EJ does not have a problem reading defenses. I hear that a lot around here. When you watch his games from last year, you can see that he was waiting for his guy to be wide open and throwing too late. That's what you do when you have a coach always harping on you about playing safe. Frankly, EJ just needs to let it rip. Let this new coaching staff work with him. The kid has accuracy and he does know how to read a defense. His biggest issue is just settling down and playing ball...something he was never really given a chance to do. He hasn't even played 3/4 of a full season consecutively.
The only thing we don't know is how good he can really be. And the only way to know that is to let him play. I do think though, that Cassel is going to push him. That's a good thing.
