Cook loves the little hopstep right before his break. Can guys do that in a real game or does it throw off the timing too much?

[Fico 1778]

If it’s an option route in single coverage he can work it in, but that should get worked out as he gets better coaching.  Better film study will zero and better dbs will zero in on it and you can’t explode in any direction if your feet are off the ground.

Seems wasteful movement to me.

[Fico 1778]

It’s also 1v1 drills… so it’s not real football anyway. I’d be curious to see if he does it in real game action

[Tex-19 2872]

I've only been watching this UA game for a few minutes but saw him do it on the only route I saw from him. He did shake the shit out of the guy on a slant (but didn't get thrown to).

You'd think Margin Hooks would coach that out of him 

[Lonestar88 4629]

 

[Fico 1778]

Yeah it will be interesting to see.

Granted on a slant you throw a bunch of shit at the DB off the line to see if you can get him turned/off-balance and explode into your route…. I just don’t like the leaving your fear part of it.

From watching the videos, it looks like he’s coaching it into him. 

[ousux 5597]

imagine being a 5* recruit.
one of the top recruits in Texas.
#1 RB in the country in the composite.
you have taken OVs to A&M, TCU and were committed to Louisville for a long time. you took UOVs to Michigan State, Alabama, LSU and Texas. all of them talked to you about their NIL programs, fairly extensively in the case of some of those schools.
...after hearing about NIL that many times from that many schools and that many different people explaining it different ways you say out loud...in pubic that don't understand NIL.
sounds like you weren't paying attention at all. even the minimum about.

 

He didn't pay attention because he has no intention of doing anything other than play football to earn NIL $. aggy is just a more useful idiot than Louisville.

It reminds me of a basketball player before doing a cross-over.

Fuck ESPN recruiting coverage and the boy announcer named “Onion.” Made the contention Muhammad may have chosen a different destination had SOC not gone so far in the playoffs.

Awesome. Clear evidence that Muhammed is showing promise.

Am I crazy or didn't McDonald commit to OKST as a DE? I know he was a tweener, but Corner?

Shitty game... underwhelming.   Wouldn't waste time on stats.

The only thing I gathered from the little bit I watched is that Miami has the ESPN 3rd ranked class and is the next great dynasty.

The hop step is Davante Adams' signature release off the line.

He won't play corner at the next level but that just speaks to his great athleticism.

Might you be thinking of Billy Walton from SOC?  He was a DE previously committed to the Pokes.

McDonald is a badass, he could be a wildcat QB if he wanted.

He better get a move on it. He’ll be legal drinking age by the fall.
