Buffalo716 Posted October 2, 2021 Author Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) 8 minutes ago, Not at the table Karlos said: He wasn't even on the depth chart I found. I thought maybe he transferred. Has he been that bad in practice? Meyers seemed to have regressed and vantrease is very meh with out an elite running game. No he's a RS sophomore on the roster Had to learn a new system and is behind 2 experienced guys UB only lists the top 2 but I believe he is #3 ... He was after spring ball... He's got a strong arm but not a lot of targets to throw to right now Edited October 2, 2021 by Buffalo716 1 Quote
dollars 2 donuts Posted October 4, 2021 Posted October 4, 2021 Look, I am telling you I am on the edge of being pleasantly surprised. I think 7-5 is still a possibility and whoa nelly I have fantasies of 8-4. Quote

They have a gem in Q Williams, yet Vantrease will continually hold him back. Quote

(Thanks again, Lance.) But I do think giving Myers a shot is worth doing. Quote

K-9 Posted October 10, 2021 Posted October 10, 2021 Hard to believe Linguist has such long experience coaching DBs at the highest college and even pro levels. Because his DBs have looked absolutely clueless out there all night and no adjustments were ever made. Quote

This team is full of coaching issues and none of them have anything to do with being on the job short term. So many simple errors over and over again. Not a good start to career for Mo Quote

This team can obviously score and make plays but they are just shooting themselves in the foot. Entertaining losses. Quote

I’m not impatient so much as surprised that a coach with that acumen and background didn’t even try to make adjustments in his secondary yesterday. But I’m still solidly behind the hire and wanna give him all the time he needs. Quote

I played defensive back in college and coached it .. it really is the hardest position Especially with the way the rules have gone in the last 15 years You'll see a lot more defensive backs play the ball in zone than in man... Wide receivers are so fast and agile now, that for most CBs in college.. not NFL quality ones.. while in man coverage they literally can't take their eye off the receiver for a second or they'll be cooked.. so they're trained to stay in the hip Pocket... And play the receiver's hands Like Tre white style but not as good obviously... I'm not a fan of that technique.. but it seems to be the one that's most employed at the college level Quote

I think everybody yells at cbs to turn their head around and look for the ball Unfortunately, with the speed of the game I just know how hard it actually is... And UB is usually trotting out undersized CBs , who are already at a disadvantage fighting with bigger receivers Quote
PromoTheRobot Posted October 16, 2021 Posted October 16, 2021 Ohio @ Buffalo today at noon on ESPN+. I'll watch it on-demand after the Sabres game. Priorities. Quote
Back2Buff Posted October 16, 2021 Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) It’s really sad to see this fall apart so quickly. Looking like a horrible hire. It’s getting embarrassing again. This sucks. Edited October 16, 2021 by Back2Buff Quote
dollars 2 donuts Posted October 17, 2021 Posted October 17, 2021 Let’s be completely honest, a loss today could have set the program back a few years. I still think 7-5 keeps things moving forward and upward. They cash in though at 6-6 or worse…oh boy. Won’t be a bounce back year next year. Quote
