Rickie Collins

Is Williams hurt?

Is not burning a year of eligibility a reason not to play Carney? I'm old school, so I like saving eligibility, but with the transfer portal does it really matter?
He looked fine on Saturday.
All of the QBs threw passes when there was a timeout, including Carney and Williams.
 
What’s hilarious is that some posters were ripping on Pena for leaving because ā€œhe should have stuck around to try to make Collins betterā€.

He’s missing wide open guys constantly. How the hell is a WR going to ā€œmake the QB betterā€ when that guy simply cannot pass? The QB still has to throw the ball, and Collins can’t except for random lucky miracles once in a great while.

If this is all we had, I’m going to be glad the entire team didn’t just tap out and hit the transfer portal instead of being upset at the guy who did. If Collins started the year, we’d be looking at an o-fer season. I suspect everyone on the team knew that well before we did.
You could give Rickie Collins prime Jerry Rice, Megatron, and Randy Moss and I think he would still look like a D2 QB.

We've been outscored in the first half on a consistent basis for two years now. We play catch up a lot. This one is not on Rickie.
Sure it is. He is running the offense.

edit: we lead at half time 7 of 13 games last year, worse than our win loss record, but not sure that’s ā€œconsistentā€.

All indications are he’s not in the programs long term plan or the program isn’t in his long term plan
I can't imagine going through this punishment for something I'm not good at after the money dries up. I'd move on
 
I think winning obliterates most of these ominous, fretful and darkly-tinged posts, but maybe that's just Dr. Obvioso talkin'.
Losing is such a drag. Then again it makes winning that much sweeter.
My take, we couldn't do any worse than overmatched Rickie...try some other guys for extended periods. Maybe a game manager type will emerge.
 
This is why all the ā€œwe don’t have the talentā€ comments are utter nonsense. We have plenty of talent. What we don’t have is a remotely functional QB. And football in 2025 requires a good QB to have a good team. Period.

The whole sport revolves completely around the QB. If you don’t have a good QB you are utterly and totally screwed.
I just can't imagine how profoundly frustrating it is to be a wide receiver on our team right now. During the Clemson game, Angeli was just throwing dimes all over the field and our passing offense looked and felt like it did with McCord last year. And now we have the passing attack of a high school team.

Trebor Pena knows. ;)
