2013 TSUN Football News

It's like they're seriously overcompensating for the rodriguez era. They're trying to be the polar opposite. They're obviously trying to model themselves after bammer, which, in theory, is a good strategy. Unfortunately, they're too dumb to pull it off. I guess they don't realize that when bammer has been really good, they've had playmakers at WR to go along with their smashmouth style....Julio Jones, Amari Cooper. They mention Junior Hemingway as an archetype. Junior Hemingway. I mean, come on, he was decent...but that's the guy you're propping up as your example? :lol:

What they're gonna end up doing is being the same plodding team they were for the last 6-7 years Carr was there, which led them directly to the rodriguez disaster.

None is known for his speed, and none is ranked among the nation's 50 best receivers according to Rivals. Dukes is considered the best wideout in the class, ranked 60th in the country.
Jones is 6-foot-2, York is 6-3 and Dukes is 6-5. Include 2012 receiver signees Amara Darboh (6-2) and Jehu Chesson (6-2), and Michigan has added five wideouts the past two years who each stand at least 6-2.

Maybe tSUN recruit Wilton Speight, ranked by 247 as the 29th best Pro QB is good at throwing jump balls?

I am not seeing any ridiculous mismatches here:
Conley is 6' 2".
Apple is 6' 0".
Burrows is 6' 2".
Bell is 6' 1".

I am not sure what anyone's vertical leap is.

Larry Fitzgerald is 6' 3".

I have heard that speed kills.

If you cannot create separation it is going to be pretty hard for the QB to throw the ball to you and even harder for you to catch it. And if you are
fortunate enough to catch it you will be tackled immediately. Yep, that's the strategy ALL elite teams have.

Are these guys for real?

:osu:

if you build your offense around a power run game, the play action will help in getting defenses to bite and cause some separation. Not saying we don't need some burners to force defenses to respect the deep ball, but at least they are getting taller on the outside. Just my IMO.

Unless the defense isn't biting on the play action because they've stuffed the running game...

Vincent Smith isn't back there any more. I like our chances going forward.....at least once the O-line gets a little older. Lot of youth on next seasons line, and in the backfield probably. My guess right now, 9-10 wins next season, with Gardners 5th year of eligibility (assuming he gets the redshirt) being the team that wins it's first B1G title in awhile.

But who knows.

You mean Braxton's Senior season, when Meyer's last two recruiting classes begin to have their real impact? Good luck with that. :lol:

If you can't run the ball you're fucked.
