...and to the fact that the offensive line sucked then and continues to SUCK now. Tom Brady wouldn't fear well behind a bunch of behemoths who continue to trip over themselves at the line of scrimmage. The problem is not the QB.....or the RBs....or the TEs....or the WRs. It has been (and will continue to be) the offensive line. Cochran was successful because his strengths were reading defenses and getting rid of the ball quickly. He was in a system similar to what he ran in high school. He wasn't a threat to run, so he got the ball into the hands of guys who were, quickly. Unfortunately, the offensive line play also forced him to retire from the game. Maybe CC saw the writing on the wall that day. The offensive line SUCKS....period!!!

You and I have both been pointing this out for a long time. It has been our #1 foundational problem since PP/GDL. Still you wouldn't consider Indiana or Fordham powerhouse OL's so there's something more to it.

What are you talking about? Lagow played large school (6A) Texas high school football in the Dallas suburbs. It doesn't get any bigger or better than that. His graduating class had 1,400 students and they play in front of 15,000 people.

7 man football? I don't get it.

After JuCo he went to Oklahoma St. Sometimes sarcasm doesn't work well on the internet. In all sincerity, thanks for the genuine response. Not everyone is as cynical as me. It's nice to see.

Sorry if I misinterpreted your post. I read it literally, something that often doesn't work here.

The TEs and RBs are not very good blockers too. The best RB blocker we had was Josh Marriner and he left.

I was being sarcastic. But I do believe we had a qb who played 7 0n 7 and was him. Props to Lagow and it's our loss.

The summer before his senior year in HS he was at a passing camp (I believe held at UT) where most top Texas HS QB's attended. In seven on seven competition he finished with the best passing numbers. I believe that is what you are thinking of.
 
So every team besides UConn has a great O-line, you really think the Indiana O-line is that much better? Or Tulsa, Tulane, ECU, Temple, USF, etc.

Did NC State have a lousy O-line and that's why they tried to convert BS because they didn't think he could play QB?

Our offense is 100 plus? So not every team just 100 teams I watched IU the last 2 weeks and he clearly doesn't have to run for his life every play. What are we first or second in the nation in negative plays?

BINGO !!! How I yearn for the days of Deon & Tank. The problem is multifaceted as we have a recruited FB who threatened to leave unless put on the D side of the ball. Booby caved as he is a talent on that side also. Having said that it leaves us with a rookie walk on FB. Is it the HC or the OC that prefers to have 5 potential receiver's on the field of which only 2 are efficient at blocking.
Not saying BS is the best since sliced bread but I urge anyone that constantly thinks he is the problem to count the seconds he has to make reads compared to our competition. As for the Lagow thing it is a moot point as he walked in fear of competition. For those making comparisons and believe in stats. BS #94 RL #73...

Again, I missed the sarcasm.

I'm sarcastic, but I need to up my game to play here.
 
Is Lagow good at sticking the ball into an RBs ribs for three straight plays? No? We don't need him.
 
We are the Cleveland Browns of college football in evaluating QB talent.

Good point. I could probably play QB on this team.

The only prerequisites seem to be the ability to turn your hips 90 degrees to hand the ball off and to count the number of stars in the sky while lying flat on your back.

The guy stuck with it, and believed in himself, very happy for him. I hope that he gets to the next level.
