Kwadra Griggs

Anyone know why he got just one snap? He would have stayed in had his helmet not come off, right?

Re: Kwadra Griggs

During the game Dave Neal(annoucer) said after the halftime break that Hop liked the rhythm Jack had as the game progressed and he wanted to keep him in there. Griggs would have given us another wrinkle in the run game(maybe) but the one missed opportunity we had was to use Anderson with under 8 minutes to go in the 4th being down one score. He was fresh and their defense was tired. We could have had a time consuming drive at the end of the game by pounding that tired defense for 3-4 per carry. That was the original game plan with Anderson going into the contest but it wasn't used.

Honestly, its a game that Jack needed to build his confidence more than anything. He had two picks. The first one in a weird way ended up helping us with field position thanks to the response by our defense. The second one was a poor pass that we got our hand on but it wasn't where it needed to be.

Auburn has the #16 defense in the country. They are the best defense we will face all season. North Texas has a top 30 defense as well. Only one with a better defense nationally resides in Hattiesburg........

Re: Kwadra Griggs

I'm not sold on either QB. I'm not sold on Hopson / Dawson, either, but in fairness to them it took Bower about 4 years before he did anything other than tread water, and people still say nice things about Bower. So I'm 110% for all of them for every win after Saturday, and I'm 0% behind them for every loss.

The rest of the schedule consists of cold cuts and bread. Make the frickin' sandwich correctly 90% of the time and I'll forget the past.

Re: Kwadra Griggs

Bower had Curleys recruits in Year 3 especially that defense. He wet the bed starting with that horrible home opener to a terrible Pitt team. Everyone was done with hair gel in Y3 after South Carolina.

Problem is this.....We beat UNT and people will then say it’s just North Texas. Everyone is really blind to the age of this talented team. These kids get 8 more games of experience and you will have a unit that can beat State next year.

But we don't and won't have a coach that can beat State next year...

Solid post. There is a coaching problem at USM. Hopson is worth exactly what we're paying him, but what we're paying him should be the defensive coordinator's salary, not the head coach's salary. 99beers, tell me where I'm wrong.

But we have a coach that can recruit good enough to ‘maybe’ beat State next year. That is the most we can hope for in the current landscape.

If this fucker can get Louis Smith to stay committed and get the Wright kid to sign as well, we will have one hell of an interior line.  Hop just needs to find some Tackles and a line coach and all is well!

My take: if he can make it through this schedule with just 1 more loss, I'm on board.

Re: Kwadra Griggs

Hard to argue with that but we all know if that happens, the loss will come to the worst team remaining.

That’s not necessarily exclusive to Hop.......that’s more of a USM tradition thing
