  1. Wingo's biggest issue is learning the WR positions better in Sark's offense. He also needs to refine his route running. Add a bit more weight, then start using it effectively to maximize his physical gifts.
  2. I'm always terrified when I imagine people like this in positions of consequence
  3. Sam can definitely throw the ball, he just didn’t have the strongest arm. Ball placement was also an issue at times.
  4. Yea if we had options, it would be great to move on from Bond. But if he comes back without it breaking the bank, we could really use his speed element and he would hopefully know the offense better next year.
  5. On Judkins' first TD run of the game, Bill Norton has penetration, but is held and Judkins strolls in right next to where the hold is happening. No call. We held a few times in pass pro with no call as well, but OSU definitely leaned into it. So much so that they actually got called for a couple. I called it before the game though, they've been doing it all through the playoffs and the refs haven't been calling it on anyone.
  6. Love Banks, but he isn't a generational LT. He's really good in pass pro due to his IQ, athleticism, and above average length, but not overly dominant as a blocker.
  7. Quinn did enough as a starter to help us get back into the national spotlight. He's not a guy you can rely on to win a game against any decent opponent. Thankful for his contributions, and I wish him the best going forward.
  8. He's gone, but Bond could really benefit from another year in college. It probably won't make him a better practice player though. Oh well, on to bigger and better things hopefully.
  9. If you see anything wrong with what Sark had to say about that playcall there, I dunno what to tell you. Not being to displace the man in front of you makes it extremely difficult to run goal line offense. He believed he could get them out leveraged, and it went far worse than expected with the loss of yardage. It would have been a great call if it worked, but it didn't. The OL was not good enough for us to win today, that's really what football comes down to more often than not.
  10. Arch and a healthy IZ game is going to make this offense look unbeatable at times next year. The final score is not indicative of how close this game was despite all the adversity. Hell of a game by Sark to have a chance to get it done late, not great play calls at the 1, but our OL is not good at short yardage at all and OSU is elite at stopping it.
  11. The IOL is developing, but they aren't there yet. Hayden Conner's best trait is that he knows who to block. Neto can drive block, but he misses way too often to be relied on, hence the portal interest. The most important aspect of an OL is working together to handle the threats. They do that for the most part, just not dominantly. Things will take a step back in some regard next year, but I expect more physical dominance as the years go by.
  12. We weren't getting in up the middle. MAYBE off tackle, but Sark had no faith in his OL there. I didn't like the toss play, but who can you fucking rely on to block? Tough sequence there. I probably stick with throwing and give Quinn the green light to run.
  13. Hey man, I apologize for the remark I made. Hook'em
  14. Because youre probably a lot less valuable to your company than he is. He gambled and lost, shit happens. Our guys should have been able to execute well enough to keep him out of the end zone. He's kept a white hot Ohio State offense to 14 pts in the first half and Jeremiah Smith to...1 catch for 3 yards. Pretty good stuff.
  15. It's an added variable in a game that they don't need any added distractions. I don't fault Sark for it if he made that call

    Bert!

    Jeff Crosby is your guy. He’s the de facto specialist coach.

    Bert!

    You think a kicker needs a dedicated coach on staff? They usually have a GA or something similar working with the off to the side charting stats and maybe helping them work through the process if necessary. Kickers are part of the team, but they generally do their own thing. Unless he’s hurt, Bert’s issues are mental. He didn’t just forget how to kick after all this time.
  18. I like my women a bit ruder than that, but I’ve certainly banged worse and possibly will again. Carson Beck in Miami makes a ton of sense. Think of all the IG girls he’ll have easier access to as well!
  19. So bad that it calls into question why he’s even on scholarship/got recruited.
  20. Literally everyone has an answer to a zone defense, but you gotta diagnose it quick enough for the timing to be right and to beat the pass rush. Leavitt bought time with his legs over and over, If we get Howard moving like that, I like our chances
  21. Sark isn’t going anywhere. The microscope of the NFL is greater than the one at Texas. The personalities are bigger and your leverage is much smaller. Consider having a guy like Johntay Cook on your team, but you can’t just let him go bc he’s detrimental to your team’s culture. Worse, the team has invested heavy resources into getting him, so you have to make it work and favor playing him over the more effective UDFA. But mostly, he’s very unlikely to leave before Arch and maybe his son move on. also unlikely to leave before winning a national championship.
  22. NFL-video.com or whatever has all of the broadcast version of the playoff games in full.
  23. We tried to get him on campus pretty hard but he never made it. Committed to A&M over the summer. He’s got great tools, and the staff really liked him at the beginning of the cycle iirc, but we didn’t circle back. It’s just one rep though. His 100m time says he probably has more speed than he showed in that clip.
  24. Time of possession was the main defense for our offense. That and poor run blocking for much of that game. Sark likely wasn’t calling plays aggressively to limit opportunities for them to create a big play on defense, which is something they’d feasted on all year.
  25. Pretty sure offensive holding won’t exist in this game. We need to lean into that in this game.
