What are some of the things DJ Uiagalelei can work on this


Dec 25, 2020, 10:01 PM

spring? I am thinking footwork quickness in the pocket and running the ball? I think we will see a little bit lighter, stronger DJ come next year.

zone/read and RPO***

He is doing great, in my eyes, but just for fun. Confidence in pulling it for himself in reads. Trimming some baby fat to get a bit more of a burst in the run game.

Yeah, he certainly has all the tools. Losing a little weight would help greatly I believe.

Footwork


Dec 25, 2020, 10:15 PM

Big time need

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Makin sure Trevor goes pro


Dec 25, 2020, 10:33 PM

After that then gelling with wru, rbu, and the line. Dudes a rockstar

Throwing the rock away rather than taking sacks, especially in overtime. Getting timing down with running backs on hand offs. I do believe more reps will solve these issues.

He just needs playing time


Dec 25, 2020, 10:53 PM

DJ proved he is a quick study. He mainly needs to get reps so he can master all facets of the offense and experience everything defenses can throw at him. Some things only experience can teach.

Re: He just needs playing time


Dec 26, 2020, 12:33 AM

Agreed. I think he's coming along well and just needs more experience. If he's the lead next season I see a stellar QB that will give other teams problems. I don't see a new TL out of him but a great QB on his own.

DJ will be a fine QB. He has already showed that and he has been learning from the best QB in history. TL is not only a great passer, he is also able to avoid the rush and throw just in the nick of time. When he is rushed hard he is still able to get off that little short pass over the defense to the uncovered player near the line of scrimmage. It’s a beautiful basketball like fake and pass move. Of course he is also a capable runner if the opportunity is there.

Staying slim so he can be a better runner.

Why ask us? You need to go to the coaching staff.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

The coaches read tigernet every day


Dec 26, 2020, 10:03 AM

They take a lot from here. In fact I’ve says for years that we deserve rings for the part we’ve played in these championships.

Dec 26, 2020, 7:23 AM

Getting his dad,Big Dave, to come out of his shell. After that chore, I agree that dropping maybe 10 will help his run game, but feel once he is the man he will shine. This young man is going to be very special.

He needs to work on attaining a 100% pass completion figure and an offense that eliminates the need for a punter or field goal kicker. Other than that, maybe learning a few new dance steps and encouraging his brother to come to Clemson.

Re: What are some of the things DJ Uiagalelei can work on this


Dec 26, 2020, 9:29 AM

Definitely agree with encouraging his brother!! Looks like Big Dave may be in our corner on that. :)

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Just needs reps. Needs to read the routes/defense better


Dec 26, 2020, 8:36 AM

and improve the thought process on the RPO. Looked really good for being a yute this year!

The one thing that ANY strong armed QB needs to work on,


Dec 26, 2020, 9:17 AM

TOUCH. You don't use Double Naught Buckshot to bring down a sparrow. That is why Trevor was so different from the outset. He already seemed to have the touch part down before he ever got to Clemson.

DJ will learn, and opposing teams will suffer the results of that learning. Meanwhile, I guarantee our receivers will be concentrating on the catch, because they don't want broken fingers.

Re: The one thing that ANY strong armed QB needs to work on,


Dec 26, 2020, 9:53 AM

Based on watching a couple of his senior high school games along with plenty of highlights, DJ already has touch. He knows how to dial down velocity and float the ball in when called for.

Dec 26, 2020, 9:26 AM

Let’s face it, Lawrence is a once in a lifetime QB. DJ will not replace him per se but I believe the DJ we see next year after practicing exclusively with the starters is going to amaze you. He took the reigns on short notice against ND and scored 40+ points. Threw some darts too. Have no fear fellow tigers, have no fear!

Re: What are some of the things DJ Uiagalelei can work on this


Dec 26, 2020, 9:35 AM

DJ may actually look better than TL next year in the passing game due to the progression of the young receivers and Ross coming back.

More weapons to choose from on offense.

Dec 26, 2020, 9:59 AM

If he stays healthy he'll be fine. I think he hurt his shoulder blasting that DB in week 3/4. He needs to dial that back as he'll be very important to our success. He can do that in Championship games if needed.

DJ stepped into a pressure cooker of a game and performed well. We are going to be fine at QB.

I was going to suggest that he should (as big as he is) be a tougher runner, but I am going to put that all down to his shoulder injury.

There is a transition that might be germans here. Sometimes big, gifted athletes are a man among boys in high school. They can excel on talent alone. It takes a change in mindset to be able to play well when ALL of your competitors are men.
