He’s implying we don’t have the money to cut these guys loose and pay their buyouts; so if we want to get rid of them it has to come from Tom’s salary (like the 200k cut he took to get rid of Sheridan) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks guys...didn't realize that. Makes sense. CTA has a huge buyout regardless so he is plenty safe. He can tinker for a few years before he get's into any real danger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm confused why this has bothered anyone? Not that it has you, just mentioning it. Surely there are a fair amount of universities that were bothered by Covid... is it really a big deal that a coach did that? Idk. When I heard that, I didn't blink an eye. I thought it was smart lol 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes if your late to read a guy coming open by the time with that motion you get the pass off well...that's a disaster waiting to happen. His legs also were a big help in the past. He didn't have the time or the legs this year so it just kind of snowballed. Never did figure out how to throw with touch either. I should say that he’s a good kid, I’m just talking about not being a fan of his football skill set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should say that he’s a good kid, I’m just talking about not being a fan of his football skill set. Once he stopped or couldn't run anymore, he was limited. Neither our offensive line or are most good enough to let a quarterback sit in the pocket and dissect the defense. You have to make quick decisions or get out of the pocket and buy time. In all high level FB it's a bit unrealistic to think you can just sit in the pocket for 5 seconds. Based on some other feedback, it sounds like the scheme was as confusing to the players as much as anything. The line couldn't hold people and the WRs were not getting separation. Regardless, if you go 2-10, guys are going to leave. Penix was exciting when healthy and provided some of the best moments in IUFB in a loooooooooong time. I wish him nothing but the best (as long as he's not in the BIG). Edited December 6, 2021 by OGIUAndy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thirdgenhoosier Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 On the subject of QBs, one name I heard that we might be interested in is former Utah QB…last name of Brewer. He got beat out mid-season and hit the portal. I have no idea if there is any truth but for the sake of conversation, anyone have any thoughts on him?
