I have not had a chance to rewatch, did Cormani earn a starting job?He looked like a baby Cris Carter
McClain looked great outside of the first play where he looked lost a bit.
Ward had a major impact in the 4th but was a disaster in the first 3 quarters.
Awful
Still recovering. He's not 100% there yet.
Who knows what CP will do. I feel like he asserted himself as the clear CB3 on this team with his play in the game, and might quickly become CB2 (behind Travis), but CP has been critical of his effort and focus in meetings and practice.I have not had a chance to rewatch, did Cormani earn a starting job?
You can tell JB went to Cal
Prime said that he’s going to stay “up his (McClain’s) butt” about details because he loves Cormani. Very obvious that the talent is there given how Cormani played against some nice WRs. If his maturation process accelerates, he has first rounder upside.Who knows what CP will do.

Deion is not budging on 1. He has to do work in practice and film study. As for Miller, he's definitely starting. The other two suck so bad in the game, you have no other optionI have not had a chance to rewatch, did Cormani earn a starting job?

I think Xavier is a good college 2 and great 3. Horn is an nice 3, good 4, and great 5.Deion is not budging on 1. He has to do work in practice and film study. As for Miller, he's definitely starting. The other two suck so bad in the game, you have no other option
I was talking about Antonio and Dawson, not Weaver and HornI think Xavier is a good college 2 and great 3. Horn is an nice 3, good 4, and great 5.
It's a world of difference whether those guys are covered by a CB1, 2, 3 or 4. Even more dramatic if your WR1 is a guy like Travis who commands both a CB1 and safety help on most plays.
I really look forward to seeing this offense if we found a little something in the run game, Omarion is the truth this year to be WR2/3, and then we've got Xavier as WR2/3 and then either Horn or Mikey being covered by a CB4 or Safety.
If Shedeur has the protection to get to his 2nd & 3rd reads with that, there's no way to hold this offense below 30.
Gotcha.I was talking about Antonio and Dawson, not Weaver and Horn
Ugh, that play had me screaming at the TV. No idea what he was seeing on that one.Agreed, but I will say that the 3rd play of the game was an RB screen to Hankerson that caught USC completely by surprise. It should have gone for big yards, but Hankerson for some reason cut inside away from all his blocks and gained one yard.
Sometimes it's not about the playcalling as much as it's about the execution.
When Travis gets back, that's one of the best CB tandems in college FB already. Watching Cormani cover Rice in the end zone was a thing of beauty. He's so talented, hope this was enough of a taste for him to get his **** straight.Prime said that he’s going to stay “up his (McClain’s) butt” about details because he loves Cormani.

I don't think his sh*t was as bad as people think. I think it's more that Coach Prime is playing the long game by coaching him harder than most because he sees the potential and owes it to him to coach him tough so he becomes all he's capable of becoming. My suspicion is that he's been our 3rd best CB on the field for weeks.When Travis gets back, that's one of the best CB tandems in college FB already.

I don't think his ability on the field has been an issue at all. It's all the other stuff that he'll need to get to the next level.I don't think his sh*t was as bad as people think.

O. Miller PAC 12 Freshman Player of the Week. Congrats young man!
I agree, not saying Dylan Edwards wasn't impressive on week 1. A lot of what he did seemed like you can scheme against it. With Miller, it's a lot of 1v1. You gotta double and that opens things up for the other WRs and the OL. That's more impressive to meWhat I love about those highlights is there were no pedestrain, anybody could’ve done that type of plays. A couple great runs after the catch, and 3 truly amazing receptions with outstanding hands and body control.
This. Hankerson doesn't know how to read holes. There were 4-5 run plays where if he reads the hole correctly he would've turned a 3 yard gain into a 12 yard gain.Agreed, but I will say that the 3rd play of the game was an RB screen to Hankerson that caught USC completely by surprise.

Harrell has lost some of his shine for me of late. Where's MacCaskill, Smoke gone "in a puff of...", trying too hard to run Dyl between the tackle, and Hankerson looks slow and can't read holes. Definitely the biggest disappointment unit-wise for me thus far.There were several plays where I actually wondered if they had any idea how to set up their blocks.
Yes. many in our section were blown away by how bad the field looked. The field crew better get it's sh!t together or we'll be playing on dirt by the end of the month.Anyone notice how bad the field conditions were? Just watched the game on TV after attending in person. Did the ****ing Dead play on Friday night? Not good. Big chunks of turf missing.

I think the team practiced on the north half of the field for a couple days before the game and it looked torn up.Yes. many in our section were blown away by how bad the field looked. The field crew better get it's sh!t together or we'll be playing on dirt by the end of the month.
