Cumbie Deserves Credit

[Land Frog]

Kudos to Coach Cumbie for changing the signals so the opposing team doesn't know them. Brilliant!

There were at least two really nice calls against the defensive schemes that got called back for penalty.
Delayed pass to Barlow who took it in for a td in the 3rd for sure.

Blowing out a really bad Kansas team shouldn’t get you praise given our expectations.

If anything, I’m left wondering why Delton got all those snaps and Collins only a handful.

There’s no way Collins is 3rd string behind Delton.

Anyone sees this game replayed, please post the time? I got bamboozled by the kiddos, and the DVR. Would like to watch this game.

You should have flown in for the game.

because he is from Kansas, and Gary likes him on a personal level.

Play calling was fine. It’s nice to see Cumbie adjusting the plan to our strengths.

I think yesterday’s success was a lot more about execution - strong run blocking and excellent RB play, receivers actually making an effort to catch difficult balls, etc ... but unfortunate a lot of that came as a result of Kansas not being good enough to really contest what we were doing.

overall it was a great performance but I’m still nervous about how we will perform against a school with a strong defense. Iowa State should be a great test.

Count me as one who thinks execution is on the OC.

if we’re gonna dog pile Sonny for the SMU game, we gotta give him praise him for today’s game. Only complaint-too much Delton. But I think that was Gary.

So easy a Caveman could do it, JR still needs more slants, those are easy, let him run. 1st TD is an int against the good teams.

These type of comments are hilarious. All last week everyone kept saying “don’t sleep on Kansas”. Then frogs blow them out. Cumbie calls a great game. Then narrative turns to how bad Kansas is and not how well the game was coached. Other people have said it wasn’t Cumbie it was player execution. If that were the case then it wasn’t Cumbie calling a bad game against SMU or UAPB it was the players fault for not executing. Can’t have it both ways.

In summary, give credit where its due, people, and don’t be hypocrites.

Funny stat considering a lot of the talk on here...

You should have flown in for the game.

I was there. But watching the game with a 4 and 2 year old for any length of tine in that heat is difficult.


That said, I’ll assume you were making a call back joke to flyfishingfrog.

 

[westoverhillbilly]

Cumbie's had a tough task of bringing along a true freshman qb.. I'm not sure if Cumbie's a great OC or not, but yesterday was good karma, especially after Duggan threw into double coverage and Dylan Thomas pulled it in for a score..

 

[Klaw]

He may have called a perfect game.

Not possible.... he called the WR screen for a loss. He calls this [ Finebaum ]ty play every game and it sucks every game

Possibly the worse TCU play outside the short side option by Schultz

 

[mc1502]

Play execution can also make you look good.

Or bad.

 

[texas_sicilian]

His play calling was much more logical, I’ll give him that. Not sure how much influence CGP may have had, but I’ll take it regardless of how it happened. I only hope it stays consistent.

I’m willing to bet it was Patterson that pushed for Delton to get that many reps. Wished Collins had gotten more, but CGP loves him some Delton.

Perhaps I was hasty...
GO FROGS!
BEAT iowa lite!
Spit Blood ~~<~<and [Baylor asshoe]!!

 

[Limey Frog]

You can’t even give him some credit?

He did his job. When's he's done his job as consistently as he's previously not done his job, I'll start praising him.

I’ll one up you. They aren’t hilarious. They’re ignorant.

 

[Pharm Frog]

I missed his post-game presser this week. Summary?

 

[BrewingFrog]

IIRC, the post-game radio coverage spoke of a 2/3 run to 1/3 pass ratio. Our strength is the running game. We played to our strength. Good.
