That exact play has put numerous QB's on the bench in college and the NFL.
I haven't really seen Will called 'frail.' He's slow and unathletic, and he goes down like a sack of potatoes when he gets hit.
Iowa signed a qb out of Florida, Resar that runs a 10.6 100 6-4 , will be fastest qb in the country next year.
It's real easy to tear a rotator cuff or break a collar bone just from falling. It's not about the hit. It's about the fall and how you land.
What are you talking about? The d lineman landed on him with his whole weight. He got smashed into the ground.
True. I crushed my collar bone falling in snow with no weight on my other than my own.
Compared to most division one athletes.
Compared to most D1 QBs i bet he isn't in the bottom 25%.
I don't agree with making a definitive statement that the offense would have played better. Arkansas has a legit, elite defensive end that was largely neutralized because of Wright's mobility. That guy would've had a field day with Rogers back there. On the flip side, Wright made some plays with his feet that Rogers would not have been able to make. We went conservative because of the way the defense was playing; Arnett admitted this in his PC. That wouldn't have been any different with Rogers in there. We've seen it before with Rogers in there.
there is no excuse for either of these. And it’s at least the second time we’ve done that this season.
Arnett isn’t gonna say “we went conservative bc wright can’t throw”.
We went conservative because Arnett coaches scared. We did it when Rogers was healthy too. It’s concerning.
We scored 14 and got a touchdown called back on a BS block in the back penalty on a long run by Mike.
Roger’s mouth breathers have created a new stat called “Touchdowns Almost Scored”
If??? I know Will looks very unathletic on an SEC field, but I suspect he's still more athletic than the vast majority of people on this board were when they were in high school. As far as I can find, he runs somewhere between a 4.5 and 4.9 40. Assuming the 4.5 is hand timed and the 4.9 is something accurate, that's still a pretty good high school athlete. I knew plenty of people that claimed a 4.5 or 4.6 40 in high school and they were generally good high school athletes, and they probably ran somewhere in the high 4's with a legit time. But the only ones that got any legit college interest at that speed were FBs, LBs, and DE, and none of them pulled an SEC schollie.
To be fair, if you are a typical sixpacker, that's roughly equivalent to an SEC Dlineman falling on you.
That's obviously true with respect to the SEC, but I have played different sports with or against a few good high school athletes that went on to play punter or kicker in the SEC (and watched a few others in high school), and it's amazing how slow (and small) they end up looking when they get on the field in college. Granted they weren't absolute burners in high school, but certainly on the faster side. And they have looked like they were moving in slow motion moving after a bad snap or on a fake or covering down field. Granted that's a little different than a designed run (and I'm sure none of them are really excited about covering down field, so they might not be running all out), but probably pretty similar to scrambling as a QB.
LOL at Rogers running anything close to a 4.5. Hand times aren't off by .4 seconds, so whoever put that number out was just flat out lying. I might could believe 4.9...maybe.
These people are either didn't really get hit when they played football or never played football. way too many times that you got hit back when I played, you couldn't remember which side of the field your bench was on. The whole time you're trying to remember what you're doing, where you're at, or what day it is you can hear your coach scream, "Don't make me come out and get you! If I do, you're not coming back in!"
