No Down Time for Crompton

[sjt18]

So after reading this I'm really left with the question of whether this is new for Crompton or if he studied like this last year as well?

I think it is quite likely that the QB's were the only ones on the field last year who usually understood and knew the offense. IMHO, all three QB's looked much worse than they're capable of because others so routinely screwed their assignments up.

You don't throw the ball to the sideline with authority if you're afraid the receiver will make the wrong break. Protection was terrible all year.

There was no confidence in the system or between the players last year. I don't think you can fault effort.

A few plays later, an outside linebacker moves to the line of scrimmage just before the snap. Crompton takes note.

"That's a linebacker, but now he's an end and it makes it a four-down (lineman) front," he says. "That's something we have to spot, because three-down and four-down completely changes our protections."


Actually Jon picked this up by himself......this article is referring to Jon teaching John Adams the intricate Xs and Os of signal calling.....could be useful in future reports being posted here.

I am not impressed with this. However if you look at past QBs the good ones all knew how and when to get into the film room and use it wisely. My question for Johnny Boy is, can you take what you see in the film room and apply it to the field? I hope so. I truly do.

Can you??.......:dry:

I suppose I'm a Crompton Homer...I really believe this kid will do great this year. I believe that most of his problems last year were due to the offensive scheme, poor protection and bad routes. He has the physical skills and a great attitude. That said, he gets a new start with me this year...the slate is clean.
Go Vols.

I just hope he doesn't fumble snaps this year. No matter what offense he was in last year, there's no reason for that

I realize this is WKU and not game three but He's looking pretty good right now.
