During seven 7-on-7 drills, redshirt sophomore quarterback Jason Bean (Mansfield) connected with redshirt sophomore receiver Roderic Burns (Houston) for a 20-yard gain, fitting the throw into a tight window.

Bean and senior receiver Jaelon Darden (Houston) connected on a 65-yard touchdown during the team period, where Bean showcased his arm strength, getting the ball to Darden ahead of the safety, and then Darden darted past the safety and made his way to paydirt.

Bean picked out redshirt senior receiver Deion Hair-Griffin (Fort Worth) for a 20-plus yard gain on a well-placed ball, which allowed Hair-Griffin to make a sliding grab safely away from the defender.

Remember the good ol’ days, when people said Mason would never be successful because he “couldn’t complete a deep ball” or “couldn’t see over D1 linemen to throw” or “couldn’t protect the football”?  
 

If I’m Jason Bean, I’d remember those days and remind people that Seth makes the calls instead of fans for a reason.

Sorry this is the whole video from today.

 

Well thrown ball by Bean.  Shorter got out-muscled there.  Not a big deal because we’ve seen what Shorter can do!
 

Nice play by Gaddie.  We’ve had high expectations of him since he signed his LOI.  Hopefully he busts out this year.

Still think Bean is the man to beat right now.

It was a far thrown ball, but I don’t know about well thrown.  Receiver looked more like he was about to receive a punt than being hit in stride.  Definitely under thrown..

Agreed. I thought it was a pretty poor throw. Shorter had a step on Gaddie and Bean made him turn back to get it. Not a great recipe for success, even for a guy with Shorter's size.

Nice play by Gaddie. Excited to see what he can do this season. 

That was a difficult call for me on that play considering those are my two adopted players in Gaddie and Shorter.  Those two are going to do big things this year.

"Poor throw"?   No, a "poor throw" would not be placed where a receiver can make a play.
Gaddie didn't even have his head turned around from what I can see.  The throw was fine.
Shorter had the chance to catch it, went up first, and lost his battle as Gaddie read his receiver's eyes/hands, and made the play.   Gaddie should be praised instead of chiding Bean.
If you expect any QB to hit his receivers in stride every time, I have bad news for you.

If you expect our WR's to catch every jump ball against good DB's, I have bad news for you. 

We can agree to disagree on that one.

Either way, I'm still not convinced Bean is going to give us the best chance to win, even if he can run a 4.3. I'd love to be proven wrong on that one though. I just want to win.

      Judge orders Florida State, ACC to mediation to settle suit

      If you actually think that Louisville, NC State, VT, PITT, and GT are going to willingly commit financial seppuku to join an inferior Big 12 then there is no reasoning with you. The ACC isn't going anywhere b/c (thankfully) the commissioner isn't a total idiot. Sorry champ but them's the breaks.

      Judge orders Florida State, ACC to mediation to settle suit

      Finally. Someone here gets it. The FSU/Clemson lawsuits are hilariously bad as proven out by a sitting judge in Tallahassee telling FSU to mediate with the ACC, in large part due to the fact that the grounds for the suit are beyond frivolous. FSU willingly entered into an agreement with the ACC/ESPN in 2014. They again, re-signed the deal with an extension through 2036 in 2017. Its tough to argue in contract law that you signed a deal twice and now you are suing b/c you don't like the outcome. its the equivalent of selling your house in 2008 during the financial crisis and then wanting to get all the accretive value increase in the subsequent years after selling. Its beyond stupid.

      I know you're in denial that any ACC school wouldn't want to stay with Smu in the conference, but there are more $$ for them elsewhere. That's what it is all about today. You bought your way into the ACC. Schools will buy their way out of the ACC> From another article: ACC would lose schools to SEC, Big Ten, and Big 12 If/when FSU leaves, the Seminoles and Clemson would likely be SEC-bound. UNC and UVA, which both have AAU accreditation, would join the Big Ten as basketball and academic fits. The Big 12 would likely try to poach Louisville, NC State, VA Tech, Pitt, and/or GA Tech.

      G5s Finally Getting Together......Talking About Their Future

      For now….. But why would the P2 want to share the playoff with the non P2? they don’t have to. There’s nothing in it for them. Who do they want in, an 8-4 big brand like Penn St or an 11-1 non brand like SMU.

      The ACC contract appears to be iron clad. It's difficult to find a sympathetic judge when your case is basically that the contract you agreed to years ago was unfair. It appears to me that the ACC is here to stay until their present agreement runs out. I just don't think you add 3 programs if you plan to dissolve the conference as soon as possible but that's just me. In addition, besides being a UNT fan I enjoy college sports, and having the opportunity to see ACC teams play in Dallas and Big 12 in Ft. Worth works for me.
