    LOL....i have always agreed with your assessment. Idiots think running QBs get hurt less than/same as Pocket Passers.

    Even a 240lb PG gets knocked out of games consistently with all the running.

    IF TR is the guy next year....he will get knocked out atleast 4 times again next year. Its only an 11 game season ppl.....

      PS, Moses is an AA QB....bad comparison...

        He threw the ball 55 yards in the air to Herring for a TD against Mo.St. The idea that he can't throw the ball more than 20 yards is stupid.

          Why? He thows the ball about 10 yards at a time and moves the ball down teh field. How do you think he became an AA? Chicken and egg.

            And, I'm not askign for TR to be Moses or an AA. I am asking for our coaches to call plays that move the ball and don't go for the homerun on every play. Call plays for our little limp wristed QB that can't throw the ball but a measly 7 yards in the air.

              We have an excellent coaching staff. Other than the bone-headed decision on the halfback option, the game plan on was there. The execution was wanting, however. Defense was exceptional and our ST's clearly were superior. UNI, to me, was too one-dimensional with Rennie, and especially if he was hurting, it allowed our DC to focus on him with out mobile LBs. The DL did a nice job clogging up the middle and the LB's took over. Secondary also turned in a nice job. Experience (all seniors) showed. Was nice visiting this week. Give my regards to Cap'n Cat!!

                He got everything he had into a long pass at Carbondale and it went 48 yards in the air.

                  Yeah, but when running the pistol offense with a QB who isn't 100%, it's hard to win. Carlos couldn't bust off any big plays to take the pressure of TR, either. Oordt dropped a pass that hit him in the hands and let a shrimpy CB steal an INT from him on another. Our defense let a WR run over 50 yards for a TD that should have been intercepted or, at worst, tackled at the point of reception.

                  In the end, we have to give Lehigh credit for showing up and playing the game well. Too many people in the last few days have sounded like UNLV fans after UNI beat them in the tourney, complaining about how the "better" team lost. Strikes me as being a poor loser.

                    Re: Wow, Folks.

                    Lehigh had many Seniors on both sides of the ball, so we were playing a more experienced team. Experience does have something to do with it. Also, I don't understand the continual downfield passes. Can't our receivers catch a ball on a 10 yd slant and then run another 15? Our opponents seem to be able to do it, doesn't UNI have the talent to do that as well?

                      10 yard slants require the ball to be thrown fairly quickly, do they not?
                      Thus, I guess they are impossible for our team.

                        Arm strength is about velocity, not distance. TR can't throw slants and quick outs because he doesn't have the velocity to get it there in time before the defender reacts. His skills make us completely inept in the passing game.

                          How did he make a couple pass inside 10 yards to the wide side of the field then?

                            Then he didn't get "everything he had" into it, did he? Did you even try to read my previous post or do you just choose your own reality?

                                The following comment was left on WCF courier site:

                                WHAT A DISAPPOINTING OUTING YESTERDAY. THE DEFENSE PLAYED WELL MOST OF THE GAME, BUT THE COACHING STAFF, ESPECIALLY ON OFFENSE WAS OUT COACHED. SALMON HAS ABSOLUTELY NO IMAGINATION CALLING PLAYS! WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE LAST COUPLE SERIES DID WE PASS ON FIRST DOWN? HOW ABOUT SOMETHING OVER THE MIDDLE TO THE TIGHT END.

                                LEHIGH HAD NO FEAR OF OUR OFFENSE AND BAITED RINNIE TO THROW LONG. ALL THREEE INTERCEPTIONS WERE UNDER THROWN. IT LOOKED LIKE RINNIE COULDN'T PUSH OFF HIS RIGHT LEG AT ALL. BLAME THE COACHING STAFF STARTING WITH FARLEY, FOLLOWED BY SALMON. MAYBE ITS TIME TO CUT THE TIES WITH SALMON, WAY TYOO PREDICTABLE.

                                SPECIAL TEAMS KILLED THIS TEAM YESTERDAY, NOT JUST THE 3 MISSED FIELD GOALS, BUT THE PUNTING WAS TERRIBLE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE FIRST PUNT. THREE STAIGHT SHANKS FROM INSIDE OUR OWN 20.

                                UGLY, UGLY UGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
