CRN on Lexus Gauntlet

by Telemachus on Nov 19, 2008 5:40 AM PST Comment 5 comments

Here's a couple of video clips of Coach Rick on Monday following last weekend's win over the Huskies. The first clip touches on CRN's thoughts about his return to Washington and how he grades himself at this point of the season:

The second clip covers what he would have changed in his decisions so far this season, recruiting and thoughts for next year:

A little premature, perhaps with two games remaining and a slight chance to make it to post-season play.

Forcier

And there it is, straight from CRN’s mouth. If it made sense to play Forcier, he would.

Now, it is entirely possible that CRN and/or the UCLA coaching staff is wrong about not playing Forcier. Lord knows criticism was often lodged at Dorrell and his staff about everything from the playcalling to the documents he routinely stuffed down the front of his pants. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

But we need to keep in mind that we are discussing the 3rd and 4th string QBs at this point. Not many other teams have had to deal with this same dilemma. As 66 and others have noted, lets keep things, and this season, in perspective.

yeah

as far as i can remember, there are two other teams in the pac 10 dealing with this type of QB situation: WSU and Oregon. WSU is possibly the worst pac 10 team of all time (can’t wait for the Apple Cup!) and Oregon has the luxury of running a spread option offense that really only requires the QB to be athletic and make good reads on the zone read play. ORegon also has a ton of really solid backs. So considering our situation, it’s tough to be too critical about what the coaches have done.

Oregon Last Year

To see the fall off from going from a first string QB to a second string — look at Oregon last year.

I am still a Craft fan — his heart is probably bigger than his talent — he always leaves it all on the field.

nobody can ever criticize Craft for not giving his all

He is 1000% sold out for the team.

This is off topic....

but, Does anybody know where I can get a Football or basketball jersey in a 4xl size? I can’t find one on any websites. It looks like the biggest adidas makes them is 2xl. I’m 6’4 and 345 lbs. No way I’m fitting into a 2xl. If there is no way to get one I guess it will serve as motivation to lose weight.
