Leach's system definitely values defnitely accuracy and intellect more than arm strength.
Harrell holds the NCAA record for career 300-yard games (32) and 400-yard games (20), is the only player in NCAA history to pass for 5,000 or more yards in two seasons, finished 4th in the Heisman Trophy balloting in 2008, and won the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award as a senior. He had almost 16,000 passing yards at Texas Tech, a completion percentage of 69.8%, and 134 TDs.
So, I think he can throw the football.

As for Harrell, Mangini said the 6-foot-2, 223-pounder made a good first impression.
