Remember Steve Sax of the Dodgers?

He was a second baseman who one day couldn't make the throw to first base. He had to quit playing because of his errant throws. Once that gets into the psyche of a player, it's tough to regain the confidence. So with Arch, you have mechanics, the yips, and the inability to let it loose. We all see it. Sark has a conundrum.  His prized pupil can't complete a pass! What to do? The only solution is to sit him down and start the experienced transfer. He must before it gets worse.

I’m not as familiar with Sax, but happened with Chuck Knoblauch, too. Rooting for Arch to regain his confidence and overcome the struggles that he’s dealing with.

Remember Sax.  I thought he overcame his issues.  
 

what gives me some hope on arch is last year 1st start 16-29.  Next week 26-31 and 325 yards passing.  He needs to wipe the slate clean.  He’s not perfect.  Just relax and have fun.

I don't think he knows how right now.
He's too much in his head.
He's got the resources to make changes in his routine or whatever but it's not easy when a player loses confidence.

Maybe his grandfather did know best and wants Arch to stay for 3 years. It's going to get worse before it gets better, but this is what's best for Arch and this team in the long run. Lots of people were so quick to move on from Ewers last year, and now they are ready to move on from Arch.

What if we move on from Arch and it doesn't get better? Get another coach? We really have to take our medicine and hopefully support Arch enough so that he starts playing like he did last year.

Moving on indefinitely isn't gonna do anything good for this team.
I've said it already, Arch is by far the most talented in the room and the ceiling drops a lot for the offense if Arch can't figure it out mentally.
Sark's job is to find confidence in Arch, go back to the basics, and stack successful performances.

He has got to stop making Arch the centerpiece of the offense, full stop.
Whether that's heavy running game, lots of RPOs and screens I don't know, but he gets paid 10 million a year to figure out how to go back to 2024 MSU Arch.
