All is very undersized for the tight end position, but he’s too slow to play wideout. he certainly is a legitimate threat as a receiver, however what position does he project to play at the next level? he reminds me of the dude from Kentucky a few years ago that was absolutely uncoverable for the Wildcats but then got completely screwed by the NFL. of course, the Kentucky player was White while All has a drop of vibrancy in his genetic code, so …
a poster on a popular Iowa forum must be reading my posts … he suggested that Iowa quit screwing around and start playing every down with three or four tight ends, utilizing a power running game and lots of motion to isolate mismatches with the opposing secondary. based on their history (recruiting/developing really good tight ends and screwing/missing on wide receiver prospects), this would seem to be both a no-brainer AND a chance to win through innovative offensive schemes and playing to your strengths. i’ve advocated this approach for years. can you imagine a team that intentionally tries to prioritize players like Lachey, Bowers, Evans, etc.?
he outran the MUCH smaller Iowa wideout to the end zone for the score, though he carried the little afflete on his back the last 5-10 yards. Lol. nary a word from the commentary crew about Halladay’s athletic ability; instead, they just said “(he) got it done.”
He also did the intelligent thing by wrapping up the ball with both hands as he was going into the endzone to make sure the afflete doesn't try and strip the ball from behind.
Great to see Brian Kelly failing at LSU. He ditched a promising situation at Notre Dame to chase that "southern upside" to a Natty. On his current trajectory he'll be on a broadcast desk in 2 years instead.
Duke is off to a slow start against Notre Dame which is to be expected. I'm torn with this game as I love Notre Dame. However I'm rooting
for Duke. Why do you ask? Because Riley Leonard and Bo Nix are the 2 Quarterbacks with the most talent and the best chance to win the
Heisman Trophy. Our guys winning the Heisman Award is huge if and when it happens. I have a feeling that Duke will comeback here and
pull of the upset. If they do expect Riley Leonard to be the primary reason. The kid says he wants to win a national championship and he
has said that in interviews. This is a kid playing for a basketball school but he is helping to change the culture there to a 2 sport school.
Bo Nix and Oregon looking great so far. Both Leonard and Nix are true double threat mobile quarterbacks at the highest level.
I read tonight that DeJean has four touchdowns (three pick-sixes and this punt return) since 2022, which is tied for second-most on the team in that span.
Lol awesome and sad fact, all in one! I appreciate the inserted videos! What a game for DeJean I regret not watching the 2nd half!
Duke punting from ND's 33 on a 4th and 6 with under 3 mins left in the game sealed their fate, such a shame they gave away the game with such a bonehead decision. These coaches just hold our guys back from greatness and Leonard is now injured due to the unnecessary sequence of events instead of just going for the win right there
