I didn’t say that. I said give him “some credit”, not all, for what we accomplished. Sometimes folks want to be right more than they want to hear another view.
All good points. but perhaps run the same numbers and compare them to UConn peers' numbers from last year. Delete numbers from CCSU, Michigan, NC State, and Syracuse. What do those numbers look like then?
What else is he going to say about one of his quarterbacks? Zion seems to be a good kid...and he managed the game well enough for the team to win 6 games. But he was not great.
I think everyone's heard this over and over. People just have just made different assessments based on what they watched. Doesn't make them right or wrong. A QB competition may answer some of these questions.
Not everybody reads the BY as a daily ritual.Wowsome of us were watch a lot of basketball the last few weeks and sleeping through football news
Maybe. Obviously behind the curve, but Mora said Tyler is not participating spring semester (now), leaving open the possibility he will be available in the fall semester (football semester) since he is still part of the team.
He is confiding in you. Who knew?
To catch you up....TP is in the transfer portal.
No, but he has eyes. He has to know. Have you watched any of the games?
You are looking back to last year and projecting it on to this year with a different cast of characters because he is, you think, using “coach speak”. You are as in the dark as are we all.
Missed it. Thanks. As I said, reading every thread every day is not a religion for me. Its also why some of the snark toward people who aren’t caught up is sort of 3rd grade stuff. BTW, with a few exceptions, which there are for sure, I don’t see the football portal as being quite as significant as the revolving hoops door. Free agency on steroids college style.
No, not at all. I am looking back at last year and assessing it at face value. I say often, probably on this thread as well, that players can and do improve. By all accounts, Zion is a great kid. He gave it give us everything he had. He made meaningful contributions. I am also saying that any competent coach or even casual observer knows, absolutely, beyond any reasonable doubt, that our QB play held our team back. It was a negative not a positive. Both the eye test and statistics clearly bear this out.
Not to argue, sort of, but i’m pretty sure you said Mora knows we have a QB problem, as in the present tense for the coming season, and based on “coach speak” regarding Zion for last year, as in the past tense. All he said for the coming year is that Zion has improved a good bit, which might or might not be “coach speak” because none of us has a clue about Zion this year and we also have no clue about the others in the competition. Unless you think competition for a position is the same as a “problem”, as i said none of us know a thing about that, and it’s a “problem” only if none of them is good enough at this level. We will see.
Oh, please. Reminds me a favorite bit on Newhart:
Oh please what? A guy says he knows a guy has a problem now because he had a problem last year? Don’t defame Newhart like that. Mixing coaches and horses.
This is a pretty good self-own. The next show the guy who created Newhart started was called Coach.
Ok, you win, you can judge a problem this year from a different set of circumstances last year. Its a horse of a different color, coach.
