Throwing a football to a 6'5 5 star starting WR being defended by a 5'10 guy is not a risk.
I've never been one of those guys that has been throwing SBR under the bus. I remembered what he was like when he first started and understood his decline was likely due to him being coached to be terrible. Rhoads' statement just proves it which is why I feel bad for SBR.
SR has made some very good throws. Problem is........for every 1 or 2 of them, there is a WTF throw. This is expected of a freshman or maybe even a seldom played sophmore. But not a fifth year senior. Don't know if it's mental because of self destruction or bad coaching. Either way it's sad to see him go out like this.
I also love that this comment was piggybacked with a statement that TCU "made adjustments" to stop Lanning's one play, which would seem to indicate Lanning has all of one run play, and suggests that TCU somehow adjusted after the one play Lanning played. Freakin' comical.
This whole thing sucks. This is the same descent into madness walden had. Tries to run the triple option, blames bob utters concussions on his bandana, and then refused to play Troy Davis for no reason.
Some of these guys just fold under the stress, and it's happening to Paul now as well. Sad really, I think he is a good man, just completely losing it.
I thought the play before the punt was bad too. ISU's best deal all night had been going downhill, and they throw it sideways on 3rd and 3 for no gain.
The option in the 2nd quarter is kind of on its own since that didn't make any sense either.
Effing ridiculous statement, should be shown door now! Take "my coach can eat your coach" with him!
I think both were good playcalls and they were just executed poorly. Dvario had a simple, but terrible block, and Sam just chucked that pitch at a RB who may have been a bit close. Both really gave playmakers chances to get big yardage if other guys made simple plays.
I guess I could kind of see why he would say thing (don't agree but I understand it) if you have a top tier defense to back up your offense. But when you have (and have had) terrible, last place defenses I'm at a loss for words how you can actually say this and mean it.
This one quote pretty much sums up why 1) can't score and 2) are so damn conservative with our offensive game plan. If you think 25 points is going to win in the Big 12, you are delusional. Especially when you have a defense that is last or second to last in the conference (and was worst in the nation last year).
It is a lack of awareness. A lack of an understanding what it takes to win in the Big 12. And a complete lack of awareness about the strengths and weaknesses of individual players and your football team as a whole.
Embarrassing.

Damage control by CPR....pretty ham handed at that.
CPR is a good man and he has to be feeling the pressure at this point. While I am no clone fan by any means I've met the guy and he's a very nice dude who is passionate about the clones. It's too bad Baylor is next and not KSU or another winnable game.....could start getting ugly.
In the last two weeks he's made two comments that really seemed disoriented and out of touch with reality. Unless he saving Lanning for homecoming It's time for rhoads to go.
on top of that if you don't understand that play should be made how can you possibly coach the defense against it. No wonder the D backs start out 10 yards from the receiver.
Naw. That comment reinforced, with rebar and concrete, why Rhoads needs to stay the hell away from Lanning. Don't ruin him before the next staff gets here.
