To be clear, I do not find fault with our TE coach for the room that he inherited. But he has stood pat.

Thank you for mansplaining what the TE position generally does and how it’s used
All you have to do is look at Shannon Sharpe who redefined the TE position on the way to the HOF.
He was a very effective blocker but was not the classic dominating blocker, much of the time he just very effectively got in the way of a would be tackler.
Meanwhile he was effectively a third WR with the added bonus of using his size to make room to catch the ball.
If the Buffs can find a guy who presents a receiving option and makes an effort to block they will be fine.
I don’t disagree with you, just wanted to add that note since I have some color

Plus it's odd to learn social media handles instead of names watching the videos.
This fall we'll be watching the games, my wife will say "wow who made that play" and I'll say proudly "honey that's @the_duce24!"
I am absolutely agreeing with you. I made the Kelce reference to show that you can replace the TE with a big receiver. Especially with a good QB. The lack of a great TE would be much more detrimental to a weaker QB. My opinion is that we have a strong QB.
He landed Traore and Malachi Coleman. Traore was not a fit for what they wanted to do and Coleman was offered more NIL at the eleventh hour to stay at hometown Nebraska.
I don’t disagree with you, but he’s known as a plus recruiter. I think there is a lot of negative recruiting about this offense and the TE usage, which is all legitimate, so they need to prove it’s a position that will be part of the passing game if they want to bring in recruits.
all i did was cut and paste.
Sorry, I gotta say it bc it’s been bugging me - the color choice for the words needs to be swapped.
A lot of mistakes can be made based on small sample sizes.
It's worth looking at his history and give him a little longer to show what he can do here.
People rightfully point to him coaching Kyle Pitts, but Florida actually used their TEs. To your point, look at his recruiting history.

Social media handles are only for practice jerseys. Regular names will be on game jerseys. This is what Prime did at JSU also.
Film don't lie. And like Mr. Grossman, some of us at times have personal knowledge as to the attitude and abilities of certain players.
AND that he’s still waiting for a decision…. That’s BS.
I definitely came into the year with some of the highest expectations for coach Brewster. As a good recruiter, it’s hard to know how much credit he probably should get under the radar for helping bring in guys for other rooms. Fwiw, Coleman is exclusively working at WR for Nebraska which I’m sure was part of what he was looking for in his recruitment. But it’s still been a bit of a bummer. That’s part of why I mentioned that hearing coach Lewis praise Harrison has me more excited than hearing coach Brewster do it.
On the flipside, I’d say I was most concerned about coach Hart, coach Williams, and coach Bartolone and all 3 have very positive early returns where they all completely changed the look and depth of their position groups. That’s part of why coach Brewster’s misses are so glaring - everyone else has exceeded or met expectations (so far of course, will need to see it play out in real games).

PA guy, read the room.

I will be Westside for a couple of games and will loudly talk about the brilliance of the social media jerseys.
