ALPHA DOG: QB LUKE FAHEY
It's always kind of cliche to give the Alpha Dog (top performer) following a 7v7 tournament to the winning team's quarterback but in this case, Fahey was more than deserving. When you're standing behind him in the pocket and can see how quickly he's processing what he's seeing, how quickly he gets through progressions and how early and on time he throws, it's next level.

The Ohio State commit rarely misses and has an advanced feel for how to play the position. He never looks nervous or flustered and orchestrated a text book 2-minute drill in the Diablos exciting semi-final win over a talented Los Angeles (Calif.) Cathedral team, throwing the game winning touchdown on the final play of the game.

A word we use a lot with Fahey is, 'surgical,' and we'll keep coming back to it because that's exactly what he looks like as a quarterback. He's able to carve up any defense with his precision passes, can make every throw on the field and he has really stepped up as a leader this off-season as well.

Seeing what an unpopular and unprofessional trainwreck Desmond is, why on earth would they bring on their own version of him.

The only reason I said almost is because I offer the one and only plausible explanation in the very next sentence

It’s not a rational explanation, but someone being in your head is never rational

Hopefully playoff Day is here to stay and getting over the national title hump will keep him from going into a stupid john cooper esque shell in The Game.

To your point, how do teams practice all year for one way and then have to adjust immediately for another set of rules come playoff time.

This reeks of somebody influential complaining loudly in the off season and my guess would be Steve Sarkesian, Hugh Freeze or Josh Heupel

There's no almost. The entire game plan was totally inexplicable. We refused to attack their weakness and played into their one strength pretty much all day long. I will never not be bitter about that game. They were in Day's head, okay; but why didn't Chip, his supposed mentor, talk some fucking sense into him? Ugh.

Let’s be clear about this

The cheaters won in 2024 because Day made numerous (almost) inexplicable coaching decisions

Day made those decisions because scUM was in his head

scUM got into his head by cheating for 3 years
