Re: Depth chart is done
After watching the Jacksonville and NC game Saturday I’m not worried. Both top 25 teams and they were very sloppy. Last years Cats could hang with both of those teams although Jacksonville has a stought D line

Re: Depth chart is done
As much fun as it is to troll the group, especially a couple of guys who get way to serious, don’t let it be at the expense of a player. CB spins the ball like nobody I’ve seen at MSU for a while. It’s going to take some time to get him, the team and the game plan ready for a drastic departure from the last 3 years offensive strategy. I have no doubt that when his time comes, Choate will have the tools and plan in place to make it work.
Till then I can’t wait for the heartburn that will be caused by TA and TJ on the field and Kassis dropping bombs to them out of the backfield. How would you like to be the linebacker drawing that coverage detail?

Re: Depth chart is done
I wonder what Choate will do if we go say 8-3 this year but TA is only an average passer. I think he will be better than that but do you think Choate looks to move to Rovig or Bauman in that case. I think he likes the running QB more than he likes to admit and will ride that hoss as long as he can.LIBBYCAT wrote: ↑Mon Aug 27, 2018 4:49 pmAs much fun as it is to troll the group, especially a couple of guys who get way to serious, don’t let it be at the expense of a player.

Re: Depth chart is done
One thing we know about Choate after opening up the QB competition after last season is that every position is up for grabs at all times. The best players will play, as it should be, and that's the way it should be at all schools, yet it's not always the case.technoCat wrote: ↑Mon Aug 27, 2018 5:19 pm

Re: Depth chart is done
A little off topic, but kind of not. Anybody watch the Wyoming/NMSU game? Wyoming made NMSU look like they where running into a wall for the first 50 minutes.
Something like 2 first downs and 9 yards rushing in the first half. Maybe I’m remembering wrong and it was negative yardage in the first half.
*****I know NMSU is one of the worst every year.
I’m hoping for a statement made this Thursday that channels a little Craig Bohlness.

Re: Depth chart is done
It was negative yards. Wyoming is going to have one of the best group of 5 Ds in the country. Their line closed every running lane the second the ball was snapped and were all over NMSUs QBs. If we look half as stout I'll be thrilled.asstastic wrote: ↑Mon Aug 27, 2018 8:35 pmA little off topic, but kind of not. Anybody watch the Wyoming/NMSU game?

We can't be 8-3 overall, fyi. we'd have at least one playoff game with that record.technoCat wrote: ↑Mon Aug 27, 2018 5:19 pmI wonder what Choate will do if we go say 8-3 this year but TA is only an average passer.

None of you have been paying attention over the past 2 years.

Re: Depth chart is done
This place is hilarious. Tom spends the entire fall telling everyone on here that TA is a much better Qb than people are giving him credit for and no one even notices. Then he posts one smartass comment and people snap to. We have replies like this one, speculation that he is trolling(he’s not), and a suggestion he’s being facetious(BINGO!!!). TC88 is as high on the Cats as anyone including TA at QB.1984TwoMinutesHate wrote: ↑Tue Aug 28, 2018 6:41 amThe phuck is wrong with u people .... what kind of posts are these??

Re: Depth chart is done
He means we would play 12 cause with 8 wins we would most likely have to make the playoffs. My point was just saying if we had a really solid team year but the QB play was lackluster(at least throwing the ball) would Choate really shake things up next year or stay with the status quo?Cat4LifeHouseDivided wrote: ↑Tue Aug 28, 2018 8:37 amWe can be 8-3 overall because we have an 11 game schedule.

Re: Depth chart is done
Not reading his previous posts on the QB position, how is anyone supposed to know he's joking? Especially when he calls out Baumann specifically? Looks like his trolling worked, though, as it's now the topic of the thread.utucats wrote: ↑Tue Aug 28, 2018 7:49 am

It appears Tom has watched too many episodes of South Park. Looks like he was part of the Sarcastiball episode. Where they turned football into a game using a balloon and players hugged each other instead of tackling.
