Spring Practice Dumpster Fire

I don't care if you don't like Taylor, but this is pure speculation. Until players start coming out and saying they didn't like him, then why bring this up? This was beat to death a couple years ago when the line was blocking poorly. Until players come forward and say Taylor wasn't a leader, or a bad influence in the locker room, or a poor teammate, don't bring it up. It's pointless.

Especially don't bring it up when tons of players have said exactly the opposite.

It actually isn't speculation.

It's pretty well documented that people welcome the leadership TA brings to the team and it is also well documented how much more willing people were to put their necks out for Tommy in the media - and don't you remember the whole Quincy Enunwa situation with who'd he rather have start or w/e and he pretty much threw TM under the bus?

Thanks in advance for the documentation that you are about to bless us with, since it is, as you say, well documented.

Can't wait.

There are numerous things I've posted on here and PM'd to people that was not public knowledge at the time and did become public knowledge. Furthermore, I know there are articles out there that talk about Tommy's leadership ability.

Enunwa regarding a question about Martinez and dropped balls: "You guys are going to make me say something I shouldn't say so I'm not going to answer that."

This thread just hit warp speed to the Artard galaxy.

Just when I thought Taylor was gone and we'd stop this sh#t...

Woah, when did my phone automatically take me from HB to HOL? All we need now is someone to start degrading Bo and TO unabashedly and repeatedly. Maybe work in how he is 100% sure of something that doesn't actually happen and the transition will be complete. While we are at it, we should see if the BRB is re-opening their membership doors.

That is excluding any games against non-FBS opponents as well, so to get the true number you have to go through the play-by-play stuff on Huskermax or some other source and add those in. IIRC there were only a couple more. In general, QBs running the triple option are up high on the list.

BTW this is the only site I've ever found that has stats like this. Team fumbles are easy to find, but individual are not as readily available. I did once go through Crouch's 1999 season manually and if I remember correctly he had 12 that year, which was the worst of his career. It's too bad these stats don't go back further because it would be interesting to see numbers from our past QBs as a comparison given the type of offense they ran.

That's true. I think Taylor's fumble stats are slightly inflated for the simple reason that he ran the ball a lot. It's bound to happen that a running QB is gonna have more fumbles than a pocket QB. With that said, Taylor had horrible ball security and had a lot of head scratching fumbles in his career.

I believe one year he was tied with Oregon's QB for fumbles lost...

Which QB? It wasn't Darron Thomas and Mariota didn't fumble a whole lot as a freshman. Last year he had issues but Taylor was hurt so...

Can we just ban The King already? Always such a freaking troll and I'm tired of threads hitting the fan like this.

Nah, if we banned people for saying dumb sh#t, there'd be nobody left.

I'd plus 1 this, but apparently when you run out, you run out for the "day". Which on huskerboard appears to be 43 hours.
