Jonah's 40 time is ammended to a ridiculous 4.32

Bo Jackson? Is that you?

His only glaring weakness imo is he's not very elusive. It's why

mantis mutu

6/19/17 9:30pm

Hifo was not favored over him

cougarmanguy

6/19/17 9:31pm

Not favored by Detmer, perhaps--but certainly favored early by Taysom.

mantis mutu

6/19/17 9:34pm

I think that's fair but to me that goes to taysoms

cougarmanguy

6/19/17 9:35pm

Absolutely. Jonah shoulda had a bigger year last year based on his ability alone

mantis mutu

6/19/17 9:37pm

It also didn't help that JT's routes took longer to develop

6/20/17 1:20am

While tht's not an invalid point Taysom bought himself plenty of time most games

mantis mutu

6/20/17 10:12am

Hifo was our go to receiver last year

i noticed that trend too, just really bad luck on some bobbled would be

Was hard to watch him struggle. He's been an exciting player to watch from high

6/20/17 11:43am

The threat of Mangum to Jonah 3-4 times per game could keep the defense honest

That combined with a TE threat to the middle of the field opens up all sorts of

I'm very optimistic about Bushman. I think he's the real deal

the play that will break nearly any teams back is the backside post. If you can set up the blocking, I'm sure Jonah and

Sure he is. Watch him earlier in the season. Put him in the position to do

Lip Gallagher

Maybe so. But if I had to choose a receiver to work in space, I'd go with Hifo.

mantis mutu

So he is elusive but guys are always draped over him? Doesn't sound elusive

TNT

6/19/17 9:43pm

When the only passes we completed last year were five yarders

cougarmanguy

6/19/17 9:49pm

Agreed. Last year wasn't really a fair test of Jonah's capabilities

TNT

6/19/17 9:49pm

But Hifo was clearly more effective in those situations. That was my only point.

I trust Detmer will have the receivers blocking much better this year.

Any idea when in the AZ game that screen was? Can't find it.

not sure why you remember hifo being better in any way.

And through the 1st 5 games? (Mind we're comparing a JC All Amer w a true Frosh)

what about the first 5 games? I don't know what you mean.

Trinnaman is definitely faster & was more dependable on several levels.

I hope Hifo has a great career, here's to hoping.

Not with you on this one. They played different positions. Hifo played in the slot where he was able to showcase his

Half of that is letting him run under it

Not quite as off the mark as Riley in Southbend, but almost as deflating.

I think his arm in that game is over-hyped. His legs were still what opened

I haven't really looked at the numbers, but

Y05

6/20/17 1:02am

Nebraska--like Texas--over-respected Taysom's speed a bit, I think.

mantis mutu

6/20/17 9:21am

The offense changed on him too.

Y'zFan

6/19/17 10:22pm

True

TNT

6/19/17 10:24pm

I think some of that came from his foot not being totally healed

cougarmanguy

6/19/17 10:25pm

That very well could be. His trajectory & touch were never pretty

mantis mutu

6/19/17 10:28pm

His plant foot was a problem all year

I felt the same way. His passing was sharp.

I'll buy you dinner if he actually runs that time at the nfl combine.

What did Jamaal run? 4.59?

Yes. And it just seems nobody actually runs as good of a time at the combine as

Are those hand timed? How do they measure it at pro day?

BlueFrog

6/19/17 10:35pm

That's my point though. Pro day times way faster than combine times.

Seems like Sorenson exceeded expectations also.

He had 28 returns last year, recorded 11.5 yards per return. Arguably, his best

the thing kills me is that the difference is actually meaningless. No one can catch a ball in a full 4.22 stride, and

1/2 step is all it takes, especially from the offensive positions

The difference between Taysom Hill's 4.44 and Ross's 4.22 is not half a step, it's at least 2-3 full strides.

not even comparable, the straight line acceleration and top end speed are different, and of course two people running
