Sunday Morning QB With SVS-Pain Is Part Of The Process

[Coach34]

Because Kamario is from Mississippi and that automatically makes him better. That is it. That is the reason. If Luke Kromenhoek was from Saltillo, MS instead of Savannah, GA our fans would be saying the same thing. If Kamario Taylor was from Marietta, GA instead of Macon, MS no one would say a thing. And look, it is great that he is from MS and I want him to succeed. But I do not give rats ass if he is from Macon or Missoula. And for like the 200th time, HE IS NOT READY. You can see it. He got a false start penalty against A&M because he changed the cadence up. He missed two zone reads against Florida that both go for first downs because he does not know how to make the read that quickly. It is not a bad thing either or means that he is a bust. He just is not ready. Dak literally did the same thing his true freshman year. We were all screaming for Mullen to let him throw it and he did not trust him to make the reads to throw it.

This 100% all day every day

It was the same with Tyler Russell. People couldnt believe I was saying Dak would be better than him. Dak was still the best QB I've seen live in HS until we played Evangel this year and their LSU commit QB was launching 60 yard bombs to the end zone. He is going to be hell to deal with in the coming years

I actually thought Jeff called a really good game, we just didn't execute about 5 of the plays.

I actually think an underrated and unmentioned turning point in the game is the Gayten fumble. We were driving to go up 14-10 right there.

Absolutely, if Shapen connects on those three overthrown passes we would be giddy today for running the fans out of The Swamp in the third quarter and talking shit to our ole miss coworkers at the water cooler.

The fumble was bad but the roughing the passer giving Florida 15 yards and a first down instead of fourth and long was just as bad. That stole just as much momentum and gave Florida points.

Well yesterday sucked. There is no way around that feeling. I was pissed and quite frankly am still pissed. If I made this post last night, number 1-8 would have been why we needed to fire Lebby.

1. Yesterday is on Lebby and Shapen, and is a lot more on the Shapen than Lebby. Jeff called a great game yesterday. I mean we had, by my count, three TDs that we missed. Blake overthrew Thompson on one, he led him too far inside on the next drive, and then he just straight overthrew Glover in the back of the end zone. Now, saying that, Jeff is responsible for the last play. That was a god-awful play call no matter which way you look at it. Just center the ball and let Ferrie either win or lose the game. Now, Blake did play well at times. I thought he made some really good throws and had a really good run on the last drive. But you cannot make that throw.

2. There is not going to be a QB change and there is no QB controversy. It was good to see Kamario get in yesterday and even score a TD, but if we went to him as the QB our playbook would shrink to about 10 plays. He just cannot make the throws yet. And it is not an armed talent issue. It is a he cannot progress things and read things fast enough at this stage issue.

3. I thought Booth ran hard and played really well. He had 22 carries and he needed 24 carries. We need to get Gayten on the edge and stop making him a between the tackles runner. There were times where you could tell we missed Fluff yesterday.

4. Thompson and Evans were absolutely incredible. I liked what I saw out of Williams yesterday, I don?t know how you overturn that TD but at the end of the day it didn?t matter because we scored still. Shapen cost Glover a touchdown though. I was really impressed by what I saw out of him yesterday. We need to get him going a little more.

5. I thought the line blocked fine. A couple of the sacks were not on them Shapen just holds the ball too long.

6. DL was pretty good again. They did not get a whole lot of rush, but they stepped up on the last drive when it counted.

7. LB was a little hit and miss. Tillman gave them 30 yards on one drive and he is out for the first half next week. But again, like the DL, they stepped up when it counted and made a stop. They do need to fit on runs a little bit better

8. I was really impressed with the DB room yesterday. They held Wilson in check and a lot of credit goes to Jones on that. We did allow some big plays, but they were never really out of position. Really really impressed with Lanier. He made a great jump on the first interception and honestly had he not dove on the second one I think he takes it to the house.

9. Pulliam has been great in the punt game. He is a real weapon out there for us right now.

10. Ferrie got screwed. The first field goal was good and Lebby just screwed up, not giving him a chance to kick the game winner.

11. We all owe Coleman Hutzler a massive apology. Everyone, including myself, thought it was asinine to keep him, but the improvement out of his defense has been absolutely incredible. They have played well enough for us to be 6-1.

12. Like I said earlier, last night I was pissed and I wanted to fire Lebby, but now that I?ve calmed down, I realize how big of a mistake that would be. First off, if you do it this year, they are going to be at minimum three other SEC jobs open and possibly two or three more. Also, Jeff called a hell of a game. You cannot get mad at him and be pissed about the last play call and not give him credit for the other 65. He put us in position to win that game. He called a hell of a game. That is again where it falls on Shapen. The losing sucks and it doesn?t make the pain any easier but you can tell we are miles better.

13. We still need everyone on board. You can be pissed about yesterday and that is OK because I think we all are. But you cannot jump ship or abandon ship at this point. We still need everyone rowing in the same direction because that?s how this all gets fixed.

Keep the fight, keep the faith, 17 Texas, and HailState

PS: never go back to the script. The interlocking looked incredible.

Gayten's fumble was huge.

Kamario is so talented, but just not ready yet.

Our defensive backs have really competed this year. I still don't they are overly talented, but their effort has been excellent. Kudos to them. They were expected to be a real weakness and they haven't been. They haven't backed down from anyone and they have competed their butt off.

They absolutely have. Hell we lead the league in INTs. I'm really happy for a guy like Lanier. He had to play out of position all year last year. He's finally back at his natural safety position and has really thrived there. I agree about our talent. I still don't think they're great, but they're in position and battle their tails off every attempt.

The QBs we've faced in conference is about to really up a level after Saturday. We've only faced 1 top half sec qb in qbr. Manning is another bottom guy, but he's the last one.

The only QB remaining that worries me is Green. Stockton is good, but he more manages the game. I mean his two best games are against Tenn, who we exploited, and Ole Miss, who is not very good defensively. Pribula can't beat you and he turns the ball over a good amount, 7 INTs this year and 4 in his last 2 games. Chambliss is a little hit or miss. He's not as TO prone as Simmons but he's not very accurate. If you make him beat you with the deep ball, he can't do it.

Green scares the hell out of me though. We may need 60 in that game. The good news is that their D will by far be the worst we play all year.
