Fall camp thread 2024

[ShortSideOption]

@ShortSideOption whats gonna happen at LT? Is there anyone behind Corc that can do the job?

I see them moving Gottula back over there and starting Corcoran, honestly. They moved Gottula to RT because Teddy and TC were battling it out, moved Knaack to guard since they felt good about their 2 deep at tackle, with guys like Brix waiting in the wings.

I don't like Corcoran over there anymore than the next guy but let's see what kind of shuffling happens this fall camp, and who knows, a true freshman may be ready (though that's a long shot).

Because a wildcat RB can't throw. Anyone trying to argue that they'd rather have a wildcat RB throw down there opposed to Haarberg is not living in reality.

Fair enough. I understand Lat, yourself and others wanting him inside the 5. Even though I really don't agree with that either. I'm more talking about those that want to see a package for him outside of that. When it comes to inside the 5 or on the goal line instead of putting HH out there, I'd rather give it to a RB or allow our generational QB to make a play with his arm or legs. He's not going to be asked to run a QB power type play nor should he be.

I just don't know why anyone that watched this team last year would want HH on the field (outside of garbage time) when we have Raiola. I think that if HH wasn't from Kearney and was from out of the state of Nebraska no one would be asking for him to play.

I think the point most of us are making is that HH can't throw down there either (or at least he shouldn't)

Kind of forgot about Noonan.

On Gradney we've had 1 spring practice on the turf and one? fall practice on the turf now with three knee injuries two season ending hopefully this doesn't become a trending problem throughout the season.

Prochazka's injury happened on grass.

I know I was talking about Gradney, Bell, and Blye Hill. Unfortunately Teddy is injury prone. I'm just curious if we have a potential problem practicing on grass but playing on turf or is it just a coincidence.

The problem people are making with him throwing are thinking he’s going to be throwing the ball into a compressed field with tight zone coverage. That’s not how shit works on the GL vs 32,23, and 14 personnel. The defense is going to be in their goal line defense. With 5 to 6 on the LOS. And the rest pressed up. The personnel grouping creates space.

I really don’t get why that’s difficult to understand. It’s a packed box, with man to man. It doesn’t take much run action at all to throw a pop or an arrow to score.

I’m a big proponent of Q run. Extra hat. And Baylor under Rhule ran a bunch of Q power from 13 personnel and were very successful. All over the field.

The ushers will have to clean my blood and guts off of the balcony under the 600s if Dylan marches down the field just for harbaarg to throw it for 6 the other way

Which is why I made the point that HH missed wide open receivers a lot last year. Even if the coverage is favorable, I don’t believe HH is reliable enough to make that throw, or even find the open receiver. I’d rather live and die on the arm of Raiola.

Old Big XII with 8 teams.

Man... imagine the old Big 12 as a super conference with 6 others like Utah, BYU, Arizona, Arizona State, TCU, and Houston. Would be a fun conference.

And that's fine, and legit criticism. The whole compressed field and too many defenders in zone coverage idea grinds my gears.

That’s fair. My argument was he can throw better than a wildcat RB, so I don’t mind him having a package of plays especially in short yardage or goal line situations.

I assume that's to make the playoff?

Yes it is. I imagine that people are buying Nebraska solely on Raiola hype right now

How hard is it to understand that HH sucks? Get over him already.
