Or you know, because the starting quarterback at USC. Which is basically the college equivalent of being a movie star.

They originally suggested moving back his pro-day TWO WEEKS and that he'd be ready to throw by the combine.

The combine starts today and he isn't even medically cleared to throw.

He's teetering on being completely ****ed.

Doesn't the combine start Friday?

And if that comes too late in the process, he's looking at falling out of the 1st round potentially.

That sucks for him.

A lot.

Not really. He will wow at his Pro day and everything else at the combine.

If they keep pushing it back, it won't matter what he does at his pro-day.

No scout/GM gives a shit if he pushes it back to the end. They all understand that he is waiting until his arm is 100%. It's the most important event in his life up until now.

Of course it does. I was referring to your second sentence.

He ****ing sucks.

Watch his game against Oregon. As people were saying earlier in the thread, he was spraying the ball all over the place during this game against a pretty good defense, all while being pressured.

Everyone knows about his intangibles, but it's film like this that convinces me that he can be a very good NFL QB. If he's not bullshitting about his arm being "better than ever", I honestly think he could challenge Geno for the top QB spot. That's a big "if", of course.

But he didn't win the game so he must suck!

Barkley arguably had an even better game against Oregon in 2011.

It’s official.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, USC quarterback Matt Barkley has informed all NFL General Managers, trainers, and directors of college scouting in writing that he will not be throwing at the Scouting Combine in Indianapolis.

The letter explains that it’s a medical decision, based on the Grade 3 shoulder separation Barkley suffered during the 2012 college football season.

The situation has created some confusion because Barkley strongly suggested last week that he would throw at the Scouting Combine. Over the weekend, doctors advised him to wait until his March 27 Pro Day workout to throw for scouts.

As a practical matter, it puts all of Barkley’s eggs in his Pro Day basket.

Barkley is really intriguing to me. There are a lot of factors that hurt him (playing behind Kalil last year, having Woods + Lee, playing in a weak conference defensively besides Stanford, arm strength, mobility) but there are also a ton of great things he does on film and outside it in regards to his persona.

It's interesting to me to watch the stanford game from last year



and this years.
