THE PAC 12 THREAD v.5

[socaljim242]

ASU absolutely needs to land Austin Jackson and it's beginning to look like a longshot. The inability of the program to sign any of the premiere local OL out of high school over the last several years is program crippling.

They've already missed on Keenan Walker, Casey Tucker, Kenny Lacy, Andrus Peat, Christian Westerman (originally), Tyler Johnstone, Cyrus Hobbi, Taylor Lewan and Andre whatshisface over the years. Every 4 or 5 star OL in the state for the last 8 or 9 years has gone elsewhere despite being in ASU's backyard. Most of them wound up being pretty good.

It's turning into a self-fulfilling prophecy that ASU can't get offensive linemen. They have one signed this year, their lowest ranked recruit. They took 5 last year, but 3 were JuCos as they tried to patch holes. It obviously didn't work well.

The weather? Being a big boy playing and practicing in that heat has got to suck.

So best team in the PAC is playing in the Rose Bowl.lol

Good…anything short of a Trojan blowout is unacceptable today.

I really don't know much about this Penn State team but I'm hoping the USC offense is humming today

Leach with another extension, just again proves we should never strive for anything other than at best mediocrity as an athletic program.

 

[Olyduck]

So Ross is gone

 

[RegentDenali]

So Ross is gone

Looking that way. But that was expected given his history of injuries and finally put together a complete season.
Sad to see him go, but I get this.

UCLA has a new OC. Their 3rd in 3 years.
Jedd Fisch this past season was Michigan's pass game coordinator, QB and WR coach.

Through his career, he's worked as an assistant for the likes of Jim Harbaugh, Pete Carroll, Mike Shanahan, and Steve Spurrier.

 

[socaljim242]

Ok nay sayers. Darnold , best QB in the PAC going into next season?

 

[mcnabb7542]

He had to go and get paid and not risk blowing another knee and not getting his payday. I'm sure a few of the other 4 will as well and maybe all of them.

Dam whats not to love after that performance. That was some serious pressure and he delivered. He and Browning are gonna do some Damage next season

 

[mrwallace2ku]

Wow, How many assistants has he gone through?

 

[trojanfan12]

Better question. How many more will he go through before he figures out that maybe they aren't the problem?

 

[socaljim242]

Yeah, Ive never seen turnover like this at a supposed to be major program.

 

[TROJAN-MAN]

Well the PAC went 3 & 3, the south went 2 & 1 while the north went 1 & 2, who knew?

 

[wazzu31]

He will get preseason honorable mention for sure.

cool story

 

[TROJAN-MAN]

Jelly is jelly

 

[socaljim242]

I heard Heisman candidate thrown around.lol. But seriously . I was really impressed at how he performed. I was at the 2005 USC @ND Bush push game and Darnold reminded me of how Lienart handled pressure.
