Re: Recipe for a Title
Was a bit worried after last week, but after yesterday fully agree. Gameplan and execution were both good. Just came down to a coin flip and arguably a non-call there at the end. Looking forward to the rest of the season.

Re: Recipe for a Title
Our ceiling is good enough to win every game left on our schedule.
Need to bring that level of execution each week and take better angles on defense.

Re: Recipe for a Title
I thought he looked great too, no fear, good arm and can run. He’s gonna be a good one. Just curious though what you all thought about his decision making? I guess if he can get the ball where he wants it no problem, but damn he threw into double and even triple coverage more than once. Like I said no fear.appstatealum wrote: ↑Sun Sep 10, 2023 12:20 amLove Joey A. Kid has "it". No hesitation and throws a pretty ball. Many of those deep balls were just great pass break ups by Carolina DBs. In his small sample size, he is the best I've seen since 08.

Re: Recipe for a Title
I think he’s everything you just said. He’s very talented and super confident, which leads to him throwing the ball into some questionable coverages. I think we will see him throw some really dumb looking INTs this year, but we will also see some amazing passes and catches for the exact same reason.appbio91 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 10, 2023 3:04 pmI thought he looked great too, no fear, good arm and can run.

Re: Recipe for a Title
Hats off to the players and staff. That was about as good as you could look in a loss. Man we are competitive with Carolina. After two games, my only real concern is running Nate 25 times a game.

If we get a couple of backs healthy I think you’ll see his carries will decrease. But he looks great and gets stronger as the game goes.

Re: Recipe for a Title
I think we will see incredible growth from Joey this year. Don’t discount how huge it is to have Frank Ponce coaching him up all season. A few times last night, all he needed to do was hit his check down. That will come, if he keeps giving his all, he will be VERY good.appbio91 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 10, 2023 3:04 pmI thought he looked great too, no fear, good arm and can run. He’s gonna be a good one.

Re: Recipe for a Title
Anyone know if there’s any reason for Kanye not getting touches to give Nate a break? That big of drop off in production?Saint3333 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 10, 2023 3:47 pmGreat objective post for those scoring at home.appgrad95&97 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 10, 2023 3:42 pmHats off to the players and staff.

Re: Recipe for a Title
Because Kanye isn’t ready for that roll. There is more to playing the position than taking a handoff and go. He is still learning the position.GSUwasGump’sFallbackSchool wrote: ↑Sun Sep 10, 2023 7:06 pmAnyone know if there’s any reason for Kanye not getting touches to give Nate a break?

Yessir and they like to run the ball. We have time but need to get batter at stopping the run.

But if you’re telling us he’s not ready to run the ball v an FCS GWEBB up 21 in the 4th quarter then that’s a problem. He got those carries and time last year in those types of game scenarios, what happened? Is he dinged up or recovering from injury? Just doesn’t make any sense.

Re: Recipe for a Title
If you listened to Mountaineer Talk, Haines said that he is still learning the blitz pickup piece. It’s not a problem. It’s part of the maturation process. Those carries last year were under completely different circumstances. Putting someone back there that can’t identify and pickup a blitz will get your QB hurt.311neers wrote: ↑Sun Sep 10, 2023 8:06 pmWe understand not playing against UNC (kinda) as it’s a big game, P5, close game, TV, cameras, has to block etc…AppSt94 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 10, 2023 7:10 pmBecause Kanye isn’t ready for that roll.
