We May Be In Trouble (Wednesday Practice Discussion)

[rexvol]

The quarterbacks and note the pural meaning all of them struggled. They struggled to complete passes. They really in team work 11 on 11 made one play down the field.

The quarterback play must and I mean must get better. In the secondary, Art Evans had a pick, and their coverage overall was really good.

I know its only the 2nd day, but these guys have been working with the wr's all summer and we're not even in pads.

 

[GAVol]

You can't possibly be surprised by this.

 

[SGMVols]

They do have to practice against a pretty darn good defense too.

 

[Voldaddy]

Run, run, run.

 

[hatvol96]

Crompton was apparently the second coming of Drew Brees in practice last year. How'd that turn out?

 

[vollygirl]

I think I'm gonna be sick.

I'm shocked that our below average QBs from last year aren't looking very good. Seriously, these guys have been playing football with these guys for years... there should be some rhythm with them regardless of the offense we are running.

I don't expect Lamaison or Rozier to be familiar enough to even be capable of looking decent for a couple of weeks... but it's getting down to crunch time for the older guys, and they are running out of excuses.

I bet their performance wouldn't change if they played against the second team D.

 

[hatvol96]

Exactly. It's like someone being shocked by the point guard play at UT this past season.

 

[oUTKickedCoverage]

I bet their performance wouldn't change if they played against the second team D.

Anyone got the phone number to the UAB football offices?

 

[PA Vol]

where did you here this from?

uggghhhhh. this is depressing.

 

[utmdm]

Maybe he will average it out and reverse this year - bad practice, great in game.

 

[SGMVols]

We talkin' 'bout PRACTICE, man.

 

[WhatinVolNATION?]

At least it's nice to see an honest quote coming out other than "workin like heck" and "gotta watch the tape"!

 

[Volfreak1964]

It's THE SECOND DAY OF PRATICE !!!!!!

 

[TennesseePride]

Everytime I read about QB progress it makes me sick at my stomach..

We need to run a type offense that puts our QB situation where he has the least amount of opputunities to screw up..

DANGIT!

 

[hmanvolfan]

We talkin' 'bout PRACTICE, man.

Signed Allen Iverson.. lol:

Do you know what Florida could do to us if they can put 8 guys in the box? We NEED good QB play, or at least a QB that manage the game well. I still think Crompton isn't confidence enough to lead this offense. Stephens just has that swagger in him. He's the man.

 

[rexvol]

I'm not really surprised, but I did let my hope influence my expectations.

Then...in the practice updates thread, this was said:

So far crompton and stephens look crisp in 11 on 11 soft coverage, Vinson is a go I don't remember seeing I'm yesterday.

 

[King Webbsticles]

OH NOES!!! The Sky is falling!!!

Where is that quote even from?

 

[Business]

Man, the way some of your all's emotions ebb and flow over one practice or one friggin' 17 year old saying no to Tennessee, makes me worry for your (some) mental health.

 

[vol_in_ar]

now that CLK's brought Bree's old coach in, it should be a match made in heaven

 

[g8terh8ter_eric]

It's the second day of practice and these guys are getting pushed. Also, remember that our defense knows our offense pretty well right now. I think I will freak out if we are in better shape with our QB's about a week before the WKU game. If they still suck then, well.....

 

[BloodRUNZOrange]

Pump the breaks kids-pump the breaks.....its just the second day...they arethrowing alot at them on perpose the first week to see what they can and cant handle......its coaching 101 for a new staff...they need to see what they are working with...
