“They had chances wide open drops and poor play is all coaching.”
LOL… Funny thing about players is that they are the ones playing the game (see: catching the football/not dropping the football). To say that those things are all coaching is comically inaccurate.
I agree that coaching is part of the problem in those situations, but to say that…[Read more]

we have the same record as stanford, and we wooped them at their place… yet they are ranked and we aren’t. In other words, those rankings mean absolutely nothing

and suddenly Troy Taylor isn’t a sh**ty offensive coordinator.
I’ve been saying it for a long time, he isn’t the problem. Receivers catch the ball, Huntley plays with confidence… The plays Taylor has called all year suddenly look really really good.
I don’t doubt his calls have improved some, but even that can be attributed to players…[Read more]

got called for targeting.
one of the classiest things I have seen on a football field. Gets called for a bogus targeting penalty, goes over and says sorry to mariner, checks to make sure he is good.
chinngiskhaan started the topic This team, Huntley in particular showed me what I needed to see in the Football forum. 1 week, 5 days ago
they showed that they care about winning football games. For the first time all year, this team got out of their own way.
also: how are dbs supposed to defend Stanford receivers when all they do is run down the field and double stiff arm the guy guarding them before posting up. How is that not offensive PI all game long?

haha
a hobbled Blackmon is still faster and better than any receiver on BYU’s team. Every DB on our team is more talented and a better matchup than any receiver on BYU.

I’ve heard many Ute fans wishing longingly that Leach was our head coach since we lost to WSU yet again.
Just putting it out there that this change would be AT BEST a wash for the program. Yeah, his offenses put up a ton of yards, but the results his teams produce are, even in the most positive light, no better than Whitt’s results.

As well as some other thoughts I had watching the game.
1. This loss is not on Huntley. He wasn’t great, he was just pretty good. He made the throws to keep the drive alive at the end (minus that last one that was a long shot anyways). He made better decisions when running the ball, with a few exceptions, and he was more decisive when running and…[Read more]

I never knew that he holds a combine record for fastest 10 yard split. That explains a whole heckuva lot regarding his uncanny ability to close on the ball.
The breakdown of his stats at Utah was also eye popping.

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic ASU’s amazeballs offense didn’t do much better than we did against UW in the forum Football 3 weeks, 5 days ago
I’m not arguing that our offense doesn’t stink… but there is a possibility that it isn’t nearly as bad as it seems. Run the ball a little more, catch a few more of those dropped balls, don’t throw stupid picks in scoring position… That game is a whole hell of a lot closer and the offense looks much less inept.
This season is not over. The…[Read more]

Players may only be there for 4 years, but they often have an impact beyond those four years. There are plenty of dudes in the NFL, or that have been in the NFL that have really had an impact on the team for years after they leave. Many of our guys come back and contribute to the team.

our offensive line is every bit as porous as AZ’s defense. It’s just ridiculous. I mean, we played against a really really great player in #15, but man, they stink.
Huntley had a pretty good game actually. He just needs to learn to get rid of the ball sooner, and set his feet. However, if he isn’t being protected by his offensive line, he…[Read more]
chinngiskhaan started the topic Blair in the Football forum. 1 month, 2 weeks ago
I have to revise my earlier opinions on Blair. He has cleaned up all of his issues from last year. He is better in pass protection than he was last year, and he still hits like a truck, while doing it legally this time around.
what an awesome player. He and Hansen on the field at the same time is going to be not fun for opposing teams.
