depth chart: Nixon now No. 2 UL quarterback behind Jennings

[ManAboutTown]

How do you explain 2011-2014?

Broadway coming from Houston system, Stewart was underrated DC, Bustle players, landing Alonzo Harris and Jay Johnson (widely accepted as one of the best football minds to every coach here), and turnover margin.

Pretty easy actually.

Pretty easy actually.

So basically better talent.

[CajunNation]

Define esque.

I ask because at HUD's worst he was still 33% better than Baldwin's best.

We haven't seen Hud's worst.

[Turbine]

We haven't seen Hud's worst.

To date we have.

So basically better talent.

Better fundamentals, good fortune, better assistants.

[cajunhawk]

Better fundamentals, good fortune, better assistants.

On a graph, our fundamentals are declining in lock step with the quality of our assistants, as is fortunes, donations, and recruiting ability. The only thing going up on the graph, is available tickets and tailgating, and Scott Farmer's comfort level in the Sun Belt.

That offense would do nothing in this era of college football. Ray can't throw. Period. They can work with him as much as they want. His arm is nothing close to the other QBs, his accuracy is very bad, his decision making is worse. He is not a D1 QB. He's a terrific athlete that needs to be utilized else where.

Btw, do you really have faith in this staff to develop a project QB? If so, where's the evidence?

CAN'T
CAN'T
CAN'T

[zephyr]

Do you trust your practice eye after what you predicted from the offense? Should we?

LOL...

I was comparing him to Desormeaux and I think its a valid comparison. Des couldn't throw either and was moved around because of it. That offense you speak about, was leading the SBC in yards and was amongst the top 50 in the country before injuries derailed it. It was a zone option offense with lots of playaction and LG running the seams and Jason Chery making plays all over. It was a spread offense, not the wishbone

Talent is not our problem Hawk. Watching individual drills, talent is obvious. Putting it all together is the problem. I can assess talent. I did a poor job of assessing the coaching staffs ability to utilize the talent.

Ray has a lot of talent. It's just not at the QB position.

Individual drills? Geez man, who plays on Saturdays based on individual drills
