Fall Practice Summary- Day 9

[TheChosenOne]

Facts, its why I wanted Hurts over him. The reason Hurts left wasnt because he wasnt good its because hes behind the projected number 1 pick. OSU didnt care sort of like Fields where UGA was ok with it, same with USC with Bolden. I dont like transfers so much its a low percentage of getting monsters and shouldnt be dependent upon unless u cant recruit and **** the bed closing which isnt a good thing.

Right, I was okay with the transfer portal stuff this year because the mess of a recruiting class Richt left when he retired.

BUT if we think we're going to go somewhere on the backs of a bunch of transfers Kansas State and WVU would like to have a word with us.

He’s loose with the football. I cringed last year every time he dropped back. He held that football like Michael Jackson dangled baby Blanket out the window of that hotel.

Martell = Rosier 2.0 + some swag + a little more speed

False. Rosier was 4 inches taller

 

[JgDaCane]

Martell = Rosier 2.0 + some swag + a little more speed

QB’s completed 71% of their passes in the scrimmage. We don’t have a Rosier on this roster.

 

[canecat]

Man one day I think Martell will start and then next I think Jarren will. I never think Kosi will .

 

[brcane1]

False. Rosier was 4 inches taller

Tate's got an official 5' 10.5", so Malik has 3 inches on him at best.

My bad. 3 inches shorter than Rosier

You've said some funny s'hit in the past, but this takes the cake, my friend. I'm still laughing my *** off. Good s'hit!!!

 

[troyskiles]

This is a common problem with Perry. 5 fumbles last year and had another one is Sundays scrimmage

Start slapping him all day with the Green Weenies until he learn to hold onto the ball. ****.

 

[Cajuncane]

I don't care if the QB in question is Tate Martell or if it is Gino Torretta, I have been nervous about those short sideline passes ever since the days of Drunken Dennis Erickson. If we want to attack the flats, it is much safer to send a RB into the flat out of the backfield. I'm tired of our bubble screens, where the QB completes a -1 yard pass by having to throw the ball 20 yards horizontally.

Let's attack the middle of the field more in our passing game. We have some great TEs and some quick slot guys in Thomas and Harley.

I hope Enos lost the page that had that bubble screen on it...threw it 15 times a game and maybe once did it ever gain more than a couple yds...

 

[troyskiles]

Look, I don't want him gift wrapped and just handed the startling job like some people here but he's a Cane so let's not trash the kid either.

I agree PredaCane, Tate is doing the best job he can, if it is good enough and he starts, great. If not, he is for sure giving his all for The U trying to win the job. That's all we can ask for from all the QB's. I don't see any of them separating themselves, in our eyes at least, prior to UF. Coaches have to pick one though. I think JW is coming on and he was the last guy I thought would take the first snap on 8/24. We will soon know.

 

[troyskiles]

This QB argument is going to go on all season no matter what the depth chart looks like after this weekend.

Tell me something about the OL and DTs please!

Watch the interviews with Barry and Stroud. Stroud is the man in interviews. He has been the best, most informative interview I have seen in a long time from our coaches. Hope all Stroud is saying is true!

 

[troyskiles]

I don't care who they pick but it needs to be soon so the offense can get used to one cadence and time up with the starting QB. I doubt the offensive line can sync up with 3 different QB's timing and for the WR's to get used to the pass types from the QB since all three have different deliveries.

Fraggle, they have been doing this since Spring Camp. They know all 3 QB's well. Does not make a difference who they put in there, the guys will adjust very quickly, like within a series.

 

[Torocane]

Right, because there is no way Ohio State let's him leave that easily if he did.

Until Martell proves me wrong I'm going to continue to say it. Ohio State going after fields and letting Martell walk uncontested isn't a good sign ESPECIALLY when it was his very own QB coach who was promoted to HC making no zero effort to keep him.

Not contesting your assessment of Tate because I dont know......but Ohio State could not do anything about him leaving at all. Even if let's pretend they really wanted him to stay they couldn't do a single thing about it.
It the new reality with the portal and the new rules.

 

[caneworld]

Tate's got an official 5' 10.5", so Malik has 3 inches on him at best.

The way Rosier was slinging it 2 feet over the receiver's head along the sidelines, he could have done without those 3"

 

[Trav]

Malik has 3 inches on him at best.

The crank size speculation on this board will never end.

 

[Prizzle]

My bad. 3 inches shorter than Rosier

Live look at Tate height

 

[954CaneBoi]

He fit urban's offense but day is going away from that. Day is going to be using more pro style concepts and looking to attack outside the hashes more.

So is that even more concerning for us given that Day is implementing a pro-style offense that will be more similar to our new offense than a spread offense is? And Tate isn’t a fit in the former, assuming this story is true re: OSU’s thoughts on Tate?

 

[WeBallinBoyz]

Jarren williams +430 to win the starting QB job...just sayin'

I’m sure our offense will have plenty of pro principles but there will be multiple formations. In fact, enos said we are running a “spread coast” offense which is a blend of a number of different styles. Tate’s “lack of arm talent “ is overstated and not necessarily true imo. He has a good arm that’s good enough to be a starting qb just not an elite arm. Justin fields who was thought to have elite arm talent has even struggled at osu so far and looked terrible in the spring game with inaccurate passes so it happens. Even with struggles Ryan day is not having buyers remorse with him
