LPTiger 5,202 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 What an inconsistent game. He catches our longest pass of the year and then drops 2 in a row and misses a block on a DB. He also didn't even attempt to come back to the ball on the pick 6. I wonder if consistency and effort was the reason he wound up at FIU to begin with.

Viper 3,139 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 (edited) It's not just him. J. Johnson dropped two. There's been at least 6 drops today...all of them key 1st down conversions...one a sure TD. Edited November 4, 2023 by Viper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbird 60,580 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 He had a rough day. Our TEs took away at least two TDs from Quez 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbone4jc 2,241 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Easy catches that that are dropped just cannot happen. I don't know the answer as to why it happens but it's been a bugaboo all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScotsAU 1,343 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 I’m not going to make character judgments. I don’t know the guy. All of the receivers and tight ends have just been very inconsistent. I don’t know if this is our current coaches versus linger effects from Harsin. But I’m starting to think it is our current coaches. Even the newer guys are struggling. I’ll say this. Marcus Davis is on the hot seat. Hate it when that happens to a former player. But the position group has to do better than this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronMan70 3,277 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) I'm a fan of Fairweather but we have to be honest. With the drops, missed blocks, holding on offense, holding on special teams, most negating big gains, it's not possible for a TE to have a worse game. He probably agrees with that too, so hopefully it's just an anomaly. Edited November 5, 2023 by IronMan70 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our AU recruits are dropping, our portal guys are dropping, and upperclassmen are dropping. All day I’ve watched players catch balls with one hand and ours can’t do it with 2. Frustrating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trend line isn't good. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And at 6’ 30”, he can reach up and grab it out of the air. I’ll put money on him. Besides, how fast you gotta be to go 8 yards and turn around! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck4334 66 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 I’m watching these same receivers every week drop pass after pass but they still play the same guys. Yet you get Jyaire Shorter and he doesn’t play not one snap. Coach Davis has been telling me and my son a different story every week. Play someone else and see what happens. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey 16,777 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 What does coaching have to do with simply catching a ball? Either a guy has good hands or he doesn't. I cannot see blaming the dropseys on a coach. Route running, blocking, carrying out other assignments, those things are coaching. Dropping a well thrown ball? That's that's the player's own problem. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck4334 66 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Coaching comes into play when your playing the same guys and getting the same drops missed blocks etc. Hope y’all do know that one WR has left the team because of issues with said coach Davis. Ask around about which receiver left the program not to long ago. You will be surprised who it is and how it relates 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did randomly give out a mid season scholly last week to a walk on WR. Looked at the participation from PFF from yesterday Jyaire Shorter - I'd assume you say Nick Mardner - Didn't play. So I guess him The rest of our WRs on scholly played yesterday Ja’Varrius Johnson - Played Yesterday Shane Hooks - Played Yesterday Koy Moore - Played Yesterday Malcolm Johnson Jr. - Played Yesterday Camden Brown - Played Yesterday Omari Kelly - Played Yesterday Jay Fair - Played Yesterday Caleb Burton - Played Yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck4334 66 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Yes the WR that transferred to auburn from Hawaii left the team for some time alone. This is the young man that came here with Coach Davis. Now do you really think nothing is going on in the receiver room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What has been some reasoning for your son not playing? TBQH most will agree the offense is a bit of a disaster all season and barely showing life by now. Every WR player yesterday except Shorter. I'm sure it's frustrating. I know he's got another year of eligibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck4334 66 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 I’ve been holding back from talking about team stuff but now it’s time I let this alumni know what’s going on. First of all Coach Davis seems to favor certain receivers that are practice all stars. Ok that’s fine and dandy until game time and it’s drops every where. So why isn’t a proven receiver that led the nation in yards per catch only has three targets all season. Robbie left the team for a couple is days so he didn’t play yesterday. Nick left cause he says coach Davis is playing guys that are not better than him. One thing I do know is my son had a meeting with the HC and was told it’s up to Davis about playing time. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
