I’m watching the saints and bears game. Montez is Mitchell Trubisky in a nut shell. Poor decision making, always looks confused, bad leader.
Certanily hope that's true for his sake, but that would mean a helluva lot of WRs in the first, and the Buffs aren't doing him any favors.After the combine, Viska won’t be around in the 2nd.
I root for them. I am in "show me" mode a this point however.I 100% support Coach Tucker!
He has 5 full years of my support
I expect him to do everything he can to win.
He will recruit relentlessly
He will train relentlessly
He will make coaching changes as needed
He will take the Coach Saban lessons and we will be back.
I thought this year had promise
I still want to go to a bowl
I want to beat USC and Utah bad
These players are Buffs and deserve our support.
My beef is a balance between coaches pulling the right levers and players buying in and executing. That connection is waning, and both sides have blame. It must be fixed.
Go Buffs, please help me smile again
DK Metcalf was a first rounder for crying out loud. Viska will impress the scouts and get himself paid.Certanily hope that's true for his sake, but that would mean a helluva lot of WRs in the first, and the Buffs aren't doing him any favors.
I'm ready for the Mel Tucker era to end!
After another performance that was spot on reminiscent of the Embree era, he pointed to two missed field goals as issues (one of which was 52 yarder into the wind on a rainy day). He simply doesn't get it. Yeah, he has a great demeanor but he and his coaches are no better than the Embree era.
I'm not interested in waiting 4 years for him to realize that his offensive Coordinator is garbage. Great coaches get it done, teach the players and get results. Losing coaches lose. It's apparent where he falls, particularly blaming a kicker and quarterback for a defensive that gives up 50 points to average teams. James Stefano isn't the problem, the coaches are absolutely the issue, when they aren't wise enough to realize that the Buffs WR's can play 5 deep and outplay any DB combo in the Pac12. Instead, they call pass protect packages using only 3 WR's, leaving sub par TE's on the field instead of elite WR's. Very disappointing.
DK Metcalf was the very last pick in the 2nd round and was the 9th WR drafted (64th overall).DK Metcalf was a first rounder for crying out loud. Viska will impress the scouts and get himself paid.
What TScheckler said. Biggest problem for Viska is the deep WR class.DK Metcalf was a first rounder for crying out loud. Viska will impress the scouts and get himself paid.
Deep in 2019 too. The combine (for better or for worse) really makes a big difference for teams.What TScheckler said. Biggest problem for Viska is the deep WR class.
Stand corrected. I thought he was a 1.DK Metcalf was the very last pick in the 2nd round and was the 9th WR drafted (64th overall).
BoooooooI'm ready for the Mel Tucker era to end!

exactly where I am. I want to see improvement and as of right now we are regressing. More game tape? Coaches still trying to figure out the players skill sets?? When I see coaches walking into the same scenarios at different schools and turn it around rather quickly is what's frustrating. At the beginning of the season we were all saying win the ones we should (failed there) win a couple that we didn't expect (still a chance) but it is fading looking ahead on the schedule.I root for them. I am in "show me" mode a this point however.
Where’s Haiku Buff? I need a condensed version.I 100% support Coach Tucker!

I work with four Baylor grads. Nothing like having them spike the ball the last 3 weeks, and last year too.exactly where I am. I want to see improvement and as of right now we are regressing.

I was even good after we hit 3-1, I figured we'd struggle on defense but always be entertaining on offense. Not so much.Recruiting is the focus. Some of Mikes guys got too comfortable. Recruit over them. Recruit!
When we beat ****braska again I allowed hope to enter my war torn fandom. Damn that false hope!

perfect example. baylor gets hit with the Art Briles scandal, followed by barely able to recruit and only a couple seasons later they are rolling. I know everyone on here hates baylor, but obviously they can overcome sucking pretty fast. Its not a weak schedule or teams they are beating either. I just don't get it.I work with four Baylor grads. Nothing like having them spike the ball the last 3 weeks, and last year too.
They are located in a recruiting hot bed, and they didn't torpedo their entire program/AD like CU did, even though they should have.perfect example. baylor gets hit with the Art Briles scandal, followed by barely able to recruit and only a couple seasons later they are rolling.

Rhule and that staff have been together a while. They can recruit.They are located in a recruiting hot bed, and they didn't torpedo their entire program/AD like CU did, even though they should have.
The only way this post would be more depressing would be if you said you worked for four Baylor grads.I work with four Baylor grads. Nothing like having them spike the ball the last 3 weeks, and last year too.
I grew up right down the road in Georgetown. Waco is a dump and really weird vibe.They are located in a recruiting hot bed, and they didn't torpedo their entire program/AD like CU did, even though they should have.
Honestly, after watching the Jets game, I think Darnold and montez is the better comparison.I’m watching the saints and bears game. Montez is Mitchell Trubisky in a nut shell. Poor decision making, always looks confused, bad leader.
