Nixon growing into role as Cajuns starting QB

[duggie85]

Duggie, you bring basketball into your argument just goes to show how weak it is.

I don't really have an argument. In multiple posts, I've stated I don't know the solution to our problems, only that what we've seen the last few games won't cut it. Whether Haack or Davis is the answer? I admittedly don't know enough (whether inside info or fball smarts) to know that.

As far as bringing basketball into this, that's all you buddy. I'm not the one who said those wins & stats don't count. All you.

Also before Tuesday night's game these were there stats. Look at both passing and running, nearly identical.

----Ah check out the TDs and interceptions!!! I hate this because I don't like talking against any player, especially a kid like Haack---I hope this is a more Nixon has than less has Haack thing----That said give me a QB that can hurt you both with his arm and legs!!!

Pretty sure he says they don't count for Marlin, never heard him say it didn't count for the players. Wouldn't surprise me if nwst could beat txst.

Stats are meaningless without the details. We analyzed the crap out of our QB situation, Boomer. It's a fact that Nixon is a dual threat QB. But his arm isn't much of a threat right now. How much of that is on him, the receivers and/or the coaches... is the question. I'm not impressed with his arm motion or accuracy, his command in the pocket, or his decision making. He runs extremely well. But you cannot assess either Nixon or Haack effectively with the multitude of other failures going on around them. And the focus should start and end with coaching.

If you leave coaching out of the QB discussion, you don't need to post.

Two different sports Duggie. Also there is a huge difference in D1 basketball and NAIA basketball.

Nixon is a tremendous athlete, a QB he is not.

No he correctly stated schools like LOYOLA,Louisiana College, NAIA schools should not be viewed at the same level with even bad 1A teams. He (I think)and I don't think you're doing well losing in basketball to SLC middle of the pack teams like McNeese, and NSU. I am certain we counted every 1A win and loss.

This is the first time I see the passing ratings for Jalen and Brooks. Are these accurate because I find them to be stunning stats. 129 to 108, WOW.

I want Nixon in the game. He can play. I just really dont want him at QB. What I've seen from Haack wasn't great but it's more promising than this. I still don't think he ever got a fair shake.

This was their rating before the stAte game.

Please tell me that after you were stunned, you woke up and evaluated the details and then realized how meaningless those stats are.

He got an opportunity to play... but you are correct that he has not gotten a fair shake. I'm still skeptical of Haack and Nixon as QBs. It's not their fault. Our coaches have prepared their team mates and the offensive play design so poorly that it sucks to be the QB. With an offense that sucks, Nixon is probably the guy to throw in there and make chicken ____ out of chicken ____ this year.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Really ____es me off that the coaches are the reason we have been so limited at QB. I thought Haack had a chance to be as good as Ryan Aplin was for ArkSt but Haack doesn't have nearly as good of a coaching staff as Ryan did.

I still have hope in Haack. I have lost hope in Nixon though. His coaches and line aren't helping, but just look at his throwing motion. It's so horrible. Find another place to play him where he can succeed and maybe even get some looks at the NFL. Because the guy has talent.
