There is no proof that Herman is a good talent evaluator and when it comes to picking his assistant coaches there are questions about that.
orlando is a good DC. Beck, I'm losing faith. And check Houston for example. Who's the best Defensive linemen in the country? Who recruited him?
Bad example. Ed Oliver was one of the top recruits in the country. Credit Herman for recruiting him, but it had nothing to do with talent evaluator.
I wholeheartedly agree with this. Split the carry's between Watson/Ingram and use Young in short yardage situations. Watson and Ingram can get into a good game rhythm and Young is a powerful back. Stick with getting the ball to Johnson against smaller DBs, LJH over the middle, and Duverney on deep shots. You can sprinkle in some Heard, Burt, and Moore here and there, but keep getting the ball to the main three.
Greg Ward Jr. ,Duke Catalon, all the complentray pieces on the UH d-line. And Ta'Quon Graham didn't look to bad. Needs to bulk up but he looked like he can have a promising future.
I was screaming at the TV. I thought that call was horseshit. He jumped trying to disrupt the pass, but all his momentum was moving forward so he couldn't avoid the hit. I hate some of the new rules. I thought that was a tremendous effort as well. Maybe we should just bring back leather helmets. Ain't nobody gonna try to lay a head to head hit with them things on lol. Maybe we might be talking about different plays. There was one play where one of our d-linemen got into the back field went airbourn to disrupt the pass and accidentally put grazed the face mask of the qb and the qb flopped to sell the flag.
What struck me about that was earlier in the game there was a blatant hands to the face right in front of the ref that was never called against Maryland.
We got Tulsa next week. USC week 3. The first year Maryland saw a Texas team with a new staff attempting to run a new scheme. This year we saw a Maryland team playing in honor of a fallen teammate. They got us in transition, and this year they were more hungry than last year.
I agree with these sentiments although historically it takes an OL a game or two to get their mojo together. What we hope for here is gradual, steady improvement and minimal injuries.
Totally agree. The one non-call that stood out to me I think did have an impact was the horse collar that wasn't called on Brandon Jones punt return. Jones got injured on that play and the Horns should've been starting the drive in Maryland territory. Not saying Sam wouldn't still throw an interception, but it could've been different.
