Anyone else...

Other than me upset at the fact Cromp had to play against the 2nd team defense most of the camps?? I think that hurt him more than anything. Also, is it to a point now where they just need to take off the Green Jersey and burn it??

He played against the 2nd string in this game.

So what you are saying is, if he played against the 1st team D he might not have sucked so bad last night. Probably wouldn't have hurt.

I'm with ya there! His biggest struggle was that when he was under pressure, he struggled. Put on the big boys! He's a tough Mt. Boy...make him tougher first team.

i think i saw someone in the game thread say that he heard clawson talk about how he didn't want crompton to scramble much since he didn't want him to get hurt. if true, that sucks. it looks like we're gonna need all the help we can get this season.

Biggest Crompton stuggle. If you watched him only a lot of plays he would keep his eye on only one reciever instead of checking down to his other options. That is terrible QB skills and that has to change QUICK

Agreed and it's not something that Clawson can coach rather than something Cromp is going to have to learn how to do on the job.

Yeah, I thought that was supposed to be one of the upgrades from Ainge to Crompton? Certainly didn't look like it last night. He seemed just as slow as Ainge.

Yeah, he was a stud in 06 against LSU, I thought. He pretty much started that game. Ainge hobbled for a drive or two then sat out.

Somewhere coaching has made him worse. Two years of development down the crapper.

Ainge is actually straight line faster, Crompton is just more mobile.

Ainge is 10x the QB Crompton appeared to be last night. Say what ya want about Ainge, but he was pretty damn good and would not have lost that game last night. I really hope that was a fluke on Crompton's part.
