What the Wisconsin Badgers and Big Ten Conference Rivals See in the Western Conference
For the Wisconsin football staff and many other programs, West could become a solemn dual-threat quarterback of the future. Meanwhile, last seasonWest has shown excellent field awareness, often eluding potential sacks and making correct deep throws. The quarterback not only reads the field well, but also has a great feel for incoming pressure, showing his mature intelligence in his class.
West also has impressive arm strength, regularly delivering 40-plus yard bombs down the field to his receivers with solid accuracy. Developing accuracy on long balls seems to be West’s goal, and it will certainly come with time as the quarterback continues to play. Perhaps West’s best attribute is his quick, uncomplicated throwing motion, which makes all of his throws look like he throws with ease.
