Niko is in impressive company!

Similar to what Danny Hurley did at Uconn. Uconn definitely had some talent, but what seperated them from the other talented teams, were how exact their screen game was. Which includes the physicality of the screener, but also how the dribbler pressed to the basket forcing help and leaving...

It seems like Fleck wants the biggest offensive lineman in the world since he's been here. If your huge and not small and athletic, your not going to be pulling much. Generally speaking size helps against a pass rush and for straight ahead blocking. Whichever the reason, it's incredible how...

Lindsey's biggest knock eventually will be his lack of athleticism. A QB who can run is the new norm in the NFL. Ones that can't are the anomaly. Drake should watch tapes of Big Ben, similar bodies and games, but Ben had great footwork in the pocket to avoid the rush.

His video reminds me of Pharyl Payne. It's nice when a physical big likes the paint and isn't staying out on the 3 pt line. A body badly needed on a bit undersized team.

I hope we blitz AK ,from the corner, inside lb, Safety, outside lb, waterboy, mix it up, don't rush 4 if 4 aren't getting there. Id rather potentially lose by being aggressive than to watch the first half of the Cal game all over again.

While Niko has been a very good coach at many mid major places; only his 1 year at Drake was there a big improvement in record. Furman won 9 games the year before, 11 wins his first year. He did improve the wins in 1 year at Drake to 17, from 7. CSU won 11 the year before Niko, they won...

Some people only eat vanilla ice cream.

I also feel like Drake is a decent enough athlete to roll out on occassion, or naked bootleg when the entire defense is overplaying for the running back. Give a defense something else to look for. Try a screen pass to rb's, wr's, and even te's.

Ijeboi seems to be the 2nd best rb. Is he playing behind upper classmen unjustly, perhaps so. People sometimes mix up acceleration with top end speed. He has acceleration, vision, balance, and power. I haven't seen him with a big enough hole to see if he has top end speed? I remember Maroney...

I agree the Qb sneak should be tried. One hinderance is I think all the off line starters are 6-4 and taller inside. They need to get lower than the defensive line to get a push.

I am an idiot, but even I would know if you have a young but talented qb, you never rush just three, ever! If I was such a qb, please rush just three so I have 4 seconds to throw the ball. Please don't mix up who your blitzing. Please play vanilla so my 5 new off line starters know who to...

In hindsight, McConnell should have played McCarthy many preseason series. Nix played many quarters of the preseason last year. Not sure on the other '24 QB class.

Last Years QB's though 2 games. McCarthy's 2nd start. Only Maye looks very good early. C Williams 400 y 3 td 1 int. Daniels 433 y 3 td 0 int Maye 500y 3 td 1 int Pennix 430y 1 td 0 int, with a great running game. McCarthy 300y 2 td 3 int Nix...

This game looked like the Lions and Rams games. Oline folding like a deck chair. QB getting tons of blame as WR's are running double moves and taking 3 seconds to get open when qb has 2. Where are the quick slants, the screen passes? Hell fake an end around to JJ to open up something? We...

maybe trading DT Phillips wasn't smart after all. Teams need players who do the dirty work, even if they aren't good pass rushers.

It also says keeping Isaac Asuma wasn’t a bad move either? Duh a few coaches say he has a chance to be a pro?

The Chet Holmgren's, Jalen Suggs, Tyus Jones types, all top 10 players in their respective classes, will almost never play for the home school, they go blue blood or today go somewhere with top NIL money. Not just here, but in every state that doesn't have a blue blood in it. I have looked...

We are going from a 5th year SR, who is known for his accuracy, to a redshirt freshman with a big arm. I would be more shocked if you said he was crazy accurate.

His game is similar to Cade Tyson and Durkin, although Durkin is now 220lbs. 6-7 long wing player who was a bit of a 4, who has upped his outside game to play sf in college. Very good shooter, average athlete.
