Just get the MF ball in the playmakers hands from Day 1 MF....that way we avoid the "September Slopes"Damn he ran away from EVERYONE
Semi-related....why is Booby Traore out in coverage there
Freshman Bubba Frazier beats senior nickel Christian Gray for a 50-yard (ish) touchdown.
Yes, we doMaybe we have our Toney
LOL 🤦♂️Just get the MF ball in the playmakers hands from Day 1 MF....that way we avoid the "September Slopes"
Pretty much how 'Bama was playing Keeley in situational downs (albeit he looked much better)...much rather that be Sneed, Ausberry or Talich.LOL 🤦♂️
Gray is supposed to cover Frazier, Traoré is playing in space and should deny passing lanes.
"supposed to" always being the operative word for his coverage skills.
You're saying those three at Drop DE or just as Box Safeties in coverage on crossing routes, etc?Pretty much how 'Bama was playing Keeley in situational downs (albeit he looked much better)...much rather that be Sneed, Ausberry or Talich.
I've been saying it...Maybe we have our Toney
I don't see him cracking the starting rotation. Could see him being as high as the 5th WR though.Kids got that ‘it’ factor. Wonder how he slots into team sets, or if he can make a crack at being a starting receiver for ND
The problem is that slow receiver is where our best receiver plays. And Graham and Greathouse can both play slot too...I don't see him cracking the starting rotation. Could see him being as high as the 5th WR though.
Haven't been this excited for a small, fast, shifty back since Davonte Neal
whatever happened to him?Haven't been this excited for a small, fast, shifty back since Davonte Neal
No no no .... It's what did Davonte do?whatever happened to him?
If we are going to go more under center, he would be a good guy to have align tight to the core of the formation and run jets. Jet from the gun hits too slow in 2026. UC? it shinesIt seems very unlikely that he will unseat any of the veterans but it wouldn't be surprising to see them dial up a handful of touches/plays for him if he really is that dynamic with the ball in his hands. By all accounts he is the most explosive WR, so why wouldn't you try to hit a few big plays with him if you can?
There is a gaping void for a tall, physical boundary receiver but we have at least 4+ guys that can be productive at field and slot... only one ball, if you're getting routes that means you're taking them from someone else. Thats the main reason I would temper expectations.
Agree with his speed he should get 2-4 plays per game just get the ball in his handsIt seems very unlikely that he will unseat any of the veterans but it wouldn't be surprising to see them dial up a handful of touches/plays for him if he really is that dynamic with the ball in his hands.

That kind of coverage they are running is also surely one where they give up the inside release while dropping the end under that route. You do not "cover" that as a CB, period. You are playing with outside leverage. If the QB is able to wait for the receiver to clear and no safety is able to come up and play the ball, it is a completion 100% of the time. The only thing that clip shows is Carr making a good throw and Frazier being faster than everyone so he doesn't get run down from behind.LOL 🤦♂️

Please don't take this the wrong way: I don't want to see Jeffrey play a single meaningful snap this season.They need Frazier or Jeffrey or someone to bring more speed.
WDDD?No no no .... It's what did Davonte do?
