I try to pretend it'll be better without so many key injuries.

Learned some things recently...

Fred is a stud... One of the best Cougs of all time.

HarlemCoug

10/16/17 8:04pm

Hoge is the hope but I thought he was done.

indojoe

10/16/17 8:14pm

I think most of us saw a difference in the team with Hoge at the helm.

rtNelson

10/16/17 8:18pm

Hoge seemed to make plays that Tanner couldn't make all year previously

HighHorse

10/16/17 8:30pm

Yeah that play where he ran back into the EZ and then fumbled was great

There really needs to be an eye roll button. Such a dumb post.

10/17/17 9:17am

At least it's true. Gotta admit it was a really dumb move on his part

Cougrrrs Roll

10/17/17 12:28pm

I know, right?!! When is Ty gonna put a QB out there that never makes mistakes. I'm sick of it...

Refugee

10/17/17 5:17pm

The point is not the one dumb play

10/17/17 4:44pm

Even with that play, Hoge showed more promise at QB.

HighHorse

10/17/17 10:45am

Obviously, the coaches do not agree

Cougrrrs Roll

10/17/17 12:30pm

You can't really make that case since Hoge is injured and by some reports

HighHorse

10/17/17 5:24pm

Beau

eddog

10/17/17 6:03pm

I agree. The offense was back to looking like it could get back to normal

Accipiter

10/16/17 8:45pm

What does it say about Ty's offense that it only functions w/ a mobile QB?

ldssdl

10/17/17 6:54am

I don't think it's the mobile part, I think it's the vocal leader part

cougarbob137

10/17/17 9:38am

Or a teachable QB...

The Chelsea Dagger

10/17/17 3:34pm

Thanks for the post. Not sure it makes me feel better but offers a good insight

dadofkhec

10/16/17 8:24pm

I don't have faith Hoge can stay healthy

BYURider

10/16/17 8:28pm

This is my concern as well, not many runninng qbs make it through a full

CougarsFanSince80s

10/17/17 10:45am

Qbs who run to escape last longer than those who run for more yards.

Shore10

10/17/17 9:43pm

I talked with a connected source after the game on Saturday as we were waiting

Coug98

10/16/17 8:32pm

TH should be taking more heat for the schedule and the resulting injuries

franklyvulgar

10/16/17 8:42pm

True, but BYU fans have been inconstantly calling for better Indy schedules

There has not been any game announcements that there was not pretty significant

Lance71

10/16/17 9:31pm

Yes, I was glad to see the first half of this year's schedule.

j20

10/17/17 8:15am

Maybe if you could in any way connect the two.

Lip Gallagher

10/16/17 9:56pm

Really? THis is what we want - a P5 level schedule. Remember? TH delivered -

Yfan4Ever

10/16/17 10:30pm

Exactly! Some of these comments are so

Cougar4life123

10/16/17 10:47pm

Isn't playing with the big boys what we all want?

che flaco

10/16/17 10:30pm

I love the big games, but frankly we don't have the talent and depth to compete

cougarfan84

10/17/17 1:27am

Our SOS will go down significantly over the next few weeks. The problem isn't our schedule. Our schedule it actually

CObluezone

10/17/17 4:24am

Probably one of the worst comments ever on CB. This is the schedule that BYU fans wanted

Adrielle

10/17/17 9:52am

TH should stop scheduling good teams that will injure our players?? Seriously?

Let's Go Bucs

10/17/17 10:21am

Meh, I think the schedule stuff is unrelated to injuries. They just happen.

Lip Gallagher

10/16/17 9:56pm

It would be interesting to see a statistical analysis of this, but I think you're right. Data point of 1, but it was USU

mvtoro

10/16/17 10:14pm

And even then, at most it might just be a positive correlation,

Lip Gallagher

10/16/17 10:32pm

I was thinking more that you wouldn't see a correlation at all. If there isn't even correlation, it can't be causal.

When your players aren’t as big, as strong and...

CougarBuddy

10/17/17 5:41pm

Good coaching and practices helps depth. Not just a talent thing.

keylimesoda

10/16/17 11:15pm

I'm puzzled how much anyone not on the offensive staff other than Lamb or Sitake

Accipiter

10/16/17 8:51pm

I thought Cahoon emphasized metrics in evaluating the wide receivers

DubaiDude

10/16/17 10:24pm

Seems like Clark rated tight ends as well

viper

10/16/17 10:55pm

And from how they have played, It seems obvious that Detmer rates the QBs.

