I loved the discussion about evaluating pro games and thinking about prospects. Mike Leach’s perspective on this years ago always intrigued me. He had so much success finding quarterbacks when he coached at schools that weren’t headliners. So much of that he attributed to focusing on guys who had standout completion rates, believing he could teach them systems or that they could develop other skills, but that the ability to constantly complete passes was almost an intrinsic skill.
My mind immediately went to this during the point about certain players’ ability to always get the ball in the hole. Did Brian Harman’s career peak as high as ? No, but he won the US Junior Am, played on two Walker Cups, and here we are - he’s had a very nice pro career having won a major, finished runner up in another, and won 3 other tournaments on the tour.
