Title: Things we learned: Week 1
Post by: BleedingPurple7 on September 04, 2011, 06:56:09 AM
Arthur is the real deal. Bryce is not

Oline looked on par with Prince's teams

Klein is no Coffman

Defense as a whole looked decent.

I'm going to buy Rev Honey today

I'm not judging Bryce off that game.

I am judging the oline. Just terrible.

There's also no reason to think any of our QBs since Freeman would have had a significantly different performance.

Do you think that if he was half as good as he was touted to be, he'd be sharing snaps? The fact that he's not a clear cut starter tells me what I need to know. I'm not saying he won't be a good back, but barring injury to Hubert I don't believe Bryce will be leading this team in rushing this season.

If you had told 90% of our fans that we'd need a fourth quarter comeback, they'd have started working out the same excuses sputtering out now.

We fit reality into the pre-destined narrative of Snyder as diety.

Yep, 4.5 ypc as a Freshman in the SEC was probably just a fluke.  He just needs to be coached up more by Bill and when he starts doing things the right way, he will beat out greats like Hubert.   :flush:

Things we learned: Week 1


being reminded that message boards are great after games like this one.

meh...i didn't expect the offense to come out firing on all cylinders.  I figured we'd score 24-27 pts, tops.  First time out for the interior OL against what is supposed to be a salty FCS defense.  We'll live.

Actually Prince's first game against Illinois State we rushed for like 10 yards.  Last night was about 200 and they threw the kitchen sink at us defensively.   Lots of room to improve.  hopefully it gets done...if it doesn't then we might consider jumping off a cliff.

The backs had no room to run. Our offensive line play was very poor.  Can't really judge any of the skill position players, because of just how terrible our line was.

Reminiscent of 2005 offense...OL disintegrating at the snap, RBs who can't stay on their feet, and not valuing the ball

Some people still drink the "Snyder will get it fixed" kool-aid.

Well, we've seen many times over the last 5 seasons with Snyder that it doesn't get fixed.  It doesn't get fixed because this staff doesn't recruit well enough to get it fixed.

Maybe it's the fact that he's a lazy pos and didn't start working hard until camp, where as the other running backs worked hard since the bowl game. If you think Hubert is going to have the most carries on this team at the end of the season then you're clearly mistaken.

Fumbles suck.

 The O-line sucked but got it together in time for what will be known as "The Drive" to future generations. 

I still believe in both Browns being NFL talent, I'm ok with Bill holding back on Bryce's carries if he puts it on the ground to make a point.

Lockett will return 3 kicks for TDs this season.

 I never bought in to a 9 win season anyway.

Those still on the Snyder bandwagon: Opening his 20th season as a head coach and winning 10-7 over a middle of the road lower division school, with a team that was missing their #1 QB and WR, at home, is completely pathetic.

Maybe. Snyder gave us coachspeak the entire offseason about how the RBs were rather even and the job was still up in the air. As usual, I didn't look too much into this because he could be revealing that for a multitude of reasons. However, coming into last night's game, I figured we would have someone who would the majority of the carries, and then another RB take the rest. I don't think he's trying to "dog house" Bryce at this point. I believe Snyder is giving the spot to whoever is doing the best, and right now that is apparently Hubert. I'm not saying Bryce isn't the real deal because he carried the ball 3 times and fumbled once, I say it because if he was, I believe he would be getting all the snaps.

Games like these happen sometimes.  To pretend that we're the only program that's ever come close to having an embarrassing loss is a little ridiculous.

If we continue to be as bad as we were last night, then I'll agree that it's time for us to write this team off, but until then, I think the meltdown is probably a bit premature.

It was bittersweet for me, being that I spent 5 great years at Western Michigan.. It was like choosing between the love of your life, and a hooker that you visit weekly for a few years..

Anyway, the important thing here is that you guys won, losing to FCS teams really suck.. Everybody struggles against shitty teams now and again, but as long you escape with a win then it's more of a learning experience, or some crap..

I got into it with a few tucks, even a younger tuck, over the special teams.

I can't remember if it was Lockett, but someone caught a punt on the 3 yard line and was quickly tackled very close to our goal line.  I went ballistic. I screamed "let the rough ridin' ball go!"  This old man turned around and said "gotta catch the ball to score."  And I retorted "not on the rough ridin' 3 yard line!  You let the ball go!"  He didn't like my signs of disrespect and turned around.  Then I started complaining about the special teams play and how the coach must be horrible and this younger tuck commented "well the coach's name is on that wall over there [/pointing to wall]."

Yeah it was Lockett.  He did it twice inside the ten, which drove me nuts.

Bad discipline/coaching.

Oh I almost forgot.  The old tuck after I yelled at him said "well that's Lockett's kid and he's got a lot of pressure to return those for touchdowns."

do you guys think it's possible that sean is such a "punting coach" that he coaches our punt return to do things to hurt our own team but would help out the other teams punter? i hope he isn't doing this, but based on what i saw last week, i have to say it's possible. he should be put on probation immediately until it can be inspected at least. if he's cleared, then i have no problem letting him back on staff but i would want someone to be in charge of him and watch him.

You guys have no idea how much pressure Sean has on him to be a successful Associate Head Coach. There's no way he's able to focus on a aspect as insignificant as special teams when he is associately in charge of every player, offensive scheme, defensive scheme, and not to mention all of the assistant coaches. Maybe you guys should sit back and think about how much is on Sean's plate before you start criticizing something as unimportant as punt returns.

Barry Switzer once called LHC Bill Snyder the coach of the century.

Some of you may have heard that before, but I bet some people learned it during Week 1 as part of Wefald's interview with "The Merc".

Yeah he probably was the coach of the century but the problem is that was last century.

Did Lockett set up bryce's fumble? I can't remember. So he probably did.
