Warmack looked nice too

I would have said that about this week. Not sure why Jones got the nod. I suspect Silmon has not done very well with blocking in practice.

While I've not reached out to confirm it, this is the most likey scenario... As both Silmon and Warmack are RS Frosh, they are probably still working to pick up blocking and blitz pick-up responsibilities.

this is pretty important with the way the Bazooka isn't afraid to check to going downtown

The scope of plays we have run with Silmon has been limited. If we expand him this weekend, i.e add some zone reads, ect. We will know he is setup to take over at Stillwater.

I wonder where the term "gets the nod" came from. Is that how coaches used to tell people they were starting, just one head nod before the game? Did they shake their head at all the backups? These are the things I think about sometimes.

Silmon is better at just running forward and doesn't try to be all fancy like jones. And thats what i like about him he locks in and runs. And that's why we should #startsilmon

I want Silmoney to block his ass off when Bazooka sets dials to launch mode.

That Silmon is too stupid to read/learn the playbook or that we can't teach him the playbook well enough?

Or inflexibility in adjusting to changing situations by the coaching staff. Insisting on calling certain plays that are proven not to work is already a known issue with the OC's play calling. Why is it a stretch to think that maybe they should also consider the personnel they have that's actually capable of making plays when they select plays... Or maybe we can just continue to insist on slamming square pegs into round holes and then settling for less than we necessarily have to as a result.

Well the hyperactive Snyderites will assail you, but it's always seemed stupid that we can't roll with the hot hand. But, that's not our offense!!!

Charles Jones is still here? Couldn't run Bryce Brown off fast enough but this Charles Jones guy can start for us for 7 years smdh.

I thought a refusal to care about blocking (thus almost getting Klein murdered in Miami) led to a benching, which led to Bryce opting to leave. Not sure if that counts as running him off.

this is some epically discouraging crap to read. especially taken in totality. my insider tidbits former team member guy says part of the discouragement is not just guys destroying their bodies for little reward, but that snyder doesn't ever come out of his office. like, and this is a direct quote, "snyder doesn't even know half the team, like their names, or anything about them."

Sounds about right. He's been a figure-head for years.

He's still got a long way to go before he reaches my level.
