Not disagreeing with what you say but, if he can play, he can play. Otherwise why all the hype back in the spring and summer. Made him sound like Mullin's twin.
Very accurate observation. Need to get back to more "Oklahoma drills" in practice, pulling players off the field and sitting them on the bench when their tackling is pathetic. Many of these players, particularly in the secondary, play like they are afraid of contact. Too many that look like...
Up to the coaches to improve defense. Every practice should be an "Oklahoma Marathon". And if your attempt at a tackle is as chicken---- as we see in the game, then the team runs sprints, while the offending player sits in a lawn chair. Hard tackling is vital to the game.
I think some of the DB's are afraid of the contact. They like to try and wrestle the ball carrier to the ground. Basically they are afraid (timid) of smashing into ball carriers. Might hurt.
A reminder of everything UConn isn't in FBS football.. A terrible performance: offense, defense, special teams and coaching. A winnable game that they gave away. Disgraceful tackling attempts, still trying to run Edward's outside (a colossal failure all season) instead of between tackles, still...
WHAT!?!? Appreciate your response, I do, but WTF, "One of the best 10th or 11th dudes in the country. Trinity or Wesylan probably have a couple of dudes who could perform at that level. A look back at some of the write ups on Furphy during spring and summer told us different. In fact, take...
The ACC had it right, and almost in their grasp, with Syracuse and UConn. The Boston market and BC, was(and is) a mirage. It looks like something big, but isn't - with respect to college athletics that are not hockey. Never was. On the other hand, UConn and SU were (and are) big. The Catholics...
Yes, to '06 in Bloomington. Yes, to a pick 6 by Lansanah. And, yes, to a boring, defensive struggle (a lone rushing offensive TD) for a second W over Hoosiers. Certainly, not the offensive fireworks we have today with Air UConn.
Tyler could run it quite effectively, but passing . . . not so much. In those days it was all run, run, run. And hope for defensive TD or a special team TD.
