Prediction: Scott Will not Transfer

I'm not posting on the other thread, but I respectfully disagree with its premise.

In my humble and informed opinion, Darrell Scott is a buff, will remain a buff, and it's insulting to keep assuming he can't think for himself just because his uncle transferred.

He's definitely frustrated.

Things could change for him now that Hansen is in. The offense gets more run oriented now.
 
Well they finally put in Hansen, maybe they will start giving him the damn ball? My dad watched the game with me and when DS had that return said watch off to the bench. Well, i was right. Give the guy the ****ing football, do him and Hawk not get along or what? Even if they dont, thats no excuse. Put the guy on the ****ing field please. We have been waiting for this guy to break out forever and he has how many td's here? Like 1? Thats a joke.

I'm hoping so. I heard Kiesau talking before the game on KOA and he was talking about how we would get Scott & Stewart carries all game long (even if it's 3 yards, cloud of dust type of stuff). That gave me hope. I couldn't help but feel tonight that Scott HAS to be frustrated that he's not getting a bunch of carries (and yes, Stewart looked good tonight, and with the way our o-line gives up penetration, Stewart is the better choice back there, but you know he's frustrated).

Hope he wants to stick around. I still feel like he could be a beast behind our line once they figure it out
 
Our oline doesnt get push, thats obvious. I think we should start zoning. Get a body on a body and let the back work, plus its not that difficult to pick up.
 
well i never said he cant make his own mind up ...im saying if he wants to play football he will need to go to any other team to play i would if i was him im a true buff but why waste him with 4 carries a game...btw stewart wouldnt start at any other team in the big 12...well mabe cause they would tell him north n south not west n east he waste to much time moving backwards and sideways to only get back to line he did that alot tonite...hawkachoo wont play him cause hes beast!!!

Stewart would start or receive PLENTY of playing time alot of places in the Big 12.

Not my intent. I just didn't see a point in bumping and adding to the thread that contradicts this one.

Whether or not Darrell is frustrated with carries -- and he hasn't said -- transferring would not be easy. Where ever he would go, he'd have to sit out a year. He's already played two. He has two years left at best to play. He needs to learn that at college level, you can't just run into the line and push your way through like in high school. The guys are bigger and stronger. He needs to make a few more moves and consider running to the side.

He could be very good and we'll see how he is played next week, and with a new QB, too.
 
I heard Maurice Drew say something that fits DScott to a T and what he needs to learn. Slow to the hole, fast through it. That is the patience to the hole ive been talking about. He figures that out, sky is the limit.

Yes, I think he just needs to adjust to college play and his talent will shine. And that has to happen, no matter which school he is at.

So I hope (and predict) he'll work out the timing here, not explore greener pastures.
 
I'm no RB expert, but waiting patiently behind our OL is going to result in 3 yard losses. The fact of the matter is when he has received carries he has had absolutely nowhere to go. Speedy had plenty of that tonight and even he couldn't squirt around to the side.
 
These delayed draws are not helping us. With a light, quick OL, I don't think you sit back there and wait for hole to open up. You snap, hand off, and use momentum to get you 3-8 yards every play.

By the way, if Woody Hayes, Bo Schembechler, or Lou Holtz were alive they could explain this better than me. Point being, it ain't new stuff.

Huh? Holtz is still alive? Oh yeah, I wish he was dead.
 
I don't think Miller is all that quick, our counter plays with pulling guards seem to result in negative yardage more often that not. I really wish they'd try some toss sweeps even though Texas would probably tear those up with their speed.
 
Damn guys, why do u think we should go to a zone running game? it isnt that hard to hit the guy across from you. You dont have to be fast or all quick, engage the guy and let him go where he wants, for those that say what about slanting or shooting gaps, dont matter. You got a body on a body and u let the back do the work, u dont need a huge push. Counters and Traps are way more complicated. One cut downhill. It works, 2 Bowls dont lie.
 
Another thing, why the hell are we running counters with a guy that doesnt have patience to the hole? That is not a good idea. thats a Speedy play not a DS play, tellin yall, he is a straight line back. Its not really a surprise he hasnt been productive here when we get no push up front. The guy is a north south back, not east west. If you try to make him that, ur gonna get 5 carries for 10 yards.

This is the gung-ho, Darrell Scott is a buff, yay! thread.

You might have been posting in the dark, smelly musty dungeon of depressed fans losing all hope.

Stay here. We have cookies.

...seriously why would Scott transfer DURING the season??!! He may transfer, but I hope not.

He IS GOOD! Look, just Stewart has done well doesn't mean that Scott sucks. He gets no holes to run through. He doesn't ever get to run consecutive plays. It's not his fault that we have no blocking during the few plays he's in there. The kid is good, and it's up to the coaching staff to get him ready, teach him what to do, push his body so he improves physically, etc.
