Uhmm really?

I wouldn't count on seeing Sterling against Army. We will miss him for sure,but we may be underestimating just how badly the knee was injured on Saturday.

Pretty sure Ali Villanueva graduated. Their tallest wideout to catch a pass this season is 6'4".

White helmet: Schumann's SMU teams were much better at defending the option than those before or after him.
I don't have any statistical data to back that up, I just know that since UNT quarterback Scott Davis ran for 200 yards against us in 1990 we haven't played the option well at all except for the period Schumann was our defensive coordinator.

I think Rice under Ken Hatfield ran for 440 yards or more on us several times under Rossley.

Don't forget about the Navy QB.....when he was the backup a couple of years ago.

for some reason i recall around the time of the navy game that one of our freshmen, maybe a safety, was a qb in the triple option in HS and they were letting him run scout team as qb to prep. it's tough to face w/ 1 week to prep, 3 weeks is a different story. still not easy, but that hopefully will be enough.

Greenbauer was the scout team QB during prep for Navy.

Good grief, he looks like he could play QB for Navy. Is he on our team and where can we put him?

yeah, he's a freshman. i believe he is redshirting this year. roster shows him listed as a DB. was recruited as ATH.

I looked him up on the roster and after looking at his stats in high school, I wondered why and how we got him. He should be running QB at Navy or Air Force. That guy is an athlete.

I do think Greenbauer makes an interesting SS candidate-is that where he is playing. I had a long thread about his 110 Hurdles accomplishments on the Recruiting page last spring. He definitely is a good athlete. 3 Gold Medals at District Track Meet
