2017 Season


F'n Hawks

Recommended Posts

From my understanding of the rules, I would think Arnell has a better chance at getting an extra year since he never redshirted and didn't pass the 30% threshold of games played the year he got hurt. Clive will have a harder time since the injury he got in 2015 wasn't technically season ending and he's asking for a 6th year. However you never know with the NCAA, they have made some strange decisions in regards to granting extra eligibility.

Kick coverage has 3 categories.  This is my analysis - 50% is the kicker and his kick (height and distance), 40% is the talent and effort from the players, and 10% is execution with avoiding blocks, taking on blocks, and containment.  Our kicker was average so that's not a good start.  We had 2-3 good coverage guys but too many average Joes.  We need 5-6 good coverage guys and I think that will be better in 2017.

Overall I think most are too hard on Siebel, that's a really challenging job, punt returner.  My guess is there is hardly a guy on this forum with the balls to stand back and return punts at the college level.

Kicker - Best man win.  Taubs was pretty mediocre last year.

Taubenheim was a Big Sky 2nd team all conference team selection.   That does not indicate mediocrity.

I wasn't aware of the 2nd team honors, just an opinion.  4 of 11 from 40+ yards and kick offs need more height and distance.  64% make percentage.  I expect better.

In regards to field goals, I don't recall that height or distance was the issue on most misses this year; longitutde was. Always wondered how much the cast on his arm most of the season affected his kicking, particularly his accuracy. Big drop-off this year in success from 40+.

A miss is a miss with field goals, the longer they are the more risk of a block because of trajectory.  

I am referring to height and distance in regards to Kick-offs and Kick-off coverage.  The more height and distance the more time the coverage team has to get down the field, get off blocks, make a tackle, preventing the other team from obtaining good field position and/or momentum.

Taubenheim does do a really good job of getting the ball up in a hurry. He struggles to drive through the ball though which is why he is absolute trash outdoors.

What are the general guidelines for medical hardship, have to have played less than a 1/3 of the season or something?  He only played 3 games that year.  

Did he redshirt earlier in his career? If so,  I think that hurts his cause.
