  1. Where are you pulling these stats from? My recollection from the Okla St game is that most of those slants and glance over the middle routes that Sanders got against us were against zone coverages where our LBs didnt get enough depth (surprise). That quarters coverage we run is still a zone and we dont match up particular well at all as someone up above alluded to.
  2. This is off topic, but I don't remember a school ever being banned from the playoffs before. I'm not even sure the late 80s Carter football teams got banned from the playoffs. And this ruling seems especially egregious when you consider that the player who's residency was in question was playing for his stepfather. Like how on earth are you not allowed to claim residency in the same house that your mother lives in? I'm sure there's more to the story but considering all the football teams in this state that clearly "recruit", Duncanville getting this severe a punishment seems fucking ridiculous.
  3. And we allow a quick passing game because of the soft coverage we play. More man coverage reduces the opportunity for opposing WRs to get open early, thus giving our pass rush (which gets a lot of pressures) more opportunities to turn those pressures into sacks.
  4. Go look at the stats. We put much more pressure on QBs than Georgia. Yesterday was the first game Georgia really harassed a QB all season. A lot of those scrambles were against zone coverage.
  5. Yeah it's impossible to play man against a running qB and spy him at the same time. It's literally never been done before. Give me a break. I'm obviously not calling for man 100% of the time, but mixing it in more that 10% would be worthwhile, especially against QBs who struggle with accuracy. And I mentioned 3 different QBs in my initial post. I know he's black but Donovan Smith is not a running QB, at least not in the elusive sense. And Sanders couldn't get the ball more than 20 yards down field against us with his detached shoulder yet we sat back in zone allowing inside releases snap after snap.
  6. We executed and Martinez made some horrible throws against man. That wheel route along the right sideline that fell at the receivers back heel comes to mind. He also missed on that slant against Jamison in the end zone.
  7. I remarked on that consideration in my very first sentence.
  8. I understand the worry against running threats like Martinez and Sanders, but damn can't we spy them and play man at least half the time? I doubt they reach even 20 points had we mixed in more man tonight. Martinez, Sanders, & Donovan Smith are all QBs who struggle with accuracy yet we sat back in soft coverage in all 3 games allowing them to get into rhythm by repeatedly throwing it to wide open receivers who were standing still. Brock Huard all but said that Kwiatkowski admitted that our guys don't know how to play zone. Addionally, Sark said ahead of the season that he'd like to see our guys play tighter coverage. With all this, why does Kwiatkowski keep running them out there in zone packages. Someone who knows more about football than me please explain to me why we're so stubborn about this shit. Is he so impressed with his scheme that he force feed something on to them that he admits they do poorly. Today I watched LSU and Georgia play a simple ass schemes and man up the guys on the outside against uber tier QBs, yet we're too scared to play tight man against QBs who struggle to hit moving targets. It just doesn't make sense.
  9. You added a bit more color on the national high school volleyball scene than simple rankings in that post.
  10. SLX is a full service college sports fan. I wouldn't even begin to know where to go to get volleyball recruiting.
  11. I mean they turned "woke", which just means aware of injustice, into a pejorative. It's a tried and true tactic of right wing propaganda. Turn any and everything good into a pejorative. Woke, social justice, shit back in the 60s they turned the term "civil rights" into a pejorative. I listened to this podcast the other day on reverse freedom rides and the way they turned the term on its head was something familiar and it struck me that they've been doing this forever.
  12. It's literally what happens in every final shot situation over the last 3 years. Ever since he hit it against the Clippers he can't help himself.
  13. This shit where every late game shot by Doncic devolves into a 30 foot stepback three is for the fucking birds man,
  14. Another good thing about having the Gonzaga game at Moody this year is if I remember correctly the covid season Gonzaga game was supposed to take place during December at a time when students wouldn't even be on campus. Additionally if you remember the Villanova game that year took place in late December or early January that year as well. This year's Gonzaga game is smack dab at a time when students will be on campus and we can get the full benefit of a home court advantage. That's another not so incidental aspect of Beard that I love. He's a full service college basketball coach who takes into consideration the marketing aspects as well.
  15. I know the original Gonzaga game at home was canceled during the covid season. With Moody opening up this season it actually works out much better to have that game here this year. The Creighton and Tennessee games are just part of Big East and SEC conference challenges with the Big 12. The Illinois game is really the only high profile game that Beard had a true hand in. The biggest difference in terms of scheduling philosophies between Shaka and even Barnes compared to Beard is what they do with the rest of the schedule. Beard schedules an inordinate amount of games (in terms of what we're used to) against teams in the 220to 300+ range of NCAA D1 teams whereas Barnes and Shaka typically scheduled more of the middle tier teams in the 100 to 200 range ie your SFAs and UTAs.
  16. The Drake Maye kid out at North Carolina will be involved in the conversation as well.
  17. Sack & a forced fumble on deck.
  18. Bye bye Dalton!!
  19. Thank you. I was waiting for someone to point this out. Don't know who got washed out in the first one but it was definitely Lewis on the 2nd one. For some reason the dumbass cheated to the defensive right side for thinking Brown was going to the offensive left and of course they ran the exact same play to their right.
  20. TC was a lowly, random intern when Corby created that photo of him. He wasn't even on air at the time.
