“You can’t look at the scoreboard from last year,” Adams said. “They have a completely new team, we have a completely new team. They are at home. They don’t want to lose at home, so we know they’ll be coming with it all and their fans will be all into it. I played my worst game in my college career so I hope I’m good, I don’t got no jitters and I’m ready to go.”
Now I'm starting to see how he ended up at Eastern. If it wasn't completely obvious earlier.

I needed a change for one, but for two, I HAD to go to Coach Haucks rival school.

It's much more of a colloquial or cultural way of speaking than a sign of intelligence. When you write it, you can proof read it. When you are talking, you are going to say things conversationally, colloquially or with filler words. We all do it.allcat wrote:Be careful with that, I've heard DMac say a few things like that and he is a very bright guy[cat_bracket] wrote:I'm sure he meant to say it that way.GRZSLAYER wrote:“You can’t look at the scoreboard from last year,” Adams said. “They have a completely new team, we have a completely new team.

I hung out with Vernon at the Big Sky kickoff. The golf tournament was actually about 45 minutes outside of Park City, so Na'a Moakiola rode with me out there and Na'a, Vernon and Charles Boyett from UC Davis rode with me back. They were all very friendly, cool guys. I promise, Vernon isn't a dummy. He's a bright and well spoken dude. He's from a tough part of Fresno, so that comes out in his verbal diction, but I promise he's not stupid.

I completely agree. He might be the only guy as a fan that has worried me about his playing ability on game day. The guy just gets it done. But I think I would give more credit to Baldwin even just due to his coaching style and his ability to turn his guys loose to truly maximize their ability. That might scare me more than the players. Either way it makes for a hell of a combo!!

The Mohawk and the single black strip below the eye does NOT make you a football "hipster," it makes you look like a fool.
But damn, that kid can play football. I thought Erik Meyer was the best QB Eastern has ever produced. I don't think that's the case anymore.

Re: BIG PLAY VA: 'He's as good as any QB we've ever faced'
The BSC has a long history of being a pass happy league and has had its share of great QBs and great systems, but the EWU show has them all beat. Adams,statistically, is better at this point in his career than anyone before him and, by any metric, as good as anyone.

He was passed over by the PAC 12. It is very fair to say that he is the best "in-game" QB in the nation. May not have Winston or Mariota's pure athletic ability, but he comes to play. The best player in the nation. Period.

Uhhh, no. Sorry. He's outstanding. And in the conservation. But he's not the best player the nation.Anacomando wrote:He was passed over by the PAC 12.

Don't let this distract you from the fact that the griz blew a 22-0 lead.

So who's gonna knock his a$$ out this year? Ha ha just kidding. I'd forgotten he got knocked out of our last 2 games with them.
He's a great player and I hope we can keep his damage limited without knocking him out this year, but we still have to hit him. That's when he crumbles.

Re: BIG PLAY VA: 'He's as good as any QB we've ever faced'
Yes, he's one of my favorite players in a very long time. He will absolutely kill an undisciplined defense without a doubt. But, against somebody like NDSU and their uncanny ability to remain gap sound the entire game and make adjustments, he doesn't do so well. I like to think we're going to be well prepared, able to communicate and play our assignments Saturday. I swear if we start going away from the assignments Saturday...Anacomando wrote:He was passed over by the PAC 12. It is very fair to say that he is the best "in-game" QB in the nation.

Now, as far as the best in the nation? We'll discuss this Sunday. I don't think many realize how good our lines are this year. Pretty confident they're going to be well known Sunday morning. Especially with the LBs and a healthy secondary this year. Just a feeling but I suspect there's going to be some pretty pedestrian numbers put up by the Eagles Saturday.

Re: BIG PLAY VA: 'He's as good as any QB we've ever faced'
He's the best player in FCS in my opinion, but he's not big enough nor fast enough to play with the big boys like Mariota, Petty, and Winston. He's a great imitation of Manziel at the FCS level, which is good enough for EWU I'm sure!Anacomando wrote:He was passed over by the PAC 12.
