Rooster

[TheOriginalCane]

Can we change Rooster's nickname to "Chickenhawk"?

I hate the concept of throwing players away.

He is very talented. They should do what they can to keep him and make him better.

Super talented kid but if we were going with a walk-on as RB2 yesterday over him. There has to be a good reason. At this point, I don't really care who leaves outside of about 5 players. We need to turn this roster over.

Not a walk-on. A transfer.

Assuming Chaney and Citizen are healthy in the Spring I would be surprised if Rooster or Franklin are on the team.

Rooster and Thad should do what’s best for there familia .
They should just focus on getting there degree, this is what they should do stay get diploma then s job.

But they won’t , I don’t think they listen to much

 

[JgDaCane]

Good. Start removing the quitters one by one.

Ok so there will be at least 83 bums

The risk-reward when you give Rooster the ball isn't worth it as much as he fumbles and there are zero explosive plays to make up for it.

Who’s throwing what away? If he transfers because of playing time after fumbling 5 times this year that’s his decision. The coaches have to sit him at least a game, he got chances.

Horribly misused. Rooster has a lot of talent. But we run him up the gut without even a zone blocking scheme or pulling OL most of the time. He's got issues with securing the ball. Deserved to have his role adjusted as a result. But we've ruined him. ... Thad, I'm willing to concede was a bad eval. I honestly still don't get it, think it's mental not physical. But Rooster, that's on Gattis.

Rooster should stay. Thad can go.

He almost left last year. I don't expect him to stick around with Stanley getting carries over him

 

[Cane4L]

He just fumbled again

 

[nickster]

He will be entering the portal.

I hope Rooster stays and simply works hard to change the narrative. He needs to understand that ball security for RBs is crucial and will land you on the bench until you correct it. Look at Melvin Gordon. Denver brought in a practice squad player to take his job bc he couldn't hold on to the ball.

Misused? Yes. “A lot of talent” is relative and debatable. He’s a nice scat back who is a good weapon in the passing game. He has the speed but he lacks wiggle/shiftiness of a RB1/RB2 type.

We going to start a new rooster thread every day or we waiting for actual new information on the subject?

 

[Pixelated bukake]

I wish the young man the best. Maybe he can find success in a slot capacity. Don't think he's wired or built for toting the rock as an RB. Maybe somewhere that will use him in space.

 

[Canefancarlos2]

assuming Chaney being healthy is very risky.

Beat me to this. I don't think he will ever stay healthy maybe he comes in for a couple games before gets hurt again

Chaney will never be reliable…it’s a surprise if he’s not injured at this point.

There were explosive plays last year
