Benard Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Sounds like Dailey looked pretty good and taylor looked ok but was off on the speed of things. more on qb's Quote Link to comment
IrishAZ Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I hope JD does well. I would love to see some quick legs in the backfield a la McNabb. Not to mention he's a great kid. IRISH! Quote Link to comment
joshuavacek Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 He is a great guy, but if he is starting, it means all the recruits brought in were a bust, especially Zac. I want to see Zac start. Quote Link to comment

He's got some good legs but callahan turned him into one of the worst runners I have ever seen so who knows. He ran scared last year and even looked slow he was running so timid and worried about sliding and everything else. His frosh year I loved his legs. Quote Link to comment
joshuavacek Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 True he was a better runner, be he would have been running all of the time instaed of working on getting through his progressions, like he should have been. He just did't have much of a chance last year. It was too tough of a transition for him and everyone. Quote Link to comment

Callahan was genius last year not letting JD get hurt. Who would we have gone to if he would have went down? The cupboard was left bare, and BC was doing what he could with what he had. Keeping JD healthy was a top priority. Everyone seen at TT what would have happened if we would have had to go to option #2. Maybe with some depth JD can take a chance w/his legs and make things happen and flourish this year. I'm sure BC didn't coach Dailey to run out of bounds on the last play of the Southern Miss game and not even give us a chance to win. Quote Link to comment
Blackshirt34 Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 That was his own 'call' but i agree and think he will try to do more by himself this year if the passing game is going anywhere. Quote Link to comment
DaveH Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I'm sure BC didn't coach Dailey to run out of bounds on the last play of the Southern Miss game and not even give us a chance to win. Sure he did! I can hear it now. "Ok Joe, what we need you to do is if you get loose, run out of bounds instead of trying to win the game." Quote Link to comment

He may be able to run for all those yards, but when he's hurt how well did Atlanat do? How many times did he get hurt? Quote Link to comment

While the circumstances are the same, I wouldn't call Joe Dailey Mike Vick Quote Link to comment
Pedro Guerrero Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 I don't even know if he is that good of a runner. When he had the chance in 03 he really didn't show anything. What did he have 1 good run against Utah St? He did nothing against ISU and he played most of the game. Quote Link to comment
skersfan Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Joe played well in 2003. Just when was that? He never faced a fresh 1st team, he never played when the game was on the line. He never faced a top team at anytime. He got hurt nearly every time he was on the field. He would not have been able to run the option offense or the QB dive offense, he did not have the skills last year to run this offense. I am hoping he has developed them, but if you really think he was good in 2003 why didn't Frank play him? He had many problems with fumbling in the prior offense during practice. You beat on Callahan for not doing this and not doing that, but he was protecting a china doll that had to run the offense. There were no choices on options. And I agree, if Joe is the answer this year we have some real problems. Hopefully he has improved, because I really like the kid, but if he is our starter come fall look for the same type of season we had last year. He may know the plays but he can not hit an open receiver and that does not change. He has been playing for at least 12 years, if it ain't here now it's not going to be. Quote Link to comment

If he was a genius we would of made a bowl game. With a back up what would of we went? 4-7? big wow. Quote Link to comment
