Jeffrey Thomas? Redshirting.

Is he hurt? Or is the thinking that DD is the alternative deep threat?
Redshirting

I believe there are a number of things they want to see from him off the field before he's ready to play. Best to redshirt this year. I am disappointed we haven't seen Spruce or McCulloch get targeted more since it's easier to march down the field with a succession of 8 yard gains on possession catches than 4 yards at a time by running Powell constantly.
Serious, Clark? Where have you been hiding? Jeff has issues requiring the redshirt. We may be lucky if we even see him next year.
Damn fellas, good coaches we have, horses we don't. Oregon kicks our ass, y'all freak out. U can scheme all day, talent will take over eventually. Mac being called a wussie is laughable to me. Alot of wussies call for an opening onside when they think they can beat someone. The guy is doing everything he can, what do u want?

We do have good coaches and things will get better, the only one freaking out is you cause I said our OC should have gone for a couple of those 4th downs. They'll get this thing turned around.

It sure as he'll isn't MMacs fault. We can't compete other than a few players. We frustrated the hell out of them, and frankly that's the only victory we will have today. Such a better game than last week which really pissed me off. We would have won last week if it was a home game but sometimes, like,today, moral victories are all you can get. We need playmakers and for those like me who disregard stars to a point can see the difference. The buffs need a dual threat QB to scheme against and until we get that difference maker, it's all a moot point. Hopefully sefo is that player.
Down and distance, pace, all those things account for what happens. As for as who calls for going for it on 4th, it absolutely matters. HC is the title for a coach that is one. CU has one.

Haven't read the thread so I don't know if anyone has mentioned two things. The first is other than the first quarter it seemed every first down call was a handoff up the middle which went nowhere. Gotta mix it up, OC, especially in the red zone. The second is I'm wondering why we don't throw screen passes. I don't remember one and it seems we have some guys that could make that work. DD and Atkins in particular. It would slow down the rush and get guys with speed in open space. I though CU made some plays, but they had too many unforced errors, drops, etc and UO is too good.

Seriously? Do your hw doucher.
Never said Denver won the Bowl but they went toe to toe with the eventual champ and won a few titles like 2 years later. Damn know your **** before u speak it.
The issue is whether MacIntyre can rectify the main issues on offense. The RBs are not very good and the TEs are worse. That directly affects third down offense and red zone offense. Those issues are not going to magically disappear with new schemes.
Meaning the Young team dumbass, Shanny's first year.
Hence we don't have the horses, he's installing attitude, schemes, etc.. That only goes so far, we need talent and plenty of it.
what the hell are you talking about?
