Coach Rab Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 6 hours ago, ETXfan16 said: I don't doubt lefties can play qb. I mean look at Boomer Esiason, Matt Leinert, Vick, Ken Stabler.. I just wonder if there are certain scouts, coaches, GM's, whoever, who don't want a lefty qb. They talked about this on the radio the other day. The offensive coaching has to be done backwards. The RT becomes more important than the LT, the RG becomes more important than the LG... and with the way most things work, most of the best lineman were trained on the left side. Reads are also backwards for OCs and QB coaches 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have little doubt this a move to tank for Tua. This has been in the making every since they decided to part ways with Tannehill. I think they knew even then they planned on throwing this season for Tua next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they knew even then they planned on throwing this season for Tua next year. 3 first rounders and 2 seconds in 2020. Add 2 first rounders and 2 seconds in 2021. Miami has the collateral to revamp the team. Just how are you going to rebuild it? If you’re leaning Tua over Justin Herbert or Burrows from LSU then paying for a left tackle isn’t high priority. Wonder if Herbert deciding to come back for his Senior year could hurt him like Jake Locker a few years back? Two completely different players. I mean Locker was a 50% passer in college.

Would be a great storyline for the commentators, but OU ain't there yet. Maybe after we get some defensive backs who are tall enough for the roller coaster. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, I can remember when Pasadena wasn't either. I pay pretty close attention to recruiting, and I don't even remember hearing Hurts' name until he was winning in Tuscaloosa. What grinds my gears is, 'bama did sign the guy, he ends up winning the starting job and quarterbacking them to a national title, then they kick him to the bench in favor of Tua. Then he has to come in the fourth quarter of the SEC title game and save their season, and they kick him to the bench again. So now I just really want to see him get a shot at knocking the Tide out in January. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, when I finally looked into him, I read that he had wanted to play in Texas, but no Texas programs really wanted him. Hell, 'bama only took him to essentially fill a slot, never expected him to be as good as he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ1000 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 The race is either Tua or Louisiana qb. The iron Bowl and Bama vs Lsu games probably decides the hesiman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tua missing a game with an injury is going to hurt him and Burrow just keeps lighting it up anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seen a poll and it was 1- Burrows 2- Hurts 3- Tua Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
