If he does in the NFL what he did at TCU this season, he won't even be an NFL Crabtree. I hate to say that because I appreciate what he did at TCU and I've always been a fan of his dad (until he started tweeting). If he doesn't finish his routes and block downfield, he won't last. I hope his work ethic makes an uptick when the money counts on it. That, or he catches everything in his vicinity.
Sorry, but it's not Cumbie's fault. GP dictated what kind of offense needed to be run. I've had a long running love affair with GP, but this season has seriously soured that relationship. If Cumbie was allowed to run the offense that he was brought in to run and GP wasn't so damn worried about defensive stats, TCU might've outscored a lot of teams over the past few seasons.
here is the chicken and egg part of the issues with the offensive problems
gary as the head coach is ultimately responsible for results of all phases of his program and i do believe he has expressed certain preferences to sonny about parts of the offense be it run/pass ratio or use of tempo
sonny as oc even if he is running an offense that wouldn't be his first choice is responsible for making the most of the players on the offensive side of the ball and in the case of jalen that means moving him around, using motion, bunches etc.. .to free him from being jammed at the line. if you look at link i included above in one of the draft reviews about reagor it mentions he predominantly works only one side of the formation
excerpts from two different write-ups and not the thoughts of posters on this board:
"Due to the offensive scheme, he was asked to play on the right side of formations only. While having the game that projects well to it, his consistent value in the slot remains a mystery because of his duties in TCU’s scheme."
"In the games I watched, Reagor exclusively lined up on the right side of the formation."
anderson, burns, and kelly were the receiver coaches during jalen's time at tcu and i don't think it was an accident jalen only mentioned kelly in his comments. yes, some players don't want to learn, some players don't want to practice at a game pace, and there are a variety of other reasons, but in the end it is your jobs to develop the talent and we have seen a continued pattern of poor routes and iffy hands with other receivers in other seasons.
finally in the end jalen has to be responsible for the work he puts in and the question becomes how much time did he put in running routes, working on his hands.
whether the issue started at the top of this chain or bottom i think all areas in some area of their responsibilities didn't get the job done with reagor
