      The players call it the ship. That’s been a popular term with high school and college athletes for about 3 years now.

      He can take a hit that he can absorb while running with the football. It’s those hits that you take where youre still in the act of securing the ball that hurt.

      You’re right that he does take chances for the extra yardage.

      Or just see if there is another QB that can run the offense and make a variety of throws. Jason and Jack now deserve some meaningful reps. This is 3 games of crap from the offense. Give the kids a shot.

      Go read my posts from last year when I was bullied off the board for suggesting KW wasn’t the guy. I don’t believe he is. He puts a good defense on the field and even with a dog s**t offense we’ve been able to win games.

      This team is likely to get to six wins. The question at the end of the year will be is everyone satisfied with another lower tier bowl victory? Long term, that’s our identity. Good enough to win bad bowls, and tough enough to be respected by opponents. Lots of programs would be satisfied with that.

      I think there is a fair amount of risk here. If Gary can quietly understand his role and defer to Morgan, then it could be great.

      If there is any whiff of Gary big-timing Morgan, it would undermine defensive chemistry in a big way, and Morgan’s defense still needs to develop their identity.

      High risk, high reward IMO.

      I don’t get understand why everyone blows up on Pace so much. So what if he has an opinion that people disagree with. This wasn’t even a post about his opinion. It was factual. He is not a troll looking to rile people up. On the contrary, we’ve seen him eat crow and OWN IT on several occasions in the face of logic and evidence. We should embrace opinions across the spectrum, and if we disagree, personal attacks and requests to shut up aren’t the solution. Use your down thumb, ignore, or talk about it.

      Penalties are part of the game. Every team has to deal with them in every game.
      You have to judge by final outcomes, not if this, then that zoob logic.

      Utes have been losers in this league, and I’d say most of the blame goes to the offense and fill in the blank OC.

      The defense makes it easy. Score 30 points and we win. Only a couple other Pac offenses have an easier ask.

      Good to hear the team sounds mentally prepared. I hope there are contingency plans in place if we don’t score more than one offensive touchdown again.

      Any insight as to root causes of scoring ineptitude?

      This is wrong. There are different throws for different routes and distances. Anyone who knows anything about playing QB knows you don’t fire a fastball on a rope to every receiver every time…

      Anyone that thinks Huntley is a good quarterback never played football or doesn’t understand the position. He’s a great athlete that can throw the ball hard and straight. That’s it. He has no pocket awareness, can’t read a defense, can’t make a decision fast enough, doesn’t alter his ball for position of player, spacing of defense, or distance of throw, and doesn’t know how to finish a play with his feet.
