It may be just a little too easy to blame the WR coach. But if a guy can’t catch the football, he can’t catch the football. And the younger guys, when given a chance, have shown that they CAN catch the football. My assumption is that the “loyalty” thing has caused the wrong players to get the majority of the playing time — unless we’re to believe that the WR coach has “taught” the upperclassmen how to NOT catch a football and has yet to inflict similar damage on the young WRs. I get it if the call is 50/50 and you want to show loyalty to an upperclassman, but the evidence is clear that our more experienced players at WR (and various other positions on the field) are not as good as some of the younger players.Offense could use an overhaul. OL.... mediocre for three years. Next, WR coach not working out as it’s been a downward trend all year. And OC better step it up over these last three games or else. Aside of McSorley’s performance against O$U and Indiana nothing has worked but for the TE over the middle. And they have left the D on the field way to long.
Didn't ever like him, don't care what he says.
probably about as much as I'm concerned about his opinion- or yoursI'm sure he is concerned about you liking him..... Good God.
We are telling recruits that if you are good enough and stay out of trouble you will play. See Slade and BrownWhoever is responsible for not making the decision to put Hamler and Dotson on the field at the same time, instead having them split reps at one spot, definitely needs a reassessment if not reassignment. They are the two best WRs we have and it's not even close.
It was tough to complain about RB substitutions yesterday simply because we didn't have but 35 offensive snaps at one point during the 4th quarter. However, Brown looked pretty good on his snaps where they actually got a back outside. He's got a gear Sanders doesn't have. And what about Slade? What are we telling the current recruits at RB? Kind of worrisome.
Meh. How many position coaches did Harbaugh fire after last year’s game at Beaver Stadium? How may did Meyer fire after last year’s Iowa loss or this year’s loss to Purdue?
it will- the team will look quite different next yearSomething has to change.
I’m confused by this. Is Slade in some sort of trouble? Was Brown previously in trouble and now has worked his way back into Franklin’s good graces? Are neither/both of them good enough? They’ve both barely played . . .We are telling recruits that if you are good enough and stay out of trouble you will play. See Slade and Brown

Harbaugh fired his OC/OL coach (Tim Drevno) after the season.
How much do you think they are going to play when you are in close games and you have an excellent junior tailbackI’m confused by this. Is Slade in some sort of trouble?

Well Alabama played their 5 star third string tailback one series last night and yet they will get another couple this year.So nobody is good enough to play but Sanders? Hard to believe that. Brown got around the edge, something Sanders has failed to do all year, and put his head down and went North/South. I don't consider the last possession "getting to play". Every top 25 program utilizes no less than 2, most 3 RBs. We've been apt to ride one dating back to Sophomore year Barkley. At the beginning of this year, we seemed to have made a change. Allen, before injury, was in a bit, and Slade was getting touches.
As for trouble, what trouble? I've seen nothing but rumors.

If your WR coach isn't responsible for producing WR's who can catch, then who is??It may be just a little too easy to blame the WR coach.

The best players should play, period.

You implied we can tell recruits if they (a) are good enough and (b) stay out of trouble, they will play. Okay — then you said “see Slade and Brown” — neither of whom has played more than a handful of plays all year. Is this in your view “playing” that that will satisfy recruits? Or are you saying they aren’t good enough and/or haven’t stayed out of trouble, and that’s why they’ve barely played?How much do you think they are going to play when you are in close games and you have an excellent junior tailback
What are Corley's accomplishments that would make him a viable candidate for his position at Penn State? Army's daunted Air assault history?Why would a football program recruit wide receivers who can't catch? Those guys were at PSU before Corley got there.
Valid point on Brown but Slade was getting decent playing time for a true freshman before, according to CJF, he got dinged up (in trouble according to rumor)You implied we can tell recruits if they (a) are good enough and (b) stay out of trouble, they will play.

Still confused. Your point is lost on me.
Nah. This.. actually he looks exactly like someone JVP would have hired...,What are Corley's accomplishments that would make him a viable candidate for his position at Penn State? Army's daunted Air assault history?

He's coached WR beforeI’ll take an educated stab at it. Corley was hired initially as a RB coach (also questionable) and then Gattis bailed for Bama. CJF panicked and hired Seider for the open spot based solely on recruiting and the FL connections. Instead of letting Corley go and hiring a WR coach “fiercely loyal” CJF retained him for a position he wasn’t ready for/experienced in.
He's coached WR before
Well as I mentioned he was exactly the kind of guy JVP would have hiredFair enough. Would you still say those credentials warrant the experience for a job at a program trying to be “elite”?
LOL! One of your better rants this weekend. I think the “masturbating muttonheads” may actually be UPenn students...Exactly. Thank you.
How many carries did Sanders get? And some monkey humps want to “divide those up”? LMAO.
Of course, the only time (during the competitive part of the game) that anyone else enterednthe backfield, it was Stevens in the idiotic Ricky Rahne Lion Package .... the one that so many of the muttonheads were masturbating over when it wasn’t being used.
Go figure.
If the Ravens miss the playoffs, which is likely, Engram will most likely be available.Think Bobby Engram is available?
