It's all turning to ashes.Agreed. Our trash heap smells more like burning couches than burning cow ****.
The recent answers on JuJu, Brewster, Shumer, CF, Lewis are concerning to me.Yeah, the presser was borderline testy.
Another weird flex from Surveyor that only his dumb ass is laughing at.Nebraska wants to welcome the Deon Sanders lead Colorado Buffalos to the race to the bottom of the trash heap.
I guess when the last win against CU came in during the recovery from the Great Recession, weird flex is all you might have when **** talking to the fanbase.Another weird flex from Surveyor that only his dumb ass is laughing at.
in the presser, CP basically dismissed the entire idea of a TE. Brewster needs to go get a real job. His skills are wasted at CU.The recent answers on JuJu, Brewster, Shumer, CF, Lewis are concerning to me.
This might be one of Prime’s best moves. He plays the guys who meet his very high standards even it it means sacrificing a win. It is a strategy that will pay dividends in the long term.Another weird flex from Surveyor that only his dumb ass is laughing at.
The problem we have is that defenses only need to rush 3 or 4 against our 5 OL and 2 will almost immediately get to our QB. It’s that bad.When you only have 5 guys blocking against 6 guys coming of course your OL is going to look terrible. In this scheme the QB holds the ball to long, hence all the sacks and pressure he is seeing. The offensive scheme needs to be changed and a TE or RB needs to be in there to chip and/or block where needed. If you are going to run 5 WRs out on routes then the QB must get rid of the ball very quickly like he started doing at the end of the game during garbage time when OSU was playing a soft zone and leaving everything underneath open.
I thought about this and I think you're right. It's just frustrating when you're losing. I also wonder sometimes if his standards are attainable for a lot of players. It seems like there are certain players that have a very short leash.This might be one of Prime’s best moves. He plays the guys who meet his very high standards even it it means sacrificing a win.

I think his point was that if our TEs can’t block, they don’t add to the offense, and he would simply prefer to have WRs instead, because we have some good ones.in the presser, CP basically dismissed the entire idea of a TE. Brewster needs to go get a real job. His skills are wasted at CU.
Don't bother. This clown is a 100% trollingThe problem we have is that defenses only need to rush 3 or 4 against our 5 OL and 2 will almost immediately get to our QB. It’s that bad.
Most of the time, Sheuder only has time to look for a 2-3 yard hook pattern, or one behind the LOS, and hope for yards after catch. (Occasionally we can hit a short cross.) But because the defense knows we will have no time to throw, they are running downhill at those quick dump down passes, so we are getting tackled immediately.
If we brought in more blockers, we’d still be facing mismatched numbers in the secondary, because we simply cannot block one on one. With our TEs, we can’t even block 6 against 4 successfully.
So.. we go to 7 blockers…against 4-5 rushers…. We have 3 receivers against 6 defenders… that’s 2 on 1 for each.
This is why an OL must be able to handle 1x1. When they can’t, the numbers simple don’t work without a talented, running QB. Even then.
Harrison has added to the offense quite a bit this season in terms of catches and TDs. CP should recognize the value in the position.I think his point was that if our TEs can’t block, they don’t add to the offense, and he would simply prefer to have WRs instead, because we have some good ones.
This is all well put.I am as frustrated and disappointed as anyone but a few things to keep in mind.
1. This team was 1-11 last year and easily the worst P5 team in the nation, close to the worst BCS team. This year we have won 4 and at least been in the game in most of the others. This is a huge turn around.
2. At Jackson State his first season record was 4-3 (shortened by Covid) with a team that was nowhere near as bad comparatively before he got there than this one was.
3. Despite our struggles we still are at least getting recruiting interest from players who will be substantial upgrades to what we have. The momentum for improvement has not stopped.
4. Mistakes are being and will be made. This is a guy who is in his first year coaching at the BCS level and his 4th year overall of college coaching. He had no college time as an assistant to prepare like most coaches do.
The biggest fault so far in his time here has been his failure in lifting our talent levels on the interior lines, both offense and defense. Yes coaching could be better but when guys are run over or run past on virtually every play coaching isn't much help. People talk about a short passing game but that doesn't work without linemen who get out and make a block. Our guys can't make a block when the opponent comes to them much less go find and make a block.
Next steps are critical. Get through the rest of this season then in the off-season we need to see some significant line talent come in, both transfers and HS. Obviously we would love to get 5* types but even competent P5 quality players would be a major step up.
And like everything else Prime is learning how to manage a staff. We do need to see some changes made in the staff as well.
I think we are likely too to see some unexpected departures both players and coaches. Prime is who he is and a part of that is his intensity and insistence on doing things his way to his expectations. It's common for people to think they were ready for that then to realize that they aren't and move on.
It is my experience that players have “hay I’m the barn” when it comes to mistakes on the field.I thought about this and I think you're right. It's just frustrating when you're losing. I also wonder sometimes if his standards are attainable for a lot of players. It seems like there are certain players that have a very short leash.
I agree with that, but the comparison HCP was making is that in the balance of assessing who is on the field, he thinks another WR is more of an offensive threat. If our TEs aren’t helpful blockers, than … why?Harrison has added to the offense quite a bit this season in terms of catches and TDs. CP should recognize the value in the position.
He’s also a WR converted into a TE. It’s just a fact that to be effective a TE group has to be able to block and catch.Harrison has added to the offense quite a bit this season in terms of catches and TDs. CP should recognize the value in the position.
A P5 HC shouldn't be learning game management that should be mastered in high schoolThis is all well put.
People seem to assume coaches are finished products when they are hired. In many cases, like ours, the coach is hired for his potential and talent, just like players are recruited. HCP has a huge upside as a head coach, and it’s perfectly reasonable (and should be expected) for him to need some time to grow and develop at this level.
No one can take the worst team in CF to “dominance” in a year. Just no way.
If it weren’t for decades pf PTSD, and the surprising hope HCP brought, I think there’d be more patience. There’s just been so much pain here for so long.
Really? Does a weekend go by when people aren’t questioning game management decisions made by at least one NFL coach? By your logic, shouldn’t they “know it all” by the time they are NFL HCs?A P5 HC shouldn't be learning game management that should be mastered in high school
YesBetter clock management skills, Prime or Nathaniel Hackett?
There's levels to this - Prime has made a number of glaring game management mistakes that should not happen at this level because they're fundamentalReally? Does a weekend go by when people aren’t questioning game management decisions made at least one NFL coach? By your logic, shouldn’t they “know it all” by the time they are NFL HCs?
If they can't block, they're either not being coached correctly or they should have been told to leave last winter. Makes me wonder about Brewster.I think his point was that if our TEs can’t block, they don’t add to the offense, and he would simply prefer to have WRs instead, because we have some good ones.

Deion still believes, the players who will be part of moving us ahead still believe.Do you believe ???? The problem is everyone from the Media all the way to Deion himself hyped this team up early on which led to the lofty expectations. Now they have to live with the consequences of those actions.
Who gives a **** about the overhype from media in his first season when he leads us to playoffs in 2-3 years?Do you believe ???? The problem is everyone from the Media all the way to Deion himself hyped this team up early on which led to the lofty expectations. Now they have to live with the consequences of those actions.
