook down rote memory style.

He can combine knowing this offense with footwork and timing and getting the information from his brain out through his right arm in a really sort of smooth manner as opposed to having to catch up to the play like he did for much of the season last year.

I love what Maryland head coach, and he's from the DMV, but he was a former Illini offensive coordinator, Mike Loxley.

He, back during, like in 2020, when everybody was just kind of out of work and sitting around trying to figure out what to do next, basically, Mike Loxley started a Minority Coaches Coalition program.

to try and attack the issue that you're raising here where there's not enough black coaches who are getting opportunities as offensive play callers, as OCs and offensive play callers, as quarterback coaches, because that has more frequently become the path to becoming a head coach in modern football.
