I won’t lie, I was skeptical about Skylar returning for the Oklahoma game. Mobility is a huge part of his game. My thought was that if he isn’t mobile, he’s not going to be the Skylar Thompson we know. I’m happy to report that while he wasn’t the Skylar Thompson we’ve come to know over the last decade, he’s still pretty dang good, even if he only has one leg.
Skylar’s mastery of the mundane separates him from the pack, and it’s why I think he’ll have a shot at making a team at the next level. He does the little things well, and that’s important for a quarterback.
