    Yeah, IIRC Whittington was recruited here as a WR and only switched to RB because accomplished CFB HCs Tom Herman and Stan Drayton managed the RB room so poorly that we didn’t have any actual RBs available to play.

    I’m all for Weigman playing this year, but Idk why the Weigmans want him to play this year. That OL is horrible and he will get the shit beat out of him while forming bad habits.

    This still missed the point, though. If the offer came from a collective, not a coach or anyone involved with the Alabama program, then there’s no one for the NCAA to punish, regardless of whether it runs afoul of an NCAA rule or a law.

    Youre just flat out wrong on this. An elite RB will still inflate the numbers for an OL in these metrics. Good vision and elite agility will result in more line yards for an OL.

    with all due respect, you are really fucking stupid.

    We’re getting a little overrated for OU because computers don’t take injuries into account, but they love our defense because we have a low YPP and we limit explosive plays very effectively. They also think the amount of third and longs and fourth downs we give up will return to the mean, but that doesn’t take into account how bad PK and our defense is at situational play calling and executing. Our defense is absolutely overrated if metrics have us in the top 10 defensively. Lmao wut. Overshown won’t even sniff the 2nd round. He’s not good at football. Casual fans drastically overrate him. You also probably have RoJo, Sweat and Ojomo too low and Whittington too high.

    You should lay off telling other people their reality is skewed. We absolutely have guys who will get drafted on this defense.

    Lol wut. He’s a true freshman and their OLis god awful. Getting him killed behind a terrible OL doesn’t help get Weigman ready. He’s better off redshirting.

    Thompson was rated high because he's extremely fast, but he was super raw in HS and needs a lot of development. He's also undersized, so I'd bet he's a terrible blocker right now. He likely needs more time.

    The difference is soft coverage is a problem when the defense executes the coverage correctly, but it still gives up a first because the coverage had them playing too far off. Blown coverage is when the players on the defense don't execute the call correctly. It's a meaningful difference when we're talking about it in the thread about our DC and whether his calls are to blame for the failure or it's another issue. You're wrong about our defense on Saturday. The biggest problem was our back 7 not executing. When guys are getting open deep down the field like they were on Saturday, calling a soft coverage is not usually to blame.

    Ehhh. Conner has been really bad too. He's actually even lower graded than Hutson by PFF, and Hutson seems like he's improving at a better rate.

    There's a difference between blown coverage and soft coverage. Most of this board sees a WR open and immediately calls it soft coverage. Soft coverage is generally referred to when teams are playing way off the receivers and drop at the snap. We do this some, where we line up at the first down marker and then the DBs still bail, giving up an easy first, but most of the conversions this week were deeper in the secondary, which would be blown coverages/assignments.

    It's almost like this is college football and teams' performances vary greatly week to week. You'll have trouble finding any defense in CFB that plays well every week. UGA might be the only exception and that's because they always have a massive talent advantage. FIFY.

    Now do run grades or overall grades on the season.
  16. Burt Macklin
    The problem with your post is you assume other guys aren’t playing because they’re worse than the guys who are, but we played guys like Brockermeyer, all last year and left better guys on the bench, like Ford.
  17. Burt Macklin
    Ash wasn’t good, you dumb motherfucker.
  18. Burt Macklin
    This is also bullshit. We were planning to start Conner and Majors. There were guys in the portal who could start over them.
  19. Burt Macklin
    Go look up Cole Hutson’s grades this year and then report back on whether we could’ve used a transfer, smart guy.
  20. Burt Macklin
    It has a range of penalties from very minor ones to deducting points, so basically whatever the FIA feels like.

    People saying the offense shit the bed or Quinn had bad day are the same ones who said ISU’s defense isn’t that good and we should win in a blowout earlier this week. This is what ISU’s defense does to teams, and Sark has never been able to figure out this defense. It shouldn’t be surprising Quinn struggled. What should be surprising is how good our defense made Dekkers look. This will be by far his best game of the season. PK did an absolutely terrible job today, and we were lucky to get a win in spite of it.
  22. Burt Macklin
    Oh and the dumbasses who were expecting a shutout. Those guys too.
  23. Burt Macklin
    Where are all those dumbasses who were saying all week that the ISU defense isn’t good and it’s only because they hadn’t played any good teams?
  24. Burt Macklin
    You just looked at a chart that predicts our final W/L record as 8.7-3.3, and your interpretation of it is that we win out? Well, ok then.
  25. Burt Macklin
    It’s not a concern when you seek upperclassmen to replace part of losing your top 3 DTs. It would be dumb of them not to.
