‘23 Recruiting Forum: Official Texas A&M Pregame/Game Thread

I'm not gonna hate on Ollie lane. He's not up to the task to being a starter but I wonder why the coaches are in year 3 and don't have anybody better than him. That's a failure on the coaches part.

 

[Odiodin]

Has Heupel ever been held to 7 points in a half here?


Feels wrong…

 

[nashvol1]

Coach has to either let Joe sling it and deal with consequences or put in Nico.

Also if you are not going to let Joe sling it then you have to take close field goals in close games.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Just put the kid in

Not gonna happen. We paid good money for his cushy sideline spot.

 

[KB5252]

Amén, but it kills the culture if we bench them. Next year is our year!

Not with an inexperienced QB.

Bama will beat the brakes off of us

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Neither/nor. Ellarbee’s had two recruiting cycles, and his guys paved the way for 120+ rushing yards in the first half against the same team that held Bama’s to 23 the whole game…behind how many 5 stars?

I agree. Lane is the only one really hurting us right now. The DTs for aTm are just much faster/stronger than him.

Because the guy better than him is hurt.

 

[johnfnkelly]

Today he probably would be. Moat people don't do well making their starting debut against a top 5 defensive talent unit.

This defense isn’t good lmao we should be up multiple scores

 

[Orange.]

Halftime ribs are a good thing.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Not with an inexperienced QB.

How do you know?

 

[TechnoVol]

The one thing Joe can do is throw the quick sideline pass. For some reason Heupel quit calling it after the first couple of series.

 

[KB5252]

How do you know?

It's possible I guess..... But history and statistics aren't on our side.

 

[Ashevolle]

Their line can get after it and I'm sure they'd love to see the change.

 

[UTgrad2015]

I love Eric Berry he doesn’t deserve to watch this filth

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Come on CBS.... show the EB hit on bama, the "helicopter" hit. That's the best one

Yet when a mid three star ol guy commits the cheerleader here jump all over you if you criticize. Fact is Ollie is playing because none of the guys ellerbe has landed are worth a damn.

It’s a problem.

He was literally on a worse team than this one is

Because our WRs can’t block. Bru was the only physical one.

Well that’s why Heupel should just play him now for the rest of the year. That way he isn’t inexperienced.

 

[buffaloblue]

Big second half. If Milton struggles do we give Nico a series?

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Defense isn't playing bad, a&m helping a lot.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Big second half. If Milton struggles do we give Nico a series?

I would.

 

[Govolsman98]

08 team was an abomination

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Nope, Milton will have to be taken out by injury before Nico will play any meaningful snaps.
