Is Gustav here this Spring? Is he practicing at TE?
But Jones has only been on campus for 1 year, not 4.Don't redshirt anyone who can help you win this year.
If an upperclassman can't help you win, make sure he plays enough to move him out in 4 years instead of redshirting him.
It's actually pretty simple.
Regarding 2020 with our TEs, it's about going in with Poplawski and Russell while seeing how many snaps the young guys who come in will be able to earn away from them.
Pretty sure he is practicing as OLBIs Gustav here this Spring? Is he practicing at TE?
Dude, it was established when he actually got here and practiced last year, that the potential wasn't there. He's a stiff. We saw good things on film, but what was on his film is all he can do. No fluidity, poor route running, below average blocker, Can't bend to make tough catches. He's a stiff.
Several fundamental things “wrong” with Jones. Move on.
How do you fix effort, football IQ, stiff hips and inability to catch ball below his waist?
And you don't recruit JUCOs as development projects. You recruit JUCOs to plug holes for immediate help. If they can't do that, move them trough and out.But Jones has only been on campus for 1 year, not 4.
Everyone can get "better" under the right coach. Question is how much better and how long will it take.I'll stop beating the horse, but nearly all of those things are "coachable". Not sure anyone here can state 100% that Jones doesn't have effort to get better under the right coach.

Yes. Absolutely. I’ve seen him practice three times. I’ll watch again on 4/27.so the recruiting of this kid was a bust.

Macintyre would have canceled the whole spring day with what you just said above.Can we really play a normal game effectively? I only say this because there are only 8 Defensive Linemen total on the roster right now, and Sami does not need to play a ton of snaps yet on his knee.
Seems like it would be smart to play the first half normal with a running clock, then play the second half as only Offense versus Defense in specific situations, starting positions, and timing.

His quote in the recent Athletic article said he is enjoying getting his fingers dirty as an assistant. I guess money is pretty filthy.Yes he would have! I almost expect Tucker and Brumbaugh to fill in on DL for the game! FCMM interview at Ole Miss spring game was lifeless! He is eating humble pie (with 7 large in his pocket)
Nope, I believe you uncovered a Nub spy.Is Kenny Bell helping coach WRs? Looks like he is in the background here:

"We won't put anyone on the field that's not going to play physical football, because you can't play football like that," he said. "I've told these guys every day, 'If you're physical and you'll run and you'll hit, you'll probably find a way on the football field. If you don't, no matter how talented you are, if you won't hit, if you're not physical, then you will not play.' That's just our program.
"There's only one way to play the game of football and that's just all-out, physical football."
Tucker was pleased with the physicality of Wednesday's practice — at least in the early going.
"We weren't as physical towards the end, so we need to work on our conditioning and our mental disposition at the end of practice to strain and finish, but I thought we made progress today in terms of being physical," he said.
I so want to be one of those teams that's so physical it becomes a betting rule of thumb to take the points against anyone that had to play CU the week before.I get the sense teams won't be looking forward to coming to Boulder during Tucker's tenure.
That last clip didn’t go so well for our starting NT...
Good thing in a real game, you cannot tackle the defender.That last clip didn’t go so well for our starting NT...
