You missed reading comprehension. I gave an assessment of what I've seen. Then I said "I hope I'm wrong about him". I didn't write him off, as you said. That's just fucking stupid, but I've considered the source.FireCohen said:
“Isn’t too promising??” So tell me what did a miss???chuck said:
Who's writing him off? Fuck dude...read all the words.FireCohen said:
yeah lets write off a true freshman that showed promisechuck said:
My assessment if William's isn't too promising. I hope I'm wrong about him. He seems treat it up against bad offenses like ours, and get exposed against decent competition. He doesn't tackle well at all and is a few steps slow in space.bananasnblondes said:
I think he'll be better next year. I was, however, quite surprised by just how bad he played at times last year given the preseason hype.DoogWhisperer said:Just hope Cam grows some balls (or hair).

Yeah...maybe. I hope so. I'm not sure that being a freshman safety excuses being slow in pursuit and inept at open field tackling. We'll see.theknowledge said:
Seems like the assessment of a kid who played too early. If he plays with more decisiveness and confidence next year he gains the steps you think he lacks. No way he is slower of foot than Jojo. Jojo just knew what Jimmy wanted and was a very confident defender. As for tackling, that may be a problem unless he gains belief in his physicality after an off season of Socha and RC.chuck said:

I know he has a nose for the ball. That's good. -
True freshman defensive back takes lumps, shocking doogs everywhere.

Not talking about his lumps. The question is whether he has the physical tools to improve. At least I think that's the question.dtd said:True freshman defensive back takes lumps, shocking doogs everywhere.

Am I writing for the times? Am I being paid for my scouting reports?dtd said:
Fuck man, this is a fan board. I form opinions about what i see, and i leave open the possibility that I'm wrong. I'd have a stronger opinion one way or the other if I had all 22 footage, but I'd have to be as big a drippy cunt as you to want that. -
He will get better. I’m not worried about it. He played QB his whole life and was simply a ball hawk on defense in high school.chuck said:

He’s not a great tackler yet but he will get better. He made assignment blunders that to me seem out of character. Guys were wide open on those TD’s. Busted coverages that he obviously fucked up because he got pulled for it. He’s a hard worker and I think he will clean up all of that with time. Those were youth issues. Like I said, he started playing a lot again later in the year and was not noticeable in a bad way at all.
He’s never been considered a freak athlete but he’s fluid and super athletic. The ball skills show it. He was also a good high school QB. It’s sizzle but he strikes me as a business type that is extremely driven. -
You just started two freshman, who are now experienced. As soon as ASA finishes the offseason of Rhino cum, and gets up to 210 he’s going to destroy some people in the Taylor Rap roll.AtomicDawg said:
One might also say with all those guys on the roster in 2019 they shouldn’t have had the worst pair of lb’s of any major conference. I don’t think they will be as bad as this year but they very well could be the weakest position group and below average again.bananasnblondes said:
Yeah. If we can pencil in Ulofoshio, we need to find ONE guy to stand next to him. We have a stable of four 4* guys in Ngata, Sirmon, Hemuli, and Calvert, plus theres Tafisi who played last year. Having a decent ILB duo next year shouldnt be that tall of an order.RoadDawg55 said:
Don’t know if he’s any good, but Stanford’s defense was terrible. I actually think we will be pretty good at LB next year. Ulofoshio cemented himself as a solid starter (maybe more) and we have a plethora of young LB’s that redshirted. Sirmon sucked for most the year, but he did get better too. Ngata is a wildcard and could possibly be a good player if he gets to play ILB.Bread said:Andrew Pryts (ILB) led stanford in tackles and is looking to grad transfer. Please tell me we have contacted him.
Safety is another area of concern next year too. There is talent there and a track record of developing it though so i think it will be ok but maybe not above average. Maybe Irvin can contribute there. -
