Were you able to throw as hard as you wanted to or did you have to ease your way into it?

Like most surgeries, it has to go through the natural healing process, with inflammation and soreness, and building back range of motion and strength. Probably be touch and go to see if he has his strength back by August.
That's what worries me. In june, he might still be easing into it and then there is just a couple of months until the season opener
They were discussing Beck on on ESPN radio; they said Miami boosters will be paying him $4M for his "name, image and likeness"
I'm very athletic. At 42 I tore my labrum on my throwing arm. Never quite the same again. Took 8 years to sort of through like I used to do. Obviously he is young.
I'm more concerned about his stats against Iowa to be frank.
The "never quite the same again" is concerning....
curious what you mean by "his stats against Iowa"
Here's how this plays out:
Gronowski starts first game but appears either "rusty" or simply "off." Definitely not the SDSU version.
Super fans preach the need for patience b/c "he didn't have spring" and/or "He's still learning Lester's system."
6-7 games in when we have lost a game or two and have nothing of significance to play for, the interest level in playing Hank Brown or others finally kicks in. Too late.
Another year for us as Iowa Fans. Maybe we can portal an injured QB in '26 to make it three in a row!? A trifecta?? That'd be an accomplishment.
Sought-after star quarterback from Chicago suburb finds next home at Iowa
Once upon a time, Mark Gronowski was a lightly recruited quarterback at Neuqua Valley High School in Naperville.

I hope he starts game 1.......but will he be 100%?
Will he have his arm strength and accuracy back?
Silly question since nobody can answer that with any degree of certainty and anyone who says they can is most certainly full of shit.
