We don’t win tonight without Vaki on offense period. Ritchie is better next man up than Glover. But with Lander out, the defense has already lost one of its top players. Tough call, but I don’t think that playing him both ways to this extent is sustainable.

Pretty sure Barnes led with the crown of his helmet. Targeting on Barnes, he hammered that kid.

You lost me at Hayden Fury.

All day long I want him back. This team with one more year experience and full health would destroy fools.

Pretty sure Covey’s play was a jet sweep or single reverse with pass option. He threw once and ran it the second time when his receiver was covered. It worked both times, but not the same play.

Munir McClain has played in 2 games this season, his stat line: 4 targets, 4 receptions 131 yds or 33 yds per catch. He’s a playmaker.

Other coordinators would design and call plays his way. But Whit and Ludwig value defense, ball and clock control.

That can’t be rushing offense. It’s rushing defense. When you’re offense is ranked bottom 10 it’s impossible that the rushing component could be top 10.

Yeah, JJ’s Baylor performance against stacked boxes and while injured shows how impactful he is. Big missing piece.

It really doesn’t matter whether a guy is getting 1 or 2 yards ramming into the wall. It’s producing 7 points per game. Randle is a playmaker who ran well between the tackles in HS. He’s a one cut and go style runner. I’m hoping these are more indications that we’re going to use our speed and athleticism and go around the wall once in awhile.

What I think was telling with Glover was the run he had against OSU where he got to the next level, which hasn’t been easy for him, and instead of running to the next seam/daylight, he danced. Good guy, team guy, hope he can make the step up.

It’s really too bad. We’ve been pulling for Chris Curry evidenced by the ovation he got in the Weber St game. There are a lot of careers cut short in this game. I love the game, but it’s violence and carnage.

May need to go to the freshmen. John Randle would give us some playmaking that we don’t have in the backfield right now, but playcal…[Read more]

Love the NIL deal. It was innovative, got national attention and credit and the players loved it. There will be copycats, but should undoubtedly help retention and recruiting. I’m done talking about the rest. Hope we can find a spark offensively, players and/or scheme, to get us some dubs.

Hey Robo, what I meant to say is 2 P12 championships were unprecedented for us.

I won’t argue against Alex Smith who was 2 for 2 in G5 championships and undefeated Fiesta Bowl season. He helped elevate the program under those circumstances. Cam similarly helped elevate the program under different P5 circumstances. What both did was unprecedented. So, I won’t argue against Alex Smith, but it is at least debatable with my pre…[Read more]

As with any leader at the top, Coach Whit in this case, you are responsible for knowing and then planning and executing accordingly.

If Whit didn’t know, he should have known. He is at least negligent and that is almost as damning as the other outcome. The other outcome is he did know, he mistakingly hoped for an early return while m…[Read more]
