Aiken looked like he gets after it on defense, but also looked lost on the glass. Koloko looked like he owned the paint and Kerr looked like he did last year, not a shut down guy but gives good effort and takes a ton of charges (I think he took 3 in a 20 minute game). I can tell you who is not our b...

You can only feast for so long on last year's leftovers. So far our new coach has whiffed on every major recruit (Sharpe, Tyty, Kaluma Bradley). All of the talk about systems and process won't matter if he can't make it happen on the recruiting trail. I honestly wouldn’t expect that until the ‘23 c...

Thats a huge miss there. Hope Choo is right that he has some secret back up plans.

I thought Kim was a Sr.? He is only a Jr.?

So you think Bal is going to contribute in the next two years? I do not from what I have seen. I believe the staff intends to make him a contributor in the next two years. What have you seen Gronk? I have watched several game videos and from what I have watched he seems further away than Joel Ayayi...

I do not know better apparently and not sure why I should, that is Tommy's way from what I have seen with some Euro guys he is keeping tabs on as well I am sure.

Speaking for myself Miller gave lots of hope with his roster load up in the offseason, and then disappointed with actual results and style Lloyd has gave no hope in roster composition to this point (due to going after very few guys when have clear holes and whiffing on those he did), hopefully actua...

All your PG hopes rest on a guy with the lowest PER on the team is much much improved and able to play 40 mpg at the point since there is no backup where PG is their natural position. I hope you are right, but I will wait until I see it before I assume we are all good there based on the words of a g...

You elaborated my point that the play calling and coaching are the cause of this loss much better then I could. Fisch is clearly not the greatest game planner or play caller, Sumlin ran for 431 yards against NAU with the same OL. Fisch decided to go into the game in which our QB's clearly suck and c...

gronk4heisman

We have also seen his handling of the Sean Miller FBI/NOA saga as well as his lack of promotion for the team and conference in all aspects, the Kevin Sumlin hire, the fiasco at the first home game at the gates, etc.

gronk4heisman

I personally could care less about how the whole hiring and firing, I am just not as excited for this season because everything around Tommy is boring. If we improve and win though, all of that means nothing in the end.

gronk4heisman

Unfortunately he is simply cover for the man who is in charge of firing him so he is unlikely to go anywhere until he has a sword to fall on for Bob Rob who is more concerned with ego than results. With all the hires they have made though the sword may come sooner rather than later.

Can he still play? He is a fifth year senior who has already transferred once. He could be a decent stop gap until Fifita or someone in the following class is ready.

gronk4heisman

That same Oline was able to average over 160 yds/pg and 4.5 ypc the last two years and added years of maturity and body development. So there is that story to try and spin as well.

gronk4heisman

No doubt Joiner would pass on that, being that the OL is so bad they can't protect the QB. Get his less at WR. Last I read, Fisch said Cruz wasn't getting any snaps in practice, so we even put him on their as an "OR"? He was getting scout team reps last week, but sounds like he moved up and Plummer...

Is this just people trying to give Jedd Lasso a pass on this year? I’m sure if you asked him he’d say thanks but no thanks. Or at least I hope he would. Lord knows I wouldn’t want fans to excuse my failings by making up fairy tales about NAU having more talent than us. He pretty much leaned into th...

Being a garbage team is what we hope to improve to by the end of the year, we aren't there yet.

Again.....Arizona has a lack of talent yes. But Arizona has and always will (like every other P5 school) get better walk ons then NAU's best players. So if we have better talent on paper, then it is a coaching/play calling/motivation issue which is not going to be fixed with recruiting. For referenc...

Is it to late to hire an OC and play caller? Fisch is not good at it and Carroll, I am not sure what he does but it isn't good.

gronk4heisman

You can only chew so much time off the clock running repeatedly to three and outs. We are averaging 2.9 yards per carry and we have played two of our three games against teams whose other opponents were averaging over 6 yard per carry. NAU had 10 TFL on us because our OL is so bad. The thing that ma...

If NAU has better talent than Arizona, that is 100% on the coaches. Any NAU player that Arizona (or any D1 P5 school) called up and said come play for us Today, they would be here in four hours or less. If an offense is to difficult for any one to understand, then what is the point in that system? ...

It shows Meyer is 92% accurate in 2022. Is that not accurate? I thought he is the type who makes a pick once he has heard through the grapevine that a decision is imminent in the next few days.

The state can and always has had the ability to tax your winnings, as well as the federal government. If you are not receiving a W-2G form though it should not be an issue. Are the online betting companies sending out W-2Gs?

I like the sound of that, they need some "dudes". Hopefully a Safety who can come in tomorrow and play this weekend.

That time seems to have worked at another basketball school with another Stoops in Kentucky. Three straight bowls, a ten win season perennial top 40 recruiting classes and a long time losing program.

I was at the game and had 6 e-tickets. The most annoying part is you need to save all 6 tickets separately and then figure out where the hell they are saved on your phone. We were lucky enough to make it to our seats by the time the game was already over 21-0. Luckily going forward they should have ...

Our O Line was missing their starting LT last game and he should be back this game, additionally our best OL moved over to LT and got injured early in the game and played through it.

Way to follow up a 13 game win streak by losing 9 out of 11! Losing 5 in a row at home to the Orioles and Blue Jays should be grounds for Boone to get the boot.

He redshirted then played a year. He should have been teamed up with Trier And Ray Smith. He’s a really nice guy and should be a great face for the school.

It is hard for either of the two to really improve to be worthy of being the one splitting the reps. To me it was pretty clear that Plummer was not the guy, he was completing 25% of his passes to the defense and looked incapable of going through progressions. His progressions were look one way, its ...

I agree he is the best of the three from what I have seen, but that is far from a vote of confidence in his abilities to lead us to a winning record. QB is the most important position on the field and is probably our weakest.

From the one practice I attended this fall and the videos I have seen, he is slow with decision making and has a severe lack in accuracy. Both of which lead to his holding on to the ball to long as you mentioned. He also did not really improve much from the Spring to the Fall which to me signifies a...
