  1. The Kicking Game

    What is this "kicking game" of which you speak? Have you seen it recently? If so, where?
  2. Starting QB speculation

    They were wrong then. Not so sure today.
  3. Starting QB speculation

    FIFY. That's the difference and if we can avoid injury tsunamis then it will pay dividends as the year goes on.
  4. Starting QB speculation

    The only thing I have to say about this is that we only have one RB - Mason - who is harder to bring down then Tobias. I'm Old School on this; I'll take a guy who is hard to tackle over a speed back any day of the week. Especially if he is cute in the bargain. But, like I said, this isn't...
  5. Starting QB speculation

    And we could obviously look better this year if Tobias was at RB. Like: He'd do a lot better for us there then at DB. We have people who are faster, but nobody cuter. But this will never happen, of course.
  6. 2020 Team Talent Composite

    I think the basis for the rankings is faulty. I've long said here that the continuous parsing of differences of ratings is there to draw clicks from fans, not to evaluate players. None of the services have the capacity to do more then pick the 5 stars and some of the 4 stars. They stick out like...
  7. Is Collins nasty enough to be a HC ?

    Normally, I try to avoid comparisons too, but this thread literally asked for it. I don't really think Collins isn't "nasty enough" to be a head coach at all. He's easy tough enough for the job or he wouldn't have been hired. I'm more disappointed by the way the team looks so poorly coached in...
  8. Is Collins nasty enough to be a HC ?

    You mean like this? I always felt for Chris Griffin when I saw this. Or, maybe, this? Or this? Yeah, I miss that myself. It didn't always work in Paul's favor, but I bet his players didn't like coming to the sideline when they screwed up. But maybe that style doesn't work with modern...
  9. #GTvsCUSE Postgame

    Oh, I don't know. We might beat Duke.
  10. #GTvsCUSE Postgame

    FIFY. We need to play the guy who is averaging 8 YPC and runs hard. Until we get Mason back, that is.
  11. #GTvsCUSE Postgame

    FIFY. This is the problem.
  12. #GTvsCUSE Postgame

    Two of those INTs were tips. I don't blame Sims for those, except he should never the thrown the second one. He simply hasn't learned to eat a loss yet. And, again, we looked poorly coached. What is it with all the penalties and the continuing special teams problems (except for Pressley, of...
  13. Coach Coleman's got his Mind Rite

    I'm still on the fence about Coleman. I get that he has creds with the kids and that he can give advice during games. But we are averaging giving up an average of 484 yards a game on D. That is simply too much. If we improve and the Des are the reason, I'll feel better about him. He was always...
  14. Starting QB speculation

    I think the real differences between the two boil down to two things. First, there's OL play. We had so many sequential injuries there that it was hard for the blocking to meld. This is especially the case for pass blocking. But enough of that. The second is that Graham was hurt most of the...
  15. Starting QB speculation

    And was he ever. If you want to know why we went after him look at his junior year stats; he missed about half of his senior year. As a junior, he threw for 1725, ran for 956, and accounted for 39 TDs. The main question is why any school anywhere would want him for anything else.
  16. Starting QB speculation

    I said it an earlier post; one good game doth not a season make. We don't know how Sims will turn out. If I had a nickel for every frosh QB who looks good for a game or two then flubs, I'd be waiting on the cornice at Nice wondering when my friend Johnny was going to show up for lunch. Same for...
  17. Starting QB speculation

    Well … there isn't much I can do if you don't, you know, read the post. And I quote: " If the difference isn't that great - probably isn't between Sims and Graham - he'd start Sims and hope he develops quickly." And, on Griffin, "(No coach in his right mind would sit Mason down.)" I didn't...
  18. Starting QB speculation

    I think our record and offensive production would be about the same or better if Graham had started. I think a poster above nailed it: Collins is going to start/play players he recruited. If the difference isn't that great - probably isn't between Sims and Graham - he'd start Sims and hope he...
  19. I love what Collins is doing.

    Yep. In most countries, Election Day is a day off. The easy solution is to move it to Saturday or Sunday; the present federal election dates are set by statute and can be changed. We haven't done that probably because a) our politicians don't actually want to increase participation rates, b) if...
  20. I love what Collins is doing.

    I didn't say there was anything wrong with this. I'm for it, 100%. I just don't think that Collins is doing anything new by hopping on the bandwagon. Oth, I'd be on his case if he hadn't. It's about time we all became aware of our problems and did something about them.
