Nigel again, Haener is Uber, Uber competitive.

Haener is Uber x 3 competitive. Eason better have a natty level off season.

Sounds like Nigel likes try-hards.

I was super exci

Something not mentioned yet that is an encouraging improvement on last year:

11 tackles for loss in 93 total snaps. Ngata and Tryon with two sacks each, Bowman and Rice with one apiece.

Tryon has the body of an SEC rusher. Hes beautiful

Eason had a 60% completion percentage, a TD and no INTs.

Not awesome, but certainly not embarrassing.
It’s bad, but it’s also a Spring scrimmage. Not really much to be gained out of it either way.

I don’t think it’s bad. Just...meh.

To be honest, having Eason dice up our vastly-new-look defense would make me feel worse.

Film study will show who the better qb was today. Pretty easy to see. Wasnt Eason. Did you forget the 5 sacks where he stood like a statue while Haener was stepping up, eluding rush and actually moving chains? The pick is of no consequence to the coaches
Eason has no legs. Eason has no legs.
Yella, Haener has the biggest trunk, relatively by size, than all the qb's. And can extend plays with legs just like Browning. Brownings strongest suit, and he was really good at it. Haener has total package sans height (who's the #1 pick and 2" shorter than Haener) and pressing with int's trying to win job. He'll settle down, no worries.

But thanks yellow for an objective post at least, although inaccurate. It's what a forum is designed to accomplish...meaningful discussion. Oh, and 3 words longer than that poster formerly known as Baze and his 1-word masterpieces for posts
I’m not objective in any way shape, Pup. I hate all short people and want only my 6’5” and up bros slinging the pig skin.

I can’t believe I just watched that shit for two hours
That's how spring games generally go buttfuck. They're not for armchair dinks enjoyment like yours. They're for film study, of which Haener will grade out better. But make no mistake, this team will struggle on offense at least early in year. Spiker was a disappointment. We need him
So, the offense is going to come out firing on all cylinders right off the bat.

I feel much better about this team's chances now.

Thanks, Arizona123!

Goddamn ... Haven't heard that name since ...

Myles Rice actually looks good enough to at least give us some snaps. He’s always looked the part, but he does seem to be getting better.

I think it is break it or make it for him. He is prime prospect for grad transfer

You're becoming a parody Pup.

For those wondering, Eason could have won job back from Fromm, he was given opportunity. He clearly saw he wouldnt thus transferred to UW where another Jake presents the same problem. He should have stayed at Georgia, he might have started after Fromm goes pro next year.

It's what I recommend to qb's. Stay put, work hard, your time will come. Eason, hit the weight room, learn from Haener...you might start after your grad transfer to Utah. At least you'll have a degree
Fromm couldn't beat Eason out in Fall camp. Eason maintained his starting job. Then Eason injured his knee. There was no opportunity to win the job back after that. Fromm was playing too well when Eason got healthy. No coach is dumb enough to fuck up what's working at the time. Fuck you're an insufferable cunt. Haener is fucking terrible. He's like a JUGS machine pumping out balls to the defense to help them work on their ball skills. You were terribly, terribly wrong and now you're just embarrassing yourself.

In other words...Fromm was playing better you fucking idget. Fromm ga0ve beast cha0nce to win. Nobody loses job to injury..unless the other guy is better. Now sit your cunt down.

Pete says he is looking for consistency out of the QB position for spring day. We all learned who consistently threw picks. Is that a plus for Pete since it's consistent?

What we do know is who consistently took sacks on key 3rd downs, had zero feel in pocket...big boyd!

Ngata had both his shoulders in a brace. Not good when it comes to gaining weight.

True, but he also has a lean lower half. Honestly he’s lean all around. He’s ripped, but not jacked. Every pic I see of him he’s cut up, but he’s just so lean.

He’s gained 8 pounds since he got here and his size seems to be the biggest obstacle to playing time. He flashes whenever he’s on the field, just too small to keep him out there other than obvious passing downs at his current position.

Ones
LT - Trey Adams
LG - Luke Wattenberg

The first-team defense lined up like this for the first scrimmage period:

DL - Benning Potoa'e
DL - Levi Onwuzurike
OLB - Joe Tryon
OLB - Ryan Bowman
ILB - Kyler Manu
ILB - M.J. Tafisi
CB - Keith Taylor
CB - Kyler Gordon
Safety - Myles Bryant
Safety - Cameron Williams
Nickel - Elijah Molden

When the second-team defense came out, this is how they lined up:

DL - John Clark
DL - Sam Taimani
OLB - Ariel Ngata
OLB - Myles Rice
ILB - Jackson Sirmon
ILB - Josh Calvert
CB - Dominique Hampton
CB - Dustin Bush
Safety - Brandon McKinney
Safety - Alex Cook
Nickel - Isaiah Gilchrist
-Looks like Taimani passed Tuli for now. Both will play a lot.
-Cam Williams (w/ Bryant also at S) playing over McKinney.
-I don’t think Ngata can add any weight. I hope we can find use for for him so he isn’t the next Josh Shirley.
-Can the Hammer please take Manu’s spot?

Sounds like Nigel likes try-hards.

There was this horrible rumor that was spread when Nigel was drafted about him cutting the boom box cord on Westcoast Wednesday. That’s the day that the blacks put on all their favorite rap from tone loc, nwa, and sir mix a lot. Then this cracker ass honkey turned on some fucking country music bullshit. Nigel had enough of that white person bullshit and cut the cord to said boom box which made both whites and blacks upset.

Since then Nigel’s been trying to make it up to white try hards because it still weighs heavy on his conscience.

His comments make perfect sense when you know the whole back story.

Anyone know what's up with ZTP or if he has been banged up? I'm thinking he'll have a decent role carved for him this season.

Sorry. Not even watching the play. Just looking at the empty seats makes me want to vomit. Is it really that hard to figure out Pete? Embarrassing.

There were more there earlier ... it was 2.5 hours in at that point and after about an hour of rain. Most people because of the weather seemed to head up to Club Husky to have the opportunity to pay $8-10 for a beer and watch inside. A lot of people left the seats in the lower bowl as the rain started and then left when it didn't stop.
