  1. Lol wut. He’s a true freshman and their OLis god awful. Getting him killed behind a terrible OL doesn’t help get Weigman ready. He’s better off redshirting.
  2. Thompson was rated high because he's extremely fast, but he was super raw in HS and needs a lot of development. He's also undersized, so I'd bet he's a terrible blocker right now. He likely needs more time.
  3. The difference is soft coverage is a problem when the defense executes the coverage correctly, but it still gives up a first because the coverage had them playing too far off. Blown coverage is when the players on the defense don't execute the call correctly. It's a meaningful difference when we're talking about it in the thread about our DC and whether his calls are to blame for the failure or it's another issue. You're wrong about our defense on Saturday. The biggest problem was our back 7 not executing. When guys are getting open deep down the field like they were on Saturday, calling a soft coverage is not usually to blame.
  4. Ehhh. Conner has been really bad too. He's actually even lower graded than Hutson by PFF, and Hutson seems like he's improving at a better rate.
  5. There's a difference between blown coverage and soft coverage. Most of this board sees a WR open and immediately calls it soft coverage. Soft coverage is generally referred to when teams are playing way off the receivers and drop at the snap. We do this some, where we line up at the first down marker and then the DBs still bail, giving up an easy first, but most of the conversions this week were deeper in the secondary, which would be blown coverages/assignments.
  6. It's almost like this is college football and teams' performances vary greatly week to week. You'll have trouble finding any defense in CFB that plays well every week. UGA might be the only exception and that's because they always have a massive talent advantage. FIFY.
  7. The problem with your post is you assume other guys aren’t playing because they’re worse than the guys who are, but we played guys like Brockermeyer, all last year and left better guys on the bench, like Ford.
  8. Ash wasn’t good, you dumb motherfucker.
  9. This is also bullshit. We were planning to start Conner and Majors. There were guys in the portal who could start over them.
  10. Go look up Cole Hutson’s grades this year and then report back on whether we could’ve used a transfer, smart guy.
  11. It has a range of penalties from very minor ones to deducting points, so basically whatever the FIA feels like.
  12. People saying the offense shit the bed or Quinn had bad day are the same ones who said ISU’s defense isn’t that good and we should win in a blowout earlier this week. This is what ISU’s defense does to teams, and Sark has never been able to figure out this defense. It shouldn’t be surprising Quinn struggled. What should be surprising is how good our defense made Dekkers look. This will be by far his best game of the season. PK did an absolutely terrible job today, and we were lucky to get a win in spite of it.
  13. Oh and the dumbasses who were expecting a shutout. Those guys too.
  14. Where are all those dumbasses who were saying all week that the ISU defense isn’t good and it’s only because they hadn’t played any good teams?
  15. You just looked at a chart that predicts our final W/L record as 8.7-3.3, and your interpretation of it is that we win out? Well, ok then.
  16. It’s not a concern when you seek upperclassmen to replace part of losing your top 3 DTs. It would be dumb of them not to.
  17. Cmon man. You should be better than this. He was the OC under Heupel and Kiffin. Those weren’t his offenses.
  18. It seems like more of a desperation post trying to stop their board from spiraling.
  19. I’m not sure what ISU football you have watched, but there is nothing lethal about their offense. They don’t have the quarterback or WRs to execute long drives repeatedly.
  20. Because he hired Larry Fedora as his OC the first year. Rhule left him almost all the talent he won with last year. Now they’re gone and Aranda sucks again.
  21. I know a guy whose had a 13 win season and won 2 NY 6 bowls in the past 7 years that would be a perfect fit for your school.
  22. I can’t see OU hanging on to him, and I’d rather he go to ND than aggy, so this seems like a positive development.
  23. yep. Looks about right. Quinn’s definitely been making a good amount of throws that could be picked, which is fine. He’ll improve on that over time, and you take the good with the bad. Even this early, the good vastly outweighs the bad. You said arm talent, not just arm strength. Quinn has shown ridiculous arm talent already that far surpasses Card and almost every other QB in college. You had a horrible take. Might as well stop while you’re way behind.
