Arch Manning: Doing his best JAG impression to fool scouts


Recommended Posts

Posted
Ash didn't need defenders. He was very good when healthy. He needed to not get concussions. 

The Ash 2012 campaign was very solid and nearly as good as McCoy in 2009. It’s just in 2012, our defense and special teams were horrendous.

GG in 2011 was booed off the field and had to be coached up at SMU by whats his name.

any decent punter should be good enough, and the team should be practiced enough to kick a high punt that someone (us or them) fields inside the fifteen, hopefully at the ten or five yard line. No return.

(And that close in, the punter should be able to angle it OOB.) They may fair catch a high punt at their fifteen, but more likely the ten, and if the coverage team is good enough, you get 'em back at the five or the two once or twice per game. That's money in the bank for our D.

Aussie Rules, or footy, puts a huge premium on accurate punting, both distance and direction. Dickson was - and is - masterful at those. In footy, the ball is moved best by punting to your own team. A ball caught before it hits the ground is the target, and Dickson regularly put the ball inside the ten yard line where the return man would let it go, hoping for a touchback, but a Longhorn would be there to down it.

PM Banks and Bouwmeester.

I have a suspicion that his uncles are very busy with their own stuff and don’t watch him play a lot or coach him up much at all. So we don’t in fact have a QB with an inside mental edge or savant mentors, just another QB with great athletic genes. Doesn’t mean we can’t win a lot with him.

That is the sense I get when I hear Peyton get asked questions about Arch. Its more of a "see you at Christmas" kind of relationship than a grooming to be the next great QB.

Yeah, pretty clear watching these videos where the strange mechanics are coming from. I don't know enough to know if this is good training or bad. But at the very least, it appears to have been something akin to trying rework a swing right before the start of the season. 

In golf, the only thing worse than a locker-room lesson is a tee-box lesson. Is that what's going on here?

Ash was such a huge what if in that time period. He had flashes of being really good, but ultimately was Glass

It was in reference to Arch using his legs on improvised scrambles and that can get you outside of the scheme. It gave me the impression that Sark is a stickler to scheme. Just my opinion, but right now the offense just needs success anyway they can find it. They look broken right now. IMO restoring confidence is paramount at this time. Little success could get them to loosen up and perhaps not look like they are attending a wake. Scheme is useless if your players have 0 belief. 

Sark not wanting QBs to run is just so fucking stupid. Watch nfl, it’s a necessity

To me that was an indictment on Greg and Mack.

Mack doing a complete offensive change because of 1 game probably tanked Gilbert

3rd and Longhorn had him on if anyone hasn't seen. Just misdiagnosed and it was just migraines. if it doesn't start at 40:00. that's where he starts discussing it. 
Glass maybe, Tempered Glass would be better
