Dracula Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 (edited) Congratulations to Lamar on the win. I had problems watching the first quarter of the game so I couldn't see a lot of Colbert. What I did see, I wasn't particularly impressed by. I liked what I saw from Hoy. That kid is quick, fast, and can find a hole. I was somewhat shocked watching Morse plow with the ball. He's quicker than I thought he was. Back to the problem. I noticed that Incarnate Word vs New Mexico was also on ESPN. Just to refresh your memory, in 2017, UIW finished 1-11 and guess who their lone win was over? After the 2017 season, UIW sacks their Head Coach and hires a 32 year old, Eric Morris, a successful passing OC from Texas Tech, who then recruits a QB, Jon Copeland, from Argyle, Texas. Copeland had just lead Argyle to a 12-1 season, with a stat line of 64% completions, 24 TD's and just 4 INT's. Now you have a young , ambitious, successful passing coach coupled with a freshman QB, whose arm is way way way better than anybody on the Lamar Team and, presto, Incarnate Word is a passing freakin nightmare. You want to see how good an arm Copeland has, then fast forward to Q3, at the 11:23 mark. Yeah, but can they run the ball? Not really, but their running back ripped off a 90 yard TD run against New Mexico. The good news is, for now, UIW can be run on. Lamar has six weeks to get ready but the flip side is UIW has six weeks to get better, too. Edited September 2, 2018 by Dracula Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
