So many folks have been all over this kid and I kept saying "Give him a chance to develop". The kid showed what he's made of tonight. Outstanding job
i know how much time this kid puts in watching film and staying late working on his game. im so very proud of him. he needed a game like this as much as people been on him. he came up big tonight
Congratulations Bears! Your QB came through big time with some great passes & Pollier is just a beast. Kudos to GMen for fighting back after I don't even know how many penalties and being down by what seemed like a lot, lol. Not an excuse but it hurt not having Isaiah Justice on O & especially D. Power won over speed, both great teams. Good luck rest of the season Bears! Thanks for an exciting game!
i think our qb played great. hes been doubted a lot by even his own fans but that kid has worked his tail off and proved he can do the job when called upon
I'm honestly curious about how RV manages Adkins' workload. The offense seems one dimensonal, and if Adkins has 250+ carries plus playing defense before the regular season ends, his legs may be shot in any playoff games. He seems like he is in phenomenal shape and can take a pounding, but every person wears down. From here on out, RV has no games except Battle where he won't be counted on heavily in second half.
right now hes averging 23 carries for 336 yards and almost 6 tds a game. thats not abnormal for a kid to get 23 carries a game. obviously hes not taking a beating with that many yards and tds. hes not getting tackled much hes jus running.
No they do not. And even if they did the kid who did that to Mac transferred to Union during that season. He did that on his own. Mac was fine thankfully and just destroyed Central by himself that game. The coaches would never tell a kid to do that. No high school coach would teach a kid to be dirty. You need to grow up and become an adult and stop with the ignorant accusations. All coaches are passionate if they care at all but no one wants to see anyone get hurt.
isaiah mcamis pushed mac. the other kid did too but mcamis pushed him while he was in the air. go look at the tape
Huh? Union works out of the spread for the majority of snaps. It's for sure a run first offense, but the T isn't ran nearly as often as the spread.
Last week, Union had much, much more success out of the gun compared to under center. Lee was stacking the box (as every time likely will with a young QB) and when Union went under center it made yards much harder to come by on the ground. I'm not sure I would run the T at all, but I for sure would only run it inside the 10-yard line and maybe short yardage situations on third down. Spacing is huge, if you can create space by formation, I'm in favor. It's easier to run against seven or eight defenders in the box as opposed to nine or ten.
I also believe running out of the gun is a more effective way to get the QB involved in the running attack, it gives your runners more options and better vision lanes while also allowing some true RPO looks. I'd love to see Union try more RPOs, but it's a lot to ask of an inexperienced QB. Union has weapons on the outside, you gotta be able to utilize them fully and it's harder to do out of the T. If you have a productive power run game from the gun, I guess I don't see the need for going under center. It opens up so much more of the field for either rushes or passes. Screens, intermediate passing routes, the deep ball, PA passing, etc...are all available from the gun. It's much harder to do some of that stuff from the T, especially with a young QB.
This has been the BigWinners unnecessary rant of the week.
You have Gibson, Lester, Hall, and Bunch. I was primarily referring to Bunch. Of course, I don't know what Travis' mindset is for a primary formation this year, but if it's going to be run heavy out of the T with an occasional pass then Gibson or Lester would make a great 4th run option.
If it's going to be spread whatsoever then I think Bunch is the choice.
I may have missed it, but I don't recall Hall getting any reps.
8 looked good. Hope he gets a shot, and definitely agree on the backfield. It will be battering ram after battering ram coming through that line IF they block halfway decent.
i thought gibson done ok. didnt turn the ball over and made some nice throws and good decisions. offensive line needs work but as was stated center was out so maybe that will fix some things. defensively the secondary worries me. they need work and didnt tackle very well. hopefully we see improvement next week. overall not bad for first time out
If the “lack of institutional control” began before b-ball season began how could he be held liable? Seemingly nobody wants to find out the answer to that.
Thats the whole problem here. You can’t expect any coach to have control over kids at all times. It’s not possible, students were disciplined. Not sure what else could be done. Holding any coach responsible for this is absurd.
The only people who could want Moore removed are either A) Without knowledge of what happened B) Wanting some unknown political move C) Never want the basketball program to win or D) Still holding some grudge over Pat Jervis not getting the job when the school opened.
Let the man coach and move on, if something else happens handle it. One issue that possibly carried over from the fall over an entire career is not worthy of removal.
i dont know when it began thats why i said if what ive heard is true then they really have no choice but to remove him. i dont really care one way or the other. i dont know all the facts. i was giving my opinion on what ive heard.
Why? He didn't do anything to anyone. If he wasn't aware of any wrongdoing, why should he be punished?
if he wasnt aware of that stuff goin on with only 8 kids on the team then thats why he shouldnt keep his job. whats the language they use in college lack of institutional control. thats poor supervision if he didnt know
