Garrett.  Made tech attack Chapman's side all night. Int, great tackles, broken passes.

Or.....

Guidry with 2 blocked fieldgoals.

Special teams were good but 4 take aways were huge plus stepped in up in the second half.

Haven't watched a replay yet, to confirm other plays, but I know on at least one of the false starts the TTU DE was flinching his back leg to draw the OL movement (taking advantage of the noise).  I always thought the Refs could call that on the D if they see it and are so inclined (however, I have little faith in any Big 12 crew)l

True, but I was pretty irate at him after that onside kick. He played better than he usually does, and it was a feel good game for him, but he didn't have the best game out of everyone on the team.

he's an easy target for lazy fans and that's the point that i was trying to make. maybe you aren't lazy and you're just bored though, i don't know. overall, he's fine and i'd say he's an average member out of our 22 starters that were on the field tonight. certainly not "terrible" and certainly made more than "a few nice plays tonight".

Exactly.  The commentators were giving him props several times tonight and said he had 7 solo tackles and the INT.  Definitely a very good game for Hartman.  And I don't think that he normally "sucks" either.

I think Zimmerman is pretty decent.  Certainly not a hole.  If Hartman had simply hit that damn onside kick out of bounds, we could've ended the game earlier. Hartman's only skill is tackling a running back after he gets past the LBs and that skill is marginal.  That said, this was Hartman's best game

Both are actually pretty decent for what we're trying to do/hide with our defense. The thing about playing that position is that when you get burned, it's going for six, and this is what your average tuck sees.

Hartman plays safety, and a lot of times when it looks like Hartman got burned and it's all his fault, the reality is that the corner got burned and Hartman has to help as the secondary defender, thus making him look bad.  I'm not saying he is fabulous at coverage, but at the same time, you can't hold a safety to quite as high of a standard as a cornerback in coverage like that.

I don't hold the onside against Hartman, I believe any other player would have had the exact same outcome. We didn't have enough players to supplement the "hands" portion. Everyone else on that side was blocking. However, Hartman is still same ol 2y, serviceable against the run but pretty terrible in coverage.
Title: Re: Gameball
Post by: jtksu on October 16, 2011, 01:16:53 AM
You guys know the difference between strong and free safeties, right?  And their job isn't to not get burnt, it's to help the corners cover their man.  A lot of times, Tysyn is coming from a long way away to try and pick up the WR that just ran right past the corner who was supposed to be covering him.

The onside kick was 100% Hartman's fault. He could have batted the ball out of bounds, or better yet, actually blocked somebody on the kicking team so the guy behind him could field the kick. Actually, Sean should take much of the blame. Obviously, we don't practice onside kicks enough. There is no excuse for giving up an onside kick, ever.

I don't blame Hartman on the onside kick.  It was an awesome kick because of how long it stayed in the air, and I'm not 100% sure that Hartman was even able to touch the ball on that.  Would have to look at a replay again.  But him acting as a blocker would not have worked unless it was set up that way beforehand.  For him to decide not to field it at the last second and instead block would not have allowed the guy behind enough time to react and field that kick, and since it had gone 10 yards the same result probably would have happened.

When the Tech player jumped up to field the ball, Hartman should have laid him out. Simple as that. He's a defensive back. He should be ideal for that situation, and he totally mumped it up. Other than that, he had a pretty good game, and the hate he receives from our fans is just ridiculous.

Why would 2ys want to lay him out? I'm on team try to catch the ball or team knock it out of bounds.

The ball is moving toward K-State players and away from Tech players. When it pops up that high, the players at the front should use their advantage and try to keep the Tech players from gaining possession. To sit back and try to field the ball like it's a pop fly is just stupid.

Yeah, gaining possession of the ball is way better than hitting some dude and letting the ball bounce around even more.

Yes, that worked out just perfectly.

I partially misunderstood you, but I still disagree. IF we had more guys out there to field the kick, then 2ys should have definitely "blocked" the Tech player. But there was no one else even in the vicinity. He was the only one who had a chance to field that, with our other "hands" members no where to be found.

True. It's possible our other hands members mumped the play up so bad that it just made 2y's look bad. I would have to watch the play again to be sure.

Generally, the first wave blocks and the 2nd wave attempts to gain control of the ball, which Tysyn did.  Trying to pin a botched onside kick on any one dude is pretty silly.  There's a reason onsides seldom work, it's pretty much a crapshoot. We lost that one, oh well.  Regardless, our entire D did a solid overall job today and a great job in the 2nd half.  Deal.

Recovering an onside kick is basically the same thing as catching a hail mary if the rules allowed for pass interference. Hartman is a defensive back. I'm pretty hesitant to cut him any slack for that one. Otherwise, great game for Hartman and the rest of the defense. :lynchmob: :dunno:

The onside kick was a great kick. However, Tysyn needed to go up and catch that ball. He let the ball come down to him, in a battle for possession like that, he has to grab the ball.

That was as textbook an onsides kick as any of us will ever see. The point is after that kick, Tech had ALL the momentum and we still made the stop to finish the game! My play of the game was the 3rd down pass break-up on the ensuing series; it would've likely been 1st down and new wind in Tech's sails - but we made the stop boys, WE MADE THE STOP!!!

2y's 4th quarter INT was a thing of beauty.  Also the late hit call against him was just atrocious.

2ys

He had some nice plays, but he also had some very bad plays.

as would anybody playing his position that was being asked to do what he is.

hartman is garbage.  tonight was the best game of his career, and he was still garbage.  like the above poster stated he had some nice plays, but his occasional nice plays dont make up for his overall shittyness..

yeah. and anytime kstate loses they need to start playing the back up quarterback. gotcha.

lol.  not saying that at all.  im also not saying hartman needs to be benched just that he sucks even if he is our best option.

hartman made a few nice plays tonight.  hes still terrible.  he made one of the most pathetic attempts at a tackle i have ever seen on one of the early touchdowns tech had tonight.  given the lack of his overall talent he does really well.

You are not a very nice person.

Yes, these people are so good at judging talent they can see that Hartman's true calling is at corner.  A CB that runs a 4.64 40.  He's the slowest safety on the board.  He won't get drafted.  He is our worst DB in coverage and that is why everyone hates him.

Good game overall for 2ys but he tried to catch the onside kick over the shoulder like a WR.  Did the same thing on a Gabbert jump ball TD to Alexander in the 2009 game.

The real question is why was Hartman put over there to field the onside kick? It should have been DB's and LB's up front to block the "gunners" and wide receivers (Why wasn't Harper over there???) behind to make the catch.

Elementary special teams. I would think sean would know this crap considering who his dad is and all......

Tommy Tuberville - for being such a dumbass he didn't realize Tech actually scored that one touchdown and ran another play before it got reviewed.

except it wasnt a touchdown...

sure looked like one, I was at the bar, so couldn't hear the commentary, but sure looked like he was across.   

just watched the torrent. Just like Jacory...he was 1 yard short. A game of inches.  :cheers:
