Kaden Saunders puts the fans on notice.
- Thread starter NitneLiun
- Start date
Why should we trust them when they've had 13 games to prove it, and haven't delivered?
So Kaden.... if we have enough talent what do you think the issue is? QB or coaching/playcalling?
I don't think it's the OL... they seemed to be an improvement this year.

So he is taking offense at what fans are saying on Twitter? Has he watched the same game film as we have watched on t.v.? Evidently, they don't see a problem with their play unlike the uneducated fans who are paying their way to play eacn week.
no. but to tell a group of people that they will be "surprised", when said unit has woefully underperformed the whole year sounds like a very defensive statement which hasn't been backed up by results.
A WR did not catch a pass in the Peach Bowl until 13 minutes left in the 4th quarter!! If the problem isn't the WR room, then we have major problems somewhere else. Because that stat is almost unbelievable.
Is he referring to the QB? Is there a riff between the WRs and Allar? I’m just spitballing here, no real knowledge of the situation.
Your reference to "paying fans" seemed to suggest some sort of entitlement beyond admittance. I must have misread.
This guy was a top 100 recruit but he has barely played in 2 seasons. No wonder in-state Ohio State did not recruit him, too small, slow, and soft to play wide receiver.
Well, the proof should be on the field. Our WRs have rarely made big plays and not much yards after catch. If we have the talent prove it in 2024 starting with great spring practices. I watch other college games and see better play in other teams WRs. But I must say i like our TEs-with great talent and depth and Reynolds coming. A WR needs to emerge as a consistent threat or we will not take the next level-I want us to make 2024 playoffs.
Step one should be to move Dinkins to wide receiver. At least he goes after the ball and seems to get open. And catches it
What ever happened to Jerry Cross....we do have two young guys in Schlaffer and Rappleyea coming which would allow that move.
A 4 star recruit who came in thinking he didn't have to work to play and told everyone at the beginning of this year there would be big changes at WR from him and others yet here we are ... And a top rated portal WR who came in and did nothing. As I said in another post we have a WR room full of 4 star recruits that are severely lacking in talent or development or both. That falls on the WR coach and Franklin. If the new OC wants his own WR coach to be brought in I think many fans would be more than happy with that

Take those ANALYTICS and stick them were the sun don't shine. Not you Bob, just in general so sick of the ANALYTICS garbage.What do the ANALYTICS.say?
We seemed to have success at WR under Stubblefield and with Clifford at QB. An abomination this year under Hagans and with Allar at QB. Allar rarely throws a player open, hits him in stride, or even attempts the pass until AFTER the receiver is open — which is usually too late. He has poor vision, poor pocket awareness, and is terrified of throwing an interception. Thus the rocket armed 5-star throws an overabundance of check downs — and usually inaccurate. We had better hope the new OC is a QB whisperer and/or a miracle worker, because this has (and has all season) the looks of another Morelli or Hackenberg.
the rocket arm did not produce on the interception throw. Had he put the ball ahead of Evans that could have been a catch. That throw was what we would have expected from Clifford.
Allar has to remain a serious run threat. Clearly he can run an produces yards when needed. Clifford running was key and when he started running less it showed.
Good football teams shouldn’t need to rely on their QB as a runner except under extreme circumstances.
Allow me to introduce you to the RPO and Triple Option.
There were guys running wide open in tne Peach Bowl that I still can’t believe he missed.
On to Beau!
I am not sure what game you witnessed but from my seats I saw a lot of primary receivers covered well by Ole Miss. The fact that so few plays were called for the WR's tells us what is thought about the WR room.
Amazing watching Wisconsin play the supposed elite speed CBs of LSU and the SEC. How is it Wiscys WR can get open against those CBs yet PSU WRs are covered like blankets no matter who they play ... Talent or scheme or QB or combo of the above.
Yeah, the LSU wrs had a field day too. Everyone has great receivers but us. .. sigh ...
The game played Saturday. I have seen them all live this year. Most open receivers I have seen all year.
If you didn't get the point the first time you won't get it the 2nd attempt either.
all 4 CFP teams have QBs who pose run threats. the two who were close = FSU and Oregon had mobile QBs - that is the FSU before injury.
I do find it funny that people can tear down the entire group of wide receivers but allar is hands off.
Hope new oc can get our offense going consistently next year.
Something definitely seemed off this year between the QB and WRs. I’m starting to think that Clifford was a far bigger leader on the team than I gave him credit for.
Clifford has NEVER received anywhere near the credit he deserved.
