Isaac showed flashes of brilliance as a HS qb, but was more dual threat. He definitely has to learn the college game and to become a good qb, must either overwhelm with physical talents OR (and a little AND) read defenses, make quick decisions while making multiple reads, etc. With higher talent in college, that’s a big adjustment (HS often is one…[Read more]

Having JJ, Cam hands it off instead of scrambles playing Baylor, not getting his finger cut/dislocation and keeps playing and we are 8-0. What if … I stepped on a butterfly ;). But we pay JJ and Cam leaves, so we have Rose handing off to JJ and they stack the box and our qb throws a lot of interceptions and we are 4-4…

He has redshirted. He has 2 years of eligibility including this one, so he has next year left and can’t redshirt this year (although if he had not already redshirted, he could have at this point in the season – it’s 4 games or less).

Who is going to do this? NCAA? no. But I could see this type of concept gain traction when the P2 break away and form their own governance and rules (read SEC and B1G meeting a couple weeks ago to discuss how to mutually benefit each conference).

I looked up the weather hoping for a blizzard, but it looks like the day should be in the 60s, so cooler in the evening, but a pretty nice fall game. Bummer.

A 2nd good RB would help. JJ was injured vs LSU and out Miss St. and might be out Ole Miss, so on par. Ankle issues. Maybe that lightens the load and JJ and MB split more, but having a less experienced qb has stacked the box which might be the biggest issue.

Agreed, if you’re BYU, how mad would you be? The #9 team in the country being buried on ESPN at 10:15PM EST lol…

I mean, almost impossible, but the five highest-ranked conference champions includes the champions of the ACC, Big Ten, Big12, and SEC and THEN the highest-ranked champion of the G5. So a 9-3 champion would be in, but likely be the 12 seed as the G5 would likely be higher ranked and get the 4 seed (1st round bye).

We should start whistling and hissing like other countries instead of booing. I think the oo sound just carries and is differentiated from the oh sound (for general crowd noise) or ah in yeaaaaaahhhh for cheers. It’s just sounds voicing an emotion. So, really, you are saying you don’t feel there should be any negative emotions shared, only good…[Read more]

His contract already gives him 1.5M upon retirement and 995k/yr for 5 years as an asst to the AD. Either way, he’s fine.

Sports are our gladiators. Our proxy for war pitting champions against champions.

I don’t boo much, but when I do, I do it loudly.

Even after he steps down, he has a 5-year agreement to be a special assistant to the AD for just under $1M/yr

I do doubt Whitt will give him free reigns. He’ll still want time of possession and a balanced attack, but hopefully the pass plays, motion, quick routes, etc. will get better to help Isaac get rid of the ball and make quick decisions and the offense will move more. Even under center vs shotgun or going quick paced at points could change things.

I turned probably between you two on Sunday.

I think one could argue that the playcalling relies on execution, so Cam/Isaac not executing would lead to unconverted opportunities (how many redzone or close 4th downs were not converted). But maybe that playcalling isn’t what matches the talent/skill level of Cam/Isaac at the time, so they need to make changes. Also, if a team is stacking the…[Read more]

Please – so then Isaac will somehow light it up and we find an identity.
