ScottyIce Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Anyone know if there is a shot at them playing this week? Next week? By Purdue? What a treat it'd be to have them both 100% healthy and playing the next 2 games. 1 Quote Link to comment

That may be based on nothing more than wishful thinking but I've just gotten the feeling from Riley's pressers that Jones is ahead of schedule and Kalu might have been a precautionary hold due to Illinois not really having any air game.

lo country Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 They are both sorely missed. Our CB play has been rather average at best. They always get beat deep, or crossing routes so why not play man. Knock em down or off their route at the LOS. Better than giving them 10 yards to get going. I also notice that they don't turn to "run" with the receiver until the receiver is even. At that point, your beat. That's poor technique and coaching IMO... 1 Quote Link to comment

Made this same comment somewhere else... if he's even he's leavin'. You would think Jackson would be better at this technique because he played safety in HS. He should be used to lining up 10 yards off the ball and staying over the top.... but he's not 1 Quote Link to comment
