We desperately need Leavitt, Young, and Jackson to get here and get to work and try and get on the field early.
Just set a record of liking 5 Oline post in less than 5 secs. I did that faster than Charlotte is getting in our backfield. Didn't think that was possible. Our OLINE sucks
I like the freshman kicker.....Between McGuinness and this kid, we may not have to worry too much about FG's for the next 3-4 yrs.
i liked the way Barker is making an attempt to step up in the pocket when the pressure comes off the edge. when we actually have a line (in the future), that will pay off giving him more time to throw and let plays develop. its troubling watching a QB run away from the pocket at the first sign of trouble
Barker looking good imo. Hope they continue starting him this year and into next.
Oor OL is poor but we are scoring. and thats a good thing. Lets see if we can score the whole game!

Barker has more time because he does exactly what you said, steps up into the pocket.

my only concern is he cannot kick it into the endzone on kickoffs, in fact he is usually about 5-10 yards short... against good teams field position is too important to be giving 10 free yards every possession
Fabcat some may laugh at that comment, but I witnessed CSU lose at Air Force last year in some part due to wind. Only these were swirling, sometimes 75mph+ winds. It completely shut down CSU's prolific passing game last year, and the Zoomies who rely heavily on the running game won the game costing CSU a share of the MW title. In high winds the running game is the way to go. Not that Air Force wasn't a decent team, but it did matter.
That's Hugenin's first career sack, right? Somewhat of a sad stat, but congrats to the guy for 5 years of hard work paying off there
If we get Drew a good offensive line in the next couple of years we could take that "next step" that everyone wants.
Farrington Hueguenin. Can't even spell it. Sounds for all the world like a dude in a tweed jacket with a pipe....
He just kicked it through the endzone on after he made the FG. It could be that he's just a bit young yet.
Barker is more decisive, and has a quicker release. That's something.
He'll start taking off routes now.....trying to tank Barker and get Phillips to start.
