Welcome to the board westtxtiger. You make some good points.

"If i hear one more person say that Jamarcus doesn't have touch, i think i might puke !"

Jamarcus doesnt have touch, he cant throw the ball vertical very well without airing it out, he "aims" the ball on touch throws, hence hesters"fumble/no catch" play and the last play of the game. Curls, hooks, slants, posts and go routes he does a pretty good job but ask him to throw a fade in the corner of the endzone or a 30-40 yard floater( which isnt a floater for most people but he has a rocket launcher attached to his shoulder) and he just cant excute very well. Sorry.

With all do respect to Les & Jimbo:
I didn't post this before the game last week, but i wish i had. I told everyone that would listen how the game would unfold, and man did it ever come true, a low scoring game that is all about trying to win the mistake/turnover battle(in which we won), that comes down to the 4th quarter and likely the last drive for which we had 2, and that scenario heavily favors the home team especially in the SEC. It seems to me that we have a potentially very high octane offense that is capable of hanging a bunch of points on the board every game we play, regardless of the opponent. I figured that just like in every big game we play, we play a conservative game plan that emphasizes defense and offense that doesn't lose it for you, very similiar to Texas A&M of years past that provided an exit to a good defensive coach. Now if you are a JaMarcus hater, close your eyes at this point. Though my favorite kind of QB in college is the dual threat guy like we have on the bench (#11), I love the potential we have with Jamarcus. I want to draw an odd comparison between Jamarcus and Vince Young, though very different in what they bring to the table, both have the ability to impact a game in a way that few teams in the country are able to bost. Mack Brown finally figured out to let Vince geaux, and though he made some bone head mistakes that cost his team a few points every game, he more than made up those points plus many more with his freakish ability. I truly believe that Jamarcus, in a pass happy offense (that we have seen in years past from other coach's), could put up dynamic #'s as well as open up a stagnet running game. (Contrary to popular belief, many offenses do well letting the pass set up the run !). If i hear one more person say that Jamarcus doesn't have touch, i think i might puke ! He throws as good of pass as anyone i have ever seen, both touch and bullets. I love Saban, but if Jamarcus had played every play instead of Randall, we would have one more games. Of course he misses from time to time, but show me one that doesn't. I truly believe that Spurrier or Leach would take this offense and hang 30+ on anyone they played, including Auburn. There may be some pick 6's mixed in their, but who really thinks Auburn or any other team in the SEC or the rest of the country could put up enough to beat us?? Urban Meyer would do the same thing with Flynn or more probably Perrileaux, running that zone read, but resulting in high octane offense. Is there a law that says you can't have the #1 offense as well as the #1 defense in the country?? We are doing well with Les and Jimbo, but they are leaving quite a bit on the table, and as i guy who enjoys dynamic offense, i want to see more!!! Let's try to outscore someone in the coming weeks when we play Tennessee and Florida. I know this isn't going to happen, but just wishfull thinking. No i am not a coach to answer those reply's early, but am willing to consider it if the $$ is right next time there is an opening!!!

To be a coach, you must have a degree. Based upon your grammar and spelling, I'm not sure you went to school at all.

On the touch pass argument: take a look at the numbers and you see that they are pretty good. Now reflect back on your memory or highlights and see how many of those were on a line or had a little air under them??? The evidence is clear, but really what difference does it make how they got there, as long as they did !!

Don't mind him; as you can probably tell, he still hasn't gotten over Santa leaving that lump of coal in his stocking on a lonely Christmas Eve back in '04.:bncry:
