Medlen was so fun. 90 fastball, with plus plus change and lots of heart. I’d run him out there against anyone

Not sure “really high level” is what I’d use to describe it

someone tell coach this is how you get people to not like you.

 

[zjcvols]

Not sure “really high level” is what I’d use to describe it

“He’s running the offense how we are asking him.”

“We have to support Joe better, he’s doing his job.”

“Everybody needs to improve, not just Joe.”

Come on man

AA: “We have no faith in Kyle or Tonkin right now and are desperate to find someone for the back end.”

 

[zjcvols]

Tonkin has a 6.10 ERA since the ASB

Seriously… just don’t answer the question if you’re going to try and gaslight.

First one is most alarming. That is not the offense we saw last year. Let the man air it out, for better or worse, if you’re going to play him.

There are ways around answering the question that doesn’t make it seem as though you think 80% of the fan base is dumb, blind or ignorant

Also Hubbs insinuated that concerns of Halzle aren’t necessarily unfounded. Said that they might be missing Golesh’s eyes right now

Just don’t say anything if you are going to spew this garbage. That doesn’t make me feel good at all

I was worried about this

Yeah, this is some Butch Jones spin

In all likelihood, the first part of that statement is likely true, but the reason it is true is not what Halzle says.

Nothing would improve about the operation of the offense probably because Nico isn't ready, not because Joe is performing at a "high level."

 

[05_never_again]

The whole "Joe isn't a leader" stuff is purely because he hasn't been playing well. The guy seems like he works hard and is a good teammate. When he gifted everyone those headphones before the season, folks ranted and raved about how this is what leaders do and he was really trying to put his stamp on the team. Leadership is obviously really important, but oftentimes it seems like people put the cart before the horse. Lots of guys haven't been playing well, and the most important position on the field hasn't been playing well. It is a lazy "analysis" to say that is because of a lack of leadership.

makes sense. first year calling plays.

 

[05_never_again]

makes sense. first year calling plays.

I don't think Halz is calling plays - hell, I don't think Golesh really called plays, for that matter. I think Golesh was in Heupel's ear a lot, telling him stuff that undoubtedly influenced the playcalling, but Heup is the ultimate trigger-puller.
