Hobo Week - Youngstown State Penguins

Re: Hobo Week - Youngstown State Penguins

There's a guy behind me who makes a point of complimenting the receivers' effort on completions, and he's typically good for at least one "caught that in spite of Christion"-esque comment every other game.

I had a guy that sat a few rows behind me last game (thankfully not every game) that was obnoxiously against TC. I don't understand why anyone would criticize the best QB SDSU has ever had. The only logical explanation is if they're mad about the JMU game last year...?

Re: Hobo Week - Youngstown State Penguins

I'm curious about the O-line, too. I know that Taryn has tons of passing yards but I think most of his passes are either quick outs, jump balls to Dallas/Jake or shuffle passes. I could be wrong but I don't remember him hitting many long passes. This is just not this season. I remember talking with somebody last year and they were telling me that Jake was injured and that is why Taryn kept overthrowing him. I don't think he hit many deep balls with other receivers either. This year people are talking about the O-line not giving him enough time.
I know that some of you know much more than I do so you can tell me that I am wrong but it just seems that way to me. Is there a place where we can see what % of his passes that are thrown 20+ yards down the field and what his completion % is on those passes?
Thank you!

We have the 2nd highest scoring offense in the FCS and TC is the most efficient passer in the league. That tells me a lot of things, but for sure the offensive line is playing pretty well and I could care less if TC isn't taking deep shots and is opting for more mid level higher percentage passes.

I think part of the reason the Jacks were throwing shorter passes later in the game was because 2 of the 5 OL had next to no game experience, and Lickiss was making only his second start.

Re: Hobo Week - Youngstown State Penguins

Yeah some people just love ragging on him and I don’t really get it. He’s got the highest qb efficiency in the country, 2nd most passing TDs, and the 2nd highest completion percentage in the country. That’s after a game against NDSU in Fargo, all with one INT in over 100 attempts. I’m 100% convinced the people who want to bitch about him constantly just either want something to bitch about or have some sort of rooting interest in having a different starting qb for us. Like being from the Mitchell area maybe? I just don’t get it....

I am in the camp that TC is overrated. Do I think he's bad, no. But how many times have we watched him make a great throw, countless. But then the next pass he could drill it into the turf or overthrow the receiver by 5 yards. That's what makes me skeptical about calling him the best ever. JMO

Re: Hobo Week - Youngstown State Penguins

I guess I am looking for a guy we can trust, and I can't do that with him. Granted I'm jaded. Carry on. Call me a Austin Sumner kind of guy.

Curious which would put or what measurables would you go by? I will say I always liked Ryan berry. He threw with touch and accuracy imho. Good pocket awareness could shift and slide Nd stay in the pocket and deliver a good throw as its collapsing around him.

There isn't a stat or metric I can go by. Ryan was my next choice on the list of QB's I'd like to have back in this offense. I guess with them my butt cheeks didn't clench every time they threw!

Is there actually a "camp" that feels that way, or are you in an overwhelming minority?

It's been an ongoing thing that preceded JMU. I can think of a more infuriating reason for ill will among some, and it has more to do with their prejudice than anything Christion has ever done/failed to do

Well, at least you're getting your kegels in, right?

I'm typically more nervous about him getting injured than I am an errant throw.

Your’re right I’m wrong. Past performances when it counts means **** I guess

I'm wondering why you have this misconception about TC. He's a much more accurate passer than Sumner was. Is it because he throws a harder ball and his misses look different than you're used to?

Sumner - 737/1267 (58.1%)

TC - 690/1126 (61.3%)

Sumner was fun to watch. Just curious -- how could Christion earn your trust at this point?

That’s my kind of “camping” - extremely quiet and not another person for miles!

Seriously, TC could stop playing today and would still be listed among the SDSU all-time greats after all of us are gone. He’s rewriting the SDSU and MVFC record books right in front of us.
