Parkers Pros

It’s hard to put your finger on exactly what it is on offense. It’s not always about the play calls. Some of it is the players not making plays. Cause we had a receiver drop a bomb touchdown. Our quarterback overthrew our receiver by about 6 inches on another long pass play for a touchdown. Coaching wise teams are now on Jerry’s fake hand off runs. We need to do some play action and throw off of those so they don’t bite so hard on him running. Where are our short little dig routes on short yardage. We have short quick guys. You can’t tell me that they’re not gonna win most one on one matchup to get a little 3 yard pass. And where are our tight ends. One or two catches a game? I feel like we have a ton of weapons.

So anyone know why Bluitt was recognized on Senior day?

We have no energy, anywhere. Everyone is dead. No defese, we are chasing. Getting nothing from the Klee line. Young looks better than a lot of guys right now. Verhoeff looks like a freshmen tonight. All over the place. We need to find some juice and quick!

I guess we’re gonna see how deep our corner room is. Two of our top three are now out for the year.

We are definitely getting better. To me a lot faster than I thought it would be. The transfers are better than we thought. And those we’ve lost to graduation or the portal, have affected less negatively than we thought. The cupboard wasn’t completely bare, but this staff is really coaching them all up. They now have belief. And expectation. And expectation to win. No more, “we hope to get a win“. To be fair, I don’t know where we stack up against the SU‘s, yet. But this is the first time in a long time. I truly do believe that we are at worse, on par.

Lots of good stuff on here I agree with. If you want to keep people all game, the product has to be interesting. I very much agree we are moving in the right direction. I am excited about our trajectory. And we all have to remember this is year one. It should only get better. So let’s have a little patience, and try to stick it out even during the ugly games for the whole game to help these kids along. It’s a bad look recruiting wise if half the building leaves in the 3rd. And Coach said it, we need to get out of our seats on first and second down on defense. If we truly wanna have a dominant home-field advantage. They feed off our energy. So we need to help them with energy.

I also think every time he stops a breakaway or makes a huge save there should be a Homer Simpson “doah”

Agree. I thought they sacked him by his hair though?

Need to stop the bleeding. At least a first down.

Quick bubble screen / pass left to get the Jerry jitters out! Perhaps even a keeper..

Surprised we haven’t seen an update today on the posting from Coach Schmitt on the recruit from Omaha..

Awesome pickup!!

Unfortunately sometimes scorched earth is a good way to get rid of blight. Turning over the roster, even a good one, if not totally bought in to your system, means it’s time to move on. New coach has been successful at each level. Let him bring in his team. Next couple yrs might be tough. But let’s see what he can do. Change usually brings energy..

Anybody make it to the practice today?

Anyone else having trouble with the Defensive Preview on UND360? Coming up with an error 404 on the page?
