Sept 8 | Ball State

[tussin]

You can’t help but wonder what that half would have looked like with Book at QB

 

[Valpodoc85]

Soft as ten ply

 

[SonofOahu]

bite your tongue lol



i'm almost ready



yup. this is on BK for prepping/calling and letting his team come out like a second tier MAC team



I don't think he's lost, I think he's thinking... WTF did I do this week



I'm going to quote myself in honor...



TURRRRRRIBLE



you always get drops. BW, when he has time, has missed open rcvrs and locked in too much on those not open.



There's problems all over the O

You so drunk, you quoted yourself!

 

[Irishnuke]

What a f’n embarassing first half. My God.

 

[tussin]

Hainsey's development since last year is disappointing. He's taken two steps backwards. He's a real liability, now.

Hainsey looks like he’s still hurt

 

[Who'saWildManNow]

Wimbush lacks any ability to read the defense and hit a receiver in stride.. he’s waiting for the play to break down almost every time.

The kid has legs but he’s proving time and time again, that’s all there is.

I was pretty tuned up and watching at a bar but I thought I saw a different team against Michigan.

 

[ickythump1225]

I know that you just don't replace two All-American, top ten NFL draft picks but the o-line is not getting push and quitting on every other play. I didn't notice this last week.

I mean how many years in a row does Alabama, Clemson, etc. lose All-Americans. This is Ball State. This is on Kelly for complete and utter lack of motivation. This isn't a talent issue, this isn't "we lost 2 All-Americans." This is just a team that is playing like it doesn't give a shit. This has been a consistent problem in the Kelly era. Up for big games, play like crap vs. middle tier teams.

 

[pkt77242]

It is a bad combination of our o-line sucking and Wimbush being really slow to read defenses.

 

[Irish YJ]

Ball State is not better than scUM.... this is game prep and play calling, along with some of the same performance issues.

That's on BK for not having this team ready.

This. If a team sticks with their defense past the first read Wimbush is toast. If he can't use his legs to escape the play is over. I'm ready for Ian.

 

[nsisk157]

-14 ND, 2H... hammer time.

 

[Irish YJ]

Hainsey looks like he’s still hurt

that's what I though. He and Kareem should sit the rest of the game

 

[SonofOahu]

I haven't been paying attention in the off season, that may explain it. He doesn't look like he has any force on his punches. He looks like he's just there to take up space. Even when he gets to the second-level on some of the run blocks, he just kinda takes up space. You usually see OL try to crush guys.

 

[IrishBoognish]

Wimbush is not a good quarterback.

Time to put in Book and prepare for the Phil era.

same story i'm afraid as last year. when teams start focusing on the run game (BW and RBs), we are one dimensional aside from some 50/50 balls.

I almost want BW to stay in so he is forced to overcome this shit without QB designed runs. I'm OK with him running if the pocket breaks down.

 

[SonofOahu]

Oh, man. I guess they can't play the audio of Kelly asking his kicker what the fuck is wrong with him.

SoO... how was the antique?
lol

 

[anarin]

Brandon needs to face the adversity. Could be a learning moment (shouldn't be in this position)

At this point I feel wimbush hasn't progressed from last season. It may be time to turn it over to book for good. Wimbush looks like a typical running qb

 

[Cali_domer]

No worries, just need a third coat of paint. 2023, BK will have this ready.

you sir see what reality sees

 

[Irish YJ]

JT, Coney, and Gilman are my favs thus far this year.. A lot of young ones coming close.

 

[ARALOU]

Nice to see Tillery straighten out. I was worried about him and his temper early in his career.

 

[SonofOahu]

Good, man, I like it. Totally worth the price. Hard to find those damn bottles, though. Secondary-market pricing for Weller 12 is like $130, or something... all because of the Pappy heritage. Absolutely ridiculous.

Almost as ridiculous as trying to call a slow-developing screen pass, on our own goalline, when this D is running delayed blitzes.

 

[ickythump1225]

I don't think there's anything Wimbush can learn at this point. The kid is a senior (academically) and in his second year starting. He's playing BSU. If he ain't got it by now he ain't gettin' it.

 

[pkt77242]

Coney has looked slow today moving laterally. A couple of times he had the angle on the QB and was still to slow.

 

[Irishman77]

Book or Bust...its that simple

yup, can't find it here in ATL.. my buddy on the Left Coast said he picked up several bottles for like 25 or 30 bucks... insane... my buddy said he loves the mild sweetness. like honeysuckle or something. my mom likes a whiskey/coke every once in a while, and loves honeysuckle. wanted to find her a bottle so she can have a few after here treatments are done and healed from surgery.

thanks for the feedback brother

 

[Luckylucci]

Certainly not good enough, but it hasn’t been by almost all involved. Those making definitive statements, probably didn’t see last week comin either.

yes, on some, but he's looked really good on a few too. he looked like a beast last week.
i'm betting the D comes out pissed at the end of the half. i'm more confident in Clark than with O coaching right now
