Neal Burcham really stinks

Postby B1GPonyFan » Sat Sep 06, 2014 12:58 pm

Just wondering when the excuses stop. He is what he is - undeserving of a Division 1 scholarship. He should be at a D 2 school, not here.

Doesn't this apply to a large number of our players?

would it surprise you if I told you JJ offered him sight unseen-not even the vaunted tape mailed in? Took him on Dilfer's word alone
I will not make age an issue in this campaign. I'm not going to exploit for political purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience.

That O-Line is so bad I don't think Peyton Manning could do anything. I hope Davis gets the 2nd half start.

Cassel is starting the second half as Burcham's arm was reportedly hurt on the sack/fumble.

Doesn't surprise me at all. June loves giving out scholarships based on the recommendations of his friends (see those Army Prep kids)

when the new coach comes in next year, Burcham can transfer to some FCS school where he can finish his college football career...but he won't be alone. We have a lot of FCS caliber players on this roster

Have Ford and Sewell made a decision to switch coaches? I think that they love JJ so I'll have to see it to believe it! :roll:
