  1. That's a weird metric to evaluate talent with, but...sure? Their WRs are plenty good for this level, they generally eat against zone, but guys like Bradley and Price have had success for much of the year in key situations. We've definitely been abused by worse. Shit, Savion Williams went for nearly 200 against us and he only has 525 yards on the season.
  2. Tech's WRs aren't bad at all. They struggled to handle the physicality of our DBs. The most surprising play by the secondary was Jerrin Thompson picking up a WR on the boundary during a corner blitz. He was in phase, but he didn't have to defend for long. Tech couldn't block our front and that made it impossible for their guys to get anything going consistently.
  3. Too nasty. Gotta rein it in a bit and keep it closer to the whistle
  4. There was no hero ball needed for this team to be productive. It isn't driven by Bijan, Rojo, Brooks, Baxter, Quinn, whoever. It is the Sark playcalling and play designing. There will be production as long as there is decent blocking.
  5. Quinn had a bad game and we still beat them by 50. The defense was completely dominant. Tech stuck with the run even though it clearly wasn't gonna carry the water. Hell of a game by the Texas defense, OL, and special teams.
  6. Quinn looks abysmal tonight. Any lingering questions about possibly heading to the draft should be answered with a resounding no at this point. Thankfully the other phases of the ball are carrying more than their weight.
  7. Even Sark was like wtf is he looking at?
  8. That was clear roughing. If Quinn could fucking see the field, that would have been a first down either way
  9. Quinn isn't throwing deep very well today. Lots of turnover-worthy throws today.
  10. If we keep fucking around, Brooks will have an opportunity to start getting longer runs. Gotta force them to throw the ball more. Our pass rush will overwhelm those guys.
  11. Quinn has been underthrowing everything. Either he's late or he's underthrowing it. Will Stone needs to kick the ball out of the endzone the entire second half, don't give them any more chances to swing momentum.
  12. Quinn has poor pocket presence. They gotta be able to protect against a 3 man rush better though.
  13. Take the points, don't risk turnovers
  14. These guys completely lose their composure in key moments. Red zone, short yardage, etc. How many fucking penalties do we have in those situations? It's inconceivable.
  15. They have to literally pull their jerseys off for the ref to think about calling holding in this game. That tech tackle was holding onto Finkley's hand like a child holds his mommas hand in a crowd. Sark needs to make this game much simpler on offense. Too cute. They need to surround Brooks and never assume he's tackled.
  16. I mentioned it could change during the process, either for the better or for the worse. It’s definitely riskier than coming out next year as a more likely top 3 guy.
  17. They don’t. Quinn is currently seen as the 7-9th rated draft eligible qb. It may or may not change during the process.
  18. This would be the third time this year, where are you hearing this?
  19. That's too bad, but he'll get a chance to make a case for himself here before transferring to UTSA or Incarnate Word if it doesn't work out.
  20. Atticus replied to GreenspointTexas's topic in Football
    Football is a forcible contact sport
  21. None of those major guys listed are going to take "prove-it" contracts. Elko/Fisch could if the base is high enough.
  22. Landon Jackson has turned into an early day 2 guy, despite a rough start to his career. I don't think Lance has the same upside, but we could definitely do worse.
  23. While I understand the concept of schadenfreude, there is plenty of grasping at straws going on here. Shaka has proven that he isn't a fraud with the work he has done in his short time at Marquette. Now he's got this scrappy team of afterthought players doing very well against a very good KU team.
  24. Additionally, the moment they get a guy that has a decent/good year or two. The market/his agent will get rid of all that incentive shit at the first opportunity that presents itself.
  25. Holmes always lacked physicality, but he's not able to turn and run with any confidence either. So he plays off, gives up the catch, then misses the tackle. I doubt he's anything more than spot depth next year. There's more upside elsewhere.