What this guy said about offense coaches and "just run it" is not acccurate

cougXor

10/16/17 9:06pm

The problem I have with this is this years seems like a pretty typical injury

Lance71

10/16/17 9:32pm

22 injuries on the 2-deep from the press conf. today

BlueBlood

10/16/17 9:34pm

Do you have a list on this, would be interesting to see.

BYUfan92

10/16/17 10:19pm

I don't, but a reporter asked the question to Kalani this morning, and that answer was given

BlueBlood

10/16/17 10:30pm

One of the main quarterbacks

COCoug

10/16/17 9:46pm

Starting QB is always made team captain

HighHorse

10/16/17 9:53pm

Is a good point. I wonder if coaches every make up that a qb got a lot of votes

ColonelMustard

10/17/17 8:30pm

Great point

BYU Boom

10/17/17 7:16am

TheLoneCougar

10/17/17 7:21am

Can you clarify on injuries? Other than QB I havent noticed offense having many?

BYUfan92

10/16/17 9:58pm

1st and 2nd string running backs and Projected best receiver

HighHorse

10/16/17 10:01pm

The hype out of fall camp was the MLP/Bushman duo. Lost MLP a week before season

GOR

10/16/17 10:04pm

Ula is our best RB, by far, no? So an injury to Canada is (sounds bad to say)

BYUfan92

10/16/17 10:04pm

Well, ula has been injured himself

viper

10/16/17 10:56pm

He started the season out injured and they have been taking it easy on him ever since

HighHorse

10/17/17 9:09am

The defense has been decimated by injuries

jhingman

GOR

10/16/17 10:02pm

Chemistry seems to be an issue so often for the Cougs--Never hear it so much

Goliath

10/16/17 10:17pm

Last team we had with no chemistry issues was probably 2006.

jkccoug

10/16/17 10:57pm

I think that post is crap

Cougrrrs Roll

10/17/17 12:56am

It’s complete crap.

Gerald-DeGroot

10/17/17 1:47am

interesting. You predicted Kalani will be gone after next year.

mindzeYe

10/17/17 1:33am

And?

HalftimeAdjustment

10/17/17 4:27pm

just seems strange making predictions about KS leaving and then this gossip

mindzeYe

10/17/17 8:34pm

LOL. Coaching Bias much? What a crock of bull yewt.

Gerald-DeGroot

10/17/17 1:41am

So long as the powers that be can accurately assess the problems, we're going to be just fine long-term. That's the big

CalGTR

10/17/17 4:05am

The portion about the offense is really concerning

CaliWG

10/18/17 7:13am

From the get go I was concerned about the S&C hire and philosophy

ldssdl

10/17/17 6:47am

ImBlueDaBaDe

10/17/17 3:42pm

I've heard the same thing form connected folks about Mangum as well.

TheLoneCougar

10/17/17 7:05am

While the QB as a leader is ideal it's not always necessary

shakarocks

10/17/17 8:11am

I don't doubt this is true, but I haven't truly seen it especially in college FB

TheLoneCougar

10/17/17 8:30am

The IMPACT RICKS college had on BYU BOWL games

FootFAN

10/17/17 7:56am

We scheduled these injuries. Not at all surprising

dallasbyu

10/17/17 8:15am

I disagree that QB #2 is the answer

shakarocks

10/17/17 8:14am

The MLP injury was huge. Detmer's O that he wants to run is built on being able

dallasbyu

10/17/17 8:16am

surely there are a couple other tight ends that TD could utilize

mindzeYe

10/18/17 12:41am

Leadership...Only one name has really stood out all year...Fred Warner...

Bonoman

10/17/17 8:22am

This is extremely concerning to me.

Hawk Talons

10/17/17 8:38am

Leadership and chemistry. I see it differently.

QBarrister

10/17/17 8:47am

Better coaching would make the talent look much better

Coogar2

10/17/17 8:48pm

Seems odd with how much coaches were touting Tanner's leadership and ability

Freddie Cougar

10/17/17 8:55am

If Hoge is the hope for the future the program is in deep trouble

Go_Trojans

10/17/17 8:59am

Yep

Coogar2

10/17/17 8:46pm

Please take off the "Hoge goggles"

Count Cougar

10/17/17 9:18am

Not a single comment about defense is telling regarding your source

CarolinaCoug

10/17/17 2:22pm

Injuries = poor conditioning. Poor practices = bad HC
