Scratchtown Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 RFr. Gates beats out Sterup. That needed to happen. I caught some flack last year for saying 84 Cotton shouldn't be on the field. On the list not four TE's he's the fourth. Looks like someone else saw it the same way I did. I wasn't sure why he was seeing so much time last year. Very poor blocking. Jonathan Rose taking the spot. Good to see. Him and Davie should be fun to watch. A lot of the word -OR- on the depth chart. I like it. Gonna be some battles ongoing for a few weeks. Somebody is gonna make it clear. I'm rooting for Imani. Doesn't look like he's just fading away like some have made it sound. Way to Reeves! Locking down the starting center job. Should've been out there starting last year. I hope Reeves can stay healthy and have a kick ass season. Not hard to figure out why he played. Check the last name. Kevin Williams, Where is your (-OR-) next to your name? Oh...nvm, you aren't a starter. LoL Mocking our own players, stay classy! Well, he's not a walk-on from Wood River, so Power T doesn't like him. +1 I do like a ton of the guys. I just don't like whiner's who whine and storm off throwing a tantrum about technicalities. Herm Edwards said the other day on ESPN radio. "If you aren't the best, you don't play. If you are a back up, that's it. You are on the team. Your job is to be a great teammate." Now, KW is gunna play, and play quite a bit. That's ok. That's good. It just came off as very childish with the display and initial reaction to being called a "back-up". If his head is clearer now, so be it. Move on. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 As a coach I hate the "or" but I do the same exact thing all the time. Makes my life easier Quote Link to comment

First you mention that you are happy to see Sam Cotton 4th on the list at TE and using that as an example of the coaches seeing what you did. Then, you say you like all the "OR"s on the list implying that those players are equal right now and battling for positions. With the word "OR" by all the TEs, I'm not sure Cotton's name being last means anything. Completely read that wrong. Did not see the word -OR- as including 84 Cotton. You're right though, it does. Disregard statement about what the staff sees. As far as me personally, I've been unimpressed. I hope he steps it up. Play more like Ben did. Ben was physical and aggressive and knew how to finish a block. Like Enhance says, I still think it means he's at the bottom of the four. I completely agree with him needing to step it up, or, at least one or two of those guys really need to step it up. Just not sure if the order really means much. It might, we just don't know. I'm not surprised that Carter didn't just run away with this like most of us thought he would. I have heard from an ex player who talked to an ex coach that he has troubles catching the ball in practice. I know, it's third hand info, so take it for what it's worth. Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I only see 1 -OR- on defense. Does this mean there won't be 19 blackshirts this year? Not sure about that but I feel confident that no punters will get one. Quote Link to comment

Red Five Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Why wouldn't Sam Foltz deserve a Blackshirt? That guy is phenomenal. Makes no sense to not give one to a punter who can flip the field and make life easier on the defense. Didn't Jesse Kosch have one back in the day? Quote Link to comment

But Henery's leg was so big a defensive tackle's blackshirt could barely wrap around it. Quote Link to comment
