  1. I know in an earlier thread his fortitude was questioned. given all the preseason hype for SM. Do you guys think his play will regress? "McClanahan issued a team-high 36 walks and nine wild pitches in 2017, which should improve in 2018 because control is one of the last things to come back after suffering a Tommy John injury." Control is also the one thing that might not ever come back. https://www.thedailystampede.com/2018/1/10/16872318/usf-baseball-shane-mcclanahan-named-perfect-game-preseason-all-american-mlb-draft-aac
  2. Losing Merrell will hurt. But you gotta hope the three all conference players will build from last season and take over as leaders. AP coming back is nice. If Mohl has the bullpen going, we will be a hard team to beat.
  3. I don’t think we are being oppressed. I think the blueprint has been simple from the beginning. The power five wanted autonomy. They settled with creating a system that forced G5 teams to play them in order to get a shot. That does give them a lot of power in scheduling. In the end I believe the P5 is much closer to breaking off than they are to expanding so it is what it is. The G5 is in a lose lose situation and we all agreed to it.
  4. Just curious, Assuming you had the opportunity win one, which trophy would rather have in your case? The CFP National Championship trophy or the BCS version. I personally like the crystal ball. Just seems more regal to me.
  5. Attacking the playoff committee for what is deemed a "Bias" is only going to lead to separation. If a G5 teams want a seat, they have to attack the fact that they cant get P5 schools to schedule them on a regular basis. Calling out the "system", will cause the system to exclude you, especially when you aren't needed.
  6. He gone. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2753211-report-qb-jacob-eason-expected-to-transfer-to-washington-from-georgia
  7. From their wiki page. The No. 12 ranked Knights faced No. 7 ranked Auburn, and defeated them 34–27 to close out their undefeated season with a 13–0 record. After the win, UCF athletic director Danny White proclaimed UCF to be the NCAA FBS Division Football national champion. The claim sparked considerable controversy and debate over whether the College Football Playoff should be expanded. What are we calling considerable? From what I can tell, most analysts just gave this one thirty minute segment (if that), decided that this would have no weight in the expansion discussion and moved on. Its like they are reaching for apples to make this seem like a good idea.
  8. A little disrespectful in my eyes, I would have us at least in the top three The article also announces a few preseason All- Conference selections. Redshirt sophomore LHP Shane McClanahan, senior RHP Peter Strzelecki and OF Duke Stunkel Jr, were all named to the AAC preseason all-conference team. Here's to exceeding expectations. Also, apologies if this has already been posted. I know the article is a little dated. https://www.thedailystampede.com/2017/12/29/16809514/usf-baseball-picked-to-finish-5th-in-aac-mcclanahan-strzelecki-stunkel-on-preseason-conference-team
  9. It’s not a loser mentality, it’s what you signed up for. Take it or leave because the system doesn’t need any of the G5. If you want a chance at a seat in the playoffs, you have to schedule a team better than Maryland and schedule two of them. If that can’t happen, call them out about that. You can’t just pretend to be something you’re not. It just makes the G5 look like a joke.
  10. I don’t understand why we should cheer this as an attack to the system. All G5 schools agreed to this. If you hate the way things are with CFP, you should have been advocating for your school to find a good D1AA conference to switch to before the change to the playoff. We shouldn’t be attacking the system. There’s not enough money or interest for the G5 to win that battle. We should be finding a way to be valuable to those in the system. That way they might be inclined to include us. Otherwise let’s just create another Division and be done with it.
  11. If you have to claim it, it’s not real. Also UCF’s resume would not equal the eventual champions. They will have beaten two of the top four teams in the nation in consecutive weeks. Who got a chance for to play those games is irrelevant Sorry, but claiming this title will just craft more separation. The power five can say “ you’re right you should be a national champion, the G5 should have their own”. Just call them out on the field and call it a day.
  12. Yeah, I don't think you need stats to realize that we were better this season than last. Our DL was much more disruptive, Augie was much better in coverage. And we were much better at taking the the football away. I don't have to time break down film for you but , a lot those Ints were scheme created
  13. There a lot of flaws in an argument that's based on journalists telling the "truth". Not saying that he's lying, but he probably doesn't know the entire truth of what happened at those schools or the reasons why they chose who they chose.
  14. Why write this at all. It does nothing for the article and just serves to put us down.
  15. So you are saying that last season we were over matched athletically?
  16. He is very athletic and plays with aggression. A bit raw but super fast for his frame. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/6690580/59d52d20f561260f2850be2b
  17. This kid pretty good. A little undersized but still has a lot of room to grow on his frame. Plays incredibly smart and very physical and I personally know he has a lot if integrity. Interested to know what others think. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/6132070/59c906ea0428cc0824f91a7a
  18. https://www.hudl.com/profile/4260528/keyon-helton i like his aggression when he comes downhill. Good ball skills too
  19. That's fine and dandy, but every coaching still wants their guy, to run their offense. Q is great, but there are a lot of systems that he can't run, an offense has to be adjusted to fit his mold. If strong believed that Flowers was the type of QB to run his offense, he would have offered him as a QB in high school. i'm not saying Q is bad and they should have started someone else, just that they are probably a little happy about the idea of getting their guy in their system. To be honest they probably really like O and have spent a ton of time developing him to run their system. they didn't have that kind of time with Q. Just had to role with it.
  20. This coaching staff and Q have been an odd couple since day one. I wouldn't be surprised if they were a little relived to be able to put in a QB of their choosing instead of one they inherited. I believe most staffs feel that way. I think the quote is more about the staff getting their for their system guy than about Q.
  21. no problem. I really like the way to ball seems to jump out of his hand on the 9 route.
  22. After this season, I think overlooking special teams in kinda par for the course.
