Slightly related but OT: OL position coaches have to be furious with this new trend of not throwing the ball away & taking the sack. Shedildo did it. Dylan did it. I'm guessing some other pretty boy QBs are doing it to protect their completion %. If I was an OL coach I'd be fuckin furious if my...
I mean, every year there's some undersized QB(s) who come up from lower ranks and dominate for their team. Every year we go 'why can't we ever sign a guy like this?' And we never do....we always take the Jeff Sims NFL measurables guy who can't play.
I know there's a chance of Colandrea not...
Damn you beat me to it. Streak ends on Saturday. I think Assembly Hall will be jacked up for the game, especially if IU wins midweek.
I was hoping for a split of these two & we already got our win. I think Indiana wins possibly by 10. We're due for just "one of those days."
100% agree.
I'm probably reaching with this one but I actually think the success of Emmet Johnson this year might have changed Rhule too. EJ of course the stud HS recruit but was too undersized so no big programs wanted him. Nebraska amazingly recruited him anyway.
I don't think Rhule probably...
The thing I love about this is it bucks the trend. When NU FB has a choice between NFL measurables vs smaller guy w/ skillsn& heart......we pick the NFL measurables like 99% of the time. Then skip over the little guy - who signs with our rival and destroys us later.
That's part of the reason I...
I admittedly had never seen film of Colandrea until after Minchey decommitted. I think Minchey will be very good this year.
I'm probably 51-49 Colandrea. Minchey is certainly the better pro prospect but Colandrea has the intangibles that NU needs in a QB.
Also will be great to have a 3-yr...
Gotcha
He'd be very smart to stay positive and stay here. Colandrea is a 1 yr guy. He's been a 3 yr starter. I think TJ will learn something from him this year.
Colandrea appears to be a team first guy. I think Dylan was probably a good mentor but the fact that Dylan wouldn't throw the ball...
The poll is who was the best choice out of all of those realistic (key word) options
TJ Lateef was an option
Minchey was an option
Chiles was an option
Pribula was an option
Lagway I assume was an option
Going from an immobile check-down king who purposefully took sacks to avoid throwing incompletions to an agile, lionhearted gives-no-fucks gunslinger....
Yeah I'll take that trade.
