  1. Lagaryonn our wayward son Carson
  2. Don't gotta be big to be effective. He's athletic, plays with good leverage, and consistently uses good technique out there. You almost never see him off balance out there. He's also flanked and assisted by two giant guards.
  3. Two Washington guys on that list. The LT probably isn't far behind either.
  4. I was just about to post that. USC definitely has more weapons on offense than we do and they have an excellent scheme as well. We have a better OL though. If they had anything close to our defense, they would have beat Washington.
  5. The stats don't tell the whole story, especially not with the way they do CFB stats with sack yardage. Check out the Oregon State game this year or some of his tape from Indiana. He's not nearly the threat with his legs as he is with his arm, but he can convert crucial 3rd downs and goal to go plays with them if given the opportunity.
  6. I've watched just about every UW game this year. Penix is a capable scrambler, I think he'd beat Ford or Thompson/Taaffe to the edge if he needed to. I don't think he has much wiggle after the two torn acls in his right knee, but he can get going in a single direction. They may not want to, but they can, and we have shown some vulnerability there this season. I expect Quinn to run when given the opportunity on Monday as well.
  7. Penix is a pretty capable runner, so maybe that is the wrinkle they show more of in this game. He's more mobile than most seem to give him credit for.
  8. I believe we see Brooks/Watts due to their strong run support. Washington thrives on runs to the edges.
  9. Yea, Penix doesn't make abnormally fast reads post snap. He also trusts his arm too much. His footwork tends to break down as he gets uncomfortable too. Would have loved to see him against UCLA this year. I don't think we need to get home to have success, but disrupting the short game enough to make him hold the ball and read the field will do wonders. I'm also interested in seeing how Ethan Burke's rush impacts Penix's tendency to drop way back in his drops. He tends to go more upfield than he should, but it may work out well in this game. Their tackles are pretty athletic and long but Burke is quick to the edge when he can key on the pass.
  10. That sucks, he was really good. Happy for him though
  11. Dream school wins out
  12. DB film is solid, but he doesn't have the build for it. 5'11ish and shorter arms. He's slight, but his best asset is his competitiveness. Quick/fast enough and plays tough as hell.
  13. It's the opposite. He was playing very well this year, but decided to stop so he could take extra classes and be a spring enrollee.
  14. I'm sure they vetted him some, but he was just offered yesterday. Impressive for the kid to finish HS early after not planning to until recently
  15. That list is INTs and fumbles lost
  16. Everyone is looking to make the best decision for them and those around them. You would do the same. If you have more time to consider all of the angles and potentially sweeten the deal, you would/should do the same.
  17. Wilson ran 4.63 at the opening as a junior or so, ripped off that 4.37 at the NFL combine. Some of my friends up there said he was immediately one of the most explosive guys on the team the minute he stepped foot in Columbus. They tend to overrate their own guys, but that was the sentiment shared. He's got short range burst and long speed. HS/camp times aren't the end all be all
  18. Same, I watched him plenty after his title game as a junior and thought he was a scrappy gamer at QB. High 5 star guy? Nah
  19. I think everyone is an EE outside of Hills, Kibble, Kern, and Wilson So about 20 new guys coming to campus in January.
  20. Probably referring to TyAnthony Smith's pending decision
  21. Barring injury, he's gonna be a solid rotational guy next year. I think he'll get to around 240-245 by the start of the season.
  22. That's the same guy we were going after for a bit, but eventually passed on. Talented route runner. Good get for them
  23. His next destination is likely Tyler J.C. Maybe SHSU if he has the grades.
