  1. Looking forward to it. Not sure (other than entertainment) what you are wanting to do, but hoping you can mix in some of your stats info (that is so helpful and useful to us) as part of the videos.
  2. My thought exactly - worried I'll see pictures of dead fish floating in their lake. Clemson is often referred to as Auburn with a lake, so....
  3. Thanks, WarTiger. Good explanation on both.
  4. War Tiger, High school situation - Team A has 4th and is punting, kick is made but there is a foul against receiving team. So, thinking PSK issues, if foul is before receiving team possesses the ball, is it not PSK and penalty assessed from previous spot, goes back to kicking team and replay the down (unless penalty yardage results in first down)? If penalty is after possession, then still receiving team ball and penalty assessed from spot of foul. Is that correct?
  5. WarTiger, I get the fair catch rule and the delay for trying to advance the ball once a fair catch is signaled. What I don't understand is why is the penalty accessed at the fair catch spot (where the kick ended once the muff was recovered) under the new rule? I understand it from before when there was no yardage awarded on a kick-off that is fair caught in field of play, but under the new rule, to me it seems that once the fair catch is completed, the ball is spotted at the 25 and then the penalty assessed to move it back to the 20. So you are saying that advancing a fair catch is a spot foul at the point of possession? (Which would has been in the past on punt).
  6. WarTiger, In the above example, did they flag it as illegal touching and mark off any penalty distance? That would really have been bad if not corrected.
  7. WarTiger, Thanks for doing this thread again this year. Always proves useful and good conversation/information. Have you heard of any rule changes (NCAA) for this year?
  8. Great idea and I like the format. I assume it will update and older items moved off when necessary and such. God quick hitter though. Thanks for doing this.
  9. Exactly. One year with Gus, then went on to USM and ASU and developed his offense, probably with some items he learned from Gus and ideas from other coaches. he then turned that into successful QBs and offenses. Does he run something that fits what Gus wants (HUNH, Power run spread), sounds like it is enough of what Gus has recruited for with some possible additions. Which is what we needed. Lashlee only was under Gus, other than one year at Samford. So he couldn't really bring something new/different, just what he learned under Gus. I think Gus has evolved enough as a HC to bring in a guy that matches his system and players to build on what we already have. In the end, production will be defining factor. If Gus and his Coaches don't produce, they will be gone. call me a pumper, but I am looking for reservations at the playoff finals for next year.
  10. Okay, the RPI has us finishing 11-7 in the SEC, but did they have us 10-2 in the preseason? Probably not. So my hope is that we are better than 11-7 in conference play and it begins Thursday night by beating the dawgs!
  11. Good read, puts a better perspective on a 4-3 team that will be tough for our boys. Looking forward to the game, but will have to listen as I dont have the TV connection.
  12. Stat, you usually have great info in all your posts and I look forward to your numbers based analysis. However, I have one bone to pick with you on this analysis: UNFORTUNATELY, YOU ARE NOT IN THE POSITION TO DELIVER IT GUS AND MAKE IT THE MANDATE IT SHOULD BE! I am a Gus fan, like him as the coach of our team, but your points are spot on and I want him to succeed but he needs to do on offense what he did with the defense - bring in the best he can get to make improvements. If he can do that, Gus could stay for awhile.
  13. Good notes, way too early to give up on this team. One loss does not kill us. We needed a loss to learn from, better it be early from a quality team than later and lead to overconfidence. Did not see the game, so glad to know it was not size inside that hurt us as tht has been my concern through the first couple of games - we rely too much on the three and not working inside. We have to be able to hold our own inside in the SEC.
