My two cents on the Dudek thing is, I just want to see whites run the ball......Period
Someone mentioned a couple years ago that it was good for Nall to come out early, I reluctantly agreed....In hindsight, not at all....
I wish Nall would have had 600 yards rushing his senior year rather than 0 for the Bears.
The crappy new coach may have turned him into an h back, maybe not,,,,
I hoped McCaffrey stayed at Stanford....He would have crushed and become the all time leader in school history...,Instead of rushing for 500:yards in Carolina.....This is debatable, of course......He could have had a Bryce Love ending..
I hated that Luke Staley left before his senior year....I wanted to see the kid run for 2000 yards for BYU, and he may have.....
The 2021 draft will have Dudek available, hopefully not Borghi....
Borghi needs all four years, unless next year they can the horrendous Leach soon....
I hate watching Kansas St and seeing their back get 3 carries for 8 yards,,
I loved watching Zach Zwinak, Mark Weisman, Luke Lippencott, Mike Trumpy, Zach Line, Gerhart and so many (not that many) others, run the ball....Knowing full well most won’t have a sniff of nfl life....Like Carney the last couple years....Last year when he had 200 yards late in the season was so awesome.....He’ll be lucky to get a camp invite next year...
Enjoyed the comments up above.
Unless one is an Alabama fan the most disturbing scene yesterday involved Texas Tech WR Dalton Rigdon. As mentioned above Rigdon was on his way towards another eye opening game. In fact I thought I was witnessing that magical moment when you start to fully realize that this player has special talent. An ultra smooth runner with a lot of spring in his steps Rigdon is making a believer out of me as a sophomore.
Then an ass wipe TCU CB Jeff Gladney skulls Rigdon in the most vicious way possible. He skulled him straight on and it looked like Rigdon not only had a concussion but because of the frontal shot may have suffered a broken jaw as well. We will find out soon enough. It was a disgusting hit and fully intentional. That SOB was kicked out of the game but I would argue for a multi game penalty. Only hope and pray Rigdon can see the field again this season but with only two games left I wouldn't bet the house on it. Truly sour moment yesterday. And WR McLane Mannix continues to have problems as mentioned above fumbled at the end of their comeback.
Oddly TCU had a lot of white defenders rotating in and out. Nice to see that and most are young players.
Big Ten talk. Michigan QB Shea Patterson had a marvelous game as they handled Michigan State. Patterson has been on a roll of late.
Nebraska extended the contract of HC Scott Frost for two more years. Frost has been conferring with legend Tom Osborne a lot and Osborne told him to beef up the walk on program. Get back to basics.
Here is how I read that. Nebraska of yore was the antithesis of the way teams recruit now. These days it is all about pretty boy stuff and camp performances along with measurements which leads to a plethora of black player recruiting. But back in the day when Nebraska was the pride of college football their bed rock formula was to bring in hungry local farm hand types who were tough and hungry. Many of them landed on defense and the hallmark of Osborne era defenses was their medieval don't give an inch approach. They were menacing and usually the best in the nation.
Yesterday Wisconsin RB Taylor mowed them over. They looked like the guy in that old Charles Atlas comic book ad before he got wind of the Atlas "secret." In the old days Nebraska would have stuffed Taylor like a Thanksgiving turkey.
The only way Nebraska will be relevant again is if they get back to that old tried and true formula which means bringing in hungry tough white players. They have to shift their attention away from this "modern" way of recruiting which eliminates white players from the get go. Plenty of teams follow that all black recruiting techniques and many of them are the worst teams out there.
I agree with Leonardfan. Their QB Martinez has proven time and again he isn't the answer. There were some young white defenders getting their feet wet yesterday so that at least was encouraging.
Nice to see Riley Lees of Northwestern have a decent game. I think he was the only NW player to catch a pass. As mentioned above they have a cavalcade of white looking running backs who are alas all mixed. Pretty weird.
If you scan my pre games post yesterday I was correct in all of my quasi predictions. Georgia beat Auburn and Baylor blew a huge lead as Oklahoma came roaring back. Well last week TCU blew their lead against Baylor. Baylor looks like a paper tiger to me. And I had an inkling tough Iowa was going to lay down the wood at home against Minnesota. Here is a news flash Iowa has better raw talent than Minnesota.
But what a joy to see Iowa stick it to mainly caste Minnesota. And as mentioned Iowa CB Riley Moss was integral in the victory. Practically flawless the entire game. And this was against a team with hot shot receivers who are stat stuffers. A beautiful game ending interception to boot to put a period on the proceedings. Great job Moss #33. He was filling in but lets look at his case. He is in my opinion the closest player we have that has a chance to play CB in the NFL ala why I dud him the Great White Hope. Has all the tools but whether he becomes a starter next year as a junior etc. will clarify his NFL chances. Time will tell but I know everyone here will be rooting for him big time.
Clemson swallowed Wake Forest, another team with stat stuffing black wide receivers, and then spit them out. It was a brutal spanking and not lost on anyone here they have a strong white presence on defense and well what do you know Wake wasn't able to put up their usual "queer act" putting up 50 points la di da. They were crushed like a bug helped out by (see above post) Stud Brother S Tanner Muse who put his foot down early in the game with a great interception and a mauling sack. Gee another white DB with a key interception? Aren't blacks the only ones capable of playing in the defensive back field? You know the types that routinely give up 50 points a game looking like fools? The worlds greatest athletes?
Also mentioned above two terrific games for the star running backs that get mentioned here every week Kadin Remsberg and Max Borghi sailed over 100 yards rushing in wins. And as mentioned above what do we make of Ole Miss firecracker speedster John Rhys Plumlee? I am going to write about him in a separate post soon. Eye opening information on him and the future of white athletes like Plumlee who have chosen the wrong sport.
Now to the important part. Yale wiped Princeton off the map and coupled with the surprising Dartmouth loss to Cornell it means that The Game next week at home against Harvard will have Ivy League champion implications. Good Lord that game is fired up enough and now with this added element look out. Harvard- Yale with the season in the balance? That means war. It will be on ESPNU Saturday and the folks around here might have a bit of interest in that one and a chance to watch the Yale Blitzkrieg offense!!!
Which includes the great wide receiver duo of NFL talent JP Shohfi (8-141-2) and Reed Klubnik (7-107-3). And who can forget dynamite RB Zane Dudek who had a nifty game in limited carries. I know our RB guru here Rocky wants to see more carries but let us not lose fact of the ultimate goal which is to have him fully healthy and in top form for the 2021 NFL draft. Running backs have a short shelf life to begin with and Zane has yet another season to go so it might not be in his best interest to grind away on a ton of carries every game. At this juncture as long as he keeps his average per carry at the high level it has been at the past several games I think he will be fine. I know Rocky wants Dudek to be at his best come the 2021 draft and if he can stay healthy he should be ready.
