Everything I hear is that he is a terrible teammate. I am 99% sure he is gone.

I’m on the fence.

And over his 10 seasons as a OC/QB coach, Beck’s quarterbacks have averaged 3,300 passing yards and 509 rushing yards, for an average of 3,809 yards of total offense per season. I’d love to see Isaac in this style of offense.

Anyone care? Comments here. I won’t be able to watch it. I’ll be skiing. 🙂

I may be in the minority on this board. But, I don’t want to give up on Isaac yet. I know that the offense was terrible this season and Wilson did not look good.
BUT – I still think he has talent and after the experience he gained this season, I believe he will be a better QB. Most importantly, the blame for the terrible offense is not all on…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Reason in the forum Football 6 months ago
I think this is a fair question. My answer today is that I don’t know. There are too many unknowns, i.e., who leaves the team for the portal, who we get from the portal, who gets healthy, who develops from the current team, etc.
I certainly hope we improve and improve a lot. But, the season just ended. Nothing has yet happened that has me…[Read more]

to your second #2: A lot of those bad bounces were self inflicted which doesn’t always revert to the mean. Just dropped interceptions alone cost the TCU and parochial school games. Even after the “hold heard round the world”, Calhoun dropped a pick 6 that would have iced the game. That’s execution not luck.

2008 National Champ replied to the topic Offensive Staff Turnover? in the forum Football 6 months ago
My guess is after this weekend is when we would start seeing movement among position coaches if it’s going to happen. Early signing is done but you still need position coaches recruiting the portal. If you’re going to make a change and your target is on a bowl team now is the time to go get them. If they are on a playoff team, you probably have…[Read more]

2008 National Champ replied to the topic Isaac Wilson transfer portal rumor in the forum Football 6 months ago
The game of college football doesn’t give extra credit and there’s no handicap system. It doesn’t matter whether you are an 18 year old freshman or a 25 year old 7th year senior, when you step on the field you have to produce. It’s the ultimate Darwinian process and Wilson didn’t pass the test. Any blame or credit Wilson got was earned by his…[Read more]

2008 National Champ replied to the topic Bouwmeester in portal :-/ in the forum Football 6 months ago
It’s not an either/or world any more. You’ve got to figure out a way to pay both and Whitt said during the season that he already had his spreadsheets and budgets set. Now we’ll see if Blechen / whitt are as good at Moneyball as Billy Bean was.

Here are 3:
#1 – I’d be shocked if we don’t get better QB play next season. Even if it’s a combo of Rose/Wilson, I’ll expect better results than what we saw this year.
#2 – Fewer injury issues. I don’t expect our 2 most important players (Rising and Kuithe this year) to be out for much of the season due to injuries next year.
#2 – More…[Read more]

2008 National Champ replied to the topic Reason in the forum Football 6 months ago
The only direction this team can go after this disastrous year is up.
That’s not necessarily true. I agree that I don’t think it will get worse but there is still the possibility that the end result is the same as 2024 but with different players.
A lot of what people were banking on for 2024 success was based on the relatively easy schedule.…[Read more]

CornellUte started the topic Offensive Staff Turnover? in the forum Football 6 months ago
Sorry if this has already been discussed, but with the hiring of Jason Beck as OC, what does that mean for the likes of Harding, Q, Fred, Whitted? I’d assume that Beck would want to bring in his own people, and it’d be a bad indicator of Whitt’s loosening his grip on the offense if Beck was forced to retain certain position coaches on the…[Read more]

EagleMountainUte replied to the topic Reason in the forum Football 6 months ago
Statistically the offense was an outlier. It will go back up. I don’t think the coaching improved at all in the BIG12. The defenses top to bottom were pretty unimpressive.

Arnold is surrounded by loads of talent and still wasn’t enough. Dampier is at New Mexico. Dampier himself carried that team. Oklahoma carried Arnold.

Source of rumor???
Quick internet search gives me this tidbit – sounds like the SEC is his first school is his first choice.
“According to On3’s Pete Nakos, Arnold is looking to make a splash to advance his college football career. His list is relatively small. All three teams reside in the SEC, but the most eye-popping would be playing for…[Read more]
