I disagree personally, especially when we thought Lawson was a future superstar. I wouldn't want to waste a year when I could throw in Durkin if Motley happened to get hurt and then wait for Brewer to return.
It would be one thing if Lawson came in and was efficient, but it was just scrimmage downs for him.
You should go back and watch those games again if you think the offense wasn't adapted to Motley's play style. If you can't see the difference between when Motley was starting and when Brewer was starting then you just aren't going to understand my point.
I would say that in a few years we'll be the bull in the Coastal division china shop, but we weren't the only school to make a good hire (Miami being the other). Either way, the future is bright
You do when he is the new 2nd stringer, which he was when Motley was the starter.
My dad ships me bottles of homebrew every month or so. Typically 6-12 bottles at a time. Each bottle is bubble wrapped, and then placed in a 1-gallon ziploc bag. Only one bottle has broken so far (he's shipped a lot of beers to me over the past 2 or so years). I'm not sure how much he pays to ship, but it's always UPS. He's also checked beer a few times when flying.
I saw that episode of Amazing Race, IIRC, she was fine. It was shocking, I thought she had broken her nose at least.
We also promised Durkin early playing time, but you see how that's worked out. I personally don't think we promise high school kids anything, and if we do, it's stupid.
I'm gonna have a hard time pinning the Miami game on the defense when the offense gifted Miami so much early in the game.
Dat completion percentage, dose yards, dem touchdowns
if Motley tweaked an ankle
Which he didn't. Which is why we never should have needed to burn the shirt. You don't play a true freshman 5 snaps a game in garbage time to "prepare" him in case your 2nd string goes down. The kid threw 8 passes. That hardly is preparation.
I agree it was a waste of a year of eligibility but does keep our staff's reputation of not BS'ing recruits intact.
I disagree that we should've gone to Lawson immediately when Brewer got hurt. Motley had earned the #2 job via his performance in Spring camp and Fall camp. Play to win, which means playing your most effective players. For most if not the entire season, Motley was a more effective college QB. I think there's a good chance that will change in 2016, as long as Lawson develops the mental game to match his physical talents.
Eh.
The way he was used, we might as well have been running the wildcat.
Sarcastica font...
Motley's preparedness wasn't as much of an issue as the play calling when he was in the game.
This speaks to Loeffler's inability to adapt to the player, in which you argued below that he adapted quite well?
And he did that for Motley, pretty successfully I might add.
(responding to this statement)
The point is, OC's adapt the packages to who is on the field when injuries occur; not adapting who is on the field to the packages.
A lot! Watermelon skins are damn thick, yea they break easily, but on your face? OUCH!
I've packed in my suitcase with lots of clothes wrapping it. Normally, I don't care about wrinkly clothes on the way home, as they are all dirty anyway.
I have done this with countless beers, in fact, I brought a large growler home from Hess Brewing one year. It had a flip top so I added some tape and then wrapped it in clothes. Had a few other 22s and bombers and did the same thing. adding a bag around for extra protection is nice.
I've brought beers to Germany (yeah, I'm that weird guy, but I was bringing home brew for my fam), and wrapped them as well.
My biggest thing is the weight. I've packed a bunch of beers and had to relocate other items.
Stupid terrorists messed up our carry on liquids, as that would be great bringing cases on the plane.
78 TDs, holy poo poo
If he's serviceable but not a star, we may want to start someone else by 2020.
But no, let's fry the guy on his way out instead.
National Championship... next year... must.... resist.... urge... to believe....
We had to burn it when we did because we had zero QBs with game experience if Motley tweaked an ankle. After that, we had to do what would win games. Lawson not progressing (not necessarily a big knock on him, he's only a true freshman after all), made it a bad idea to play him, since him fumbling a snap doesn't exactly help us win football games. There wasn't a "good" way to get through that situation, and now it is what it is.
Every day I like the Fuente hire a little more.
