Nuss is actually hurt...

I am working on a video to show that Nuss is actually hurt... there's evidence in the Ole Miss game. He started throwing with a different motion after the first 3rd down -- Adams got manhandled and Nuss got crushed... more on that later. I had to go back and chart every offensive play... and I can see why we kept checking out of runs. They were showing a 6-man box the majority of the first half... AND contrary to popular belief and a quote from the head coach... they only dropped 8 8 out of 24 plays in the first half... 33% of the time. What was really interesting is why we line up in a 3 point stance every time we run the ball -- unless Nuss checks out of the play -- dead giveaway... Anyone interested in more?

If he would’ve hit that wide open Hilton TD we would’ve won. I think he’s hurt, and because he’s hurt he’s lost all confidence. He looked really good in the Clemson game too so nobody can tell me that the injury hasn’t gotten worse.

Sounds like something an 8U flag team could figure out. Joy. Have a feeling this data will make me even more pissed.

What are you talking about? The truth telling Brian Kelly already told us he is on the other side of the injury, pretty much good as new.

Good stuff and spot on. This is what I’ve said for the past season and a half. Guys like us watch and know, but apparently the staff thinks they’re so talented that DCs won’t be able to tell what’s coming? The egos on this staff are all timers.

So basically he is going to be one major hit away from being a JUCO level QB behind an offensive line with more holes than Swiss cheese? Great.

While he’s absolutely hurt, I do love the level of hysteria and and internet sleuthing we’ve been reduced to. I mean Zapruder film, “Don’t Fuck with Cats” type stuff. Image

Thought it would be interesting to post the play chart … I’ll stick to the video. One last thought to break the narrative, LSU did run the the ball 7 times on first down in the second half.
  • 9:44 – 1st Q: -1 yd run (1st & Goal at MISS 6)
  • 14:53 – 2nd Q: 9 yd run (1st & 5 at MISS 38)
  • 4:17 – 2nd Q: 1 yd run (1st & 10 at LSU 32)
  • 10:31 – 3rd Q: 5 yd run (1st & 10 at LSU 45)
  • 8:14 – 3rd Q: 0 yd run (1st & 10 at MISS 24)
  • 3:07 – 3rd Q: 1 yd run (1st & 10 at MISS 47)
  • 10:54 – 4th Q: -2 yd run (1st & 10 at LSU 20)
  • 5:04 – 4th Q: 6 yd TD run (1st & Goal at MISS 6)

PLAY 12 - 1st & 10 - 3 Wide - TE Right - 3 pt Stance - Comeback route to CH - 1st Down 6 Man Box - Bring 4 (Ball lacking zip… but Nuss did get it outside the numbers on the throw on the opposite side of the field - makes me think the torso injury is on the left side… throws to the left are way shorter)
Appreciate the neurotic thread. You just like me fr. Just this part about the side the speculated injury is on got my attention. If he's throwing wounded ducks to his left, wouldn't it make more sense as a righty that the core muscle injury is on his right side. Sitting in here in my chair pretending to throw a ball left, it's the right side of my abdomen that is stretching a whole lot more to complete the motion. Kind of irrelevant to your overall point but I reckon Nussmeier's injury is isolated to core muscles on his right side if there's truly a trend of noodle arm throws going left vs more normal stuff going right

Mike Scarborough who does have sources said Nuss is a little banged up but the real problem is he got a big head and didn’t put in nearly the work that Daniels and Burrow did this offseason
