I finally get it: - A paradigm shifting moment watching EIU

Ok guys, I think I finally get what Babers is trying to do. Maybe i'm late to the party but let me tell you my thoughts. I, like many others, was extremely confused as to what the heck I was seeing these past two games. I went back to watch EIU film to try and figure it out particularly on the defen...

Re: This defensive scheme makes no football sense to me

My hope is that McCloud has been keeping it vanilla because he's got something special cooked up for IU next week. Hope you're right...I was hoping they would make some adjustments today and work on playing the corners/safetys closer to the line of scrimmage against a weaker opponent. IU has athlet...

This defensive scheme makes no football sense to me

First and foremost, as many have mentioned, it was great to get a win. Thought the offense and defense played much better than last week - even though it was a much weaker opponent. Still, this defense makes no sense to me. I'll start out by saying I have never coached college football but I think s...

Some Insight into the WKU loss

I think we all can agree that the loss last night to WKU was extremely disappointing. I was there at that game and have a few random thoughts now that a day has passed. (warning: long read) 1. First and foremost, lets give WKU some credit - That was a good football team. (at least offensively) That ...

Will Matt Johnson beat out Matt Schilz?

Continuing the trend from spring ball, rumor has it that Matt Johnson and Matt Schilz are getting equal reps with the 1's in camp. It has become clear to me that Clawson may be getting fed up with Schilz. I think that Schilz starts the season but won't be surprised to see Johnson if the offense sput...

Re: Kyle Bryant dismissed from team

Stinks to hear...wonder what he did

My best guess is that Rossos moves back outside to tackle. Then you have a competition between David K, Huettel, Wharton & Byler for the starting guard position.

Close to call but I bet David K or Wharton would win that job if that's how it goes down.

The Team takes a step back today...

Hey guys...thoughts from today's scrimmage won't be as detailed as I did not attend, and only can go from word out mouth Very disappointed in how the team scrimmaged today. It sounded like they took a step back, at least on the offensive side of the ball. Defense however, was excellent...especially ...

Re: 2012 schedule

My prediction for this year...12-0 and a national championship I know you were joking, but we have to go 14-0 to win a national championship. :D ha you're right...we'll go 14-0 then!!!!!!! I do think that 8 wins and very reasonable with the talent on this team and the good MAC schedule. Dare I say ...

Re: Anybody going to the scrimmage/practice Saturday?

mc ... thanks for an excellent writeup! I'm a third of the country away so hearing an account like this and following practice reports online give me my fix of Falcon Football. Good stuff you've got there. NP Mark, I enjoy doing it. Won't be able to go this Saturday nor the Spring Game. Does anybod...

Re: 2012 schedule

My prediction for this year...12-0 and a national championship ha, seriously I'm actually very interested to see the team play at Flordia. With that Gator defense returning 9 or 10 starters from last year, (not sure of the exact amount) we'll get to see exactly how this offense will stack up - Becau...

Re: Anybody going to the scrimmage/practice Saturday?

According to these write ups the only negative for a team that went 2-7 to close the year is backup OL. Thats awesome. I'm guessing that was supposed to be sarcastic...No, the team is not perfect. But for the first SPRING scrimmage I though there was an excellent balance on plays made on both sides...

Re: Anybody going to the scrimmage/practice Saturday?

+1 Flip... I defiantly agree...Schilz has a chance to be an all MAC player with the offensive weapons he has around him. Last year it seemed the majority of the pressure came through the middle when Bojicic moved to tackle. This year, I see the pressure coming from the edges with a young LT. RB's an...

Re: Anybody going to the scrimmage/practice Saturday?

Hey guys, so I went to the scrimmage Saturday and here are my thoughts: I thought first of all that Wagner had an excellent write-up on the scrimmage http://www.toledoblade.com/BGSU/2012/04/01/Level-of-play-rises-in-BG-scrimmage.html - The team as a whole is about 5 times ahead of where they were la...

Anybody going to the scrimmage/practice Saturday?

I will be waking up early to make the 3 hour drive to catch the open practice this Saturday. Really excited to get my first look at the team. Here's what I'll be looking for: - How much has Schilz improved - Clawson has said that Schilz has improved as much this year as he did last year. I'll be cur...

Re: 2012 schedule

Boy, am I glad to be talking about football again... I must say, I had a little "oh crap" moment when I saw this schedule - here's why: Even though I think the MAC schedule turned out favorable with playing Miami and Kent at home, the beginning schedule is BRUTAL... The first five games of...
