I don’t disagree and he benefited from the scheme and talent around him.

However, he still did what was asked of him(which wasn’t a lot) and rarely made a horrible mistake.

Saban’s teams at Alabama up until 2016 basically had a care taker at QB with 5 stars surrounding the QB.

I don’t think the weapons are there currently, or not at least a large enough arsenal to win against the best teams in the league, especially with Lovett leaving.

There are some nice pieces, but not a lot.

I'm pretty certain there is a log of who accesses a student's academic files, and when. Would be a pretty crappy way to get put on a plan or fired from one of the highest paying districts in the area just to scoop a story to Joe Chiefsplanet.

The pieces are there to have a good Offense if the QB can push the ball down the field.

To coast like a Bennett or random dartboard of Bama QB's? No.

I think your person is misinformed, or a Sooner fan with sour grapes.

Yeah. Cook consistently missed deep shots down the field last year to Burden and Lovett.

They're not good enough to overcome that.

That's Cooks biggest problem - the unwillingness to push the ball.

It's not even the physical limitations that killed the offense last year - it was that he was just tentative. Honestly, the only hope we really had most games was the occasional deep ball that he threw REALLY well. He just didn't throw them often.

I still liked him more than Kelly Bryant - who wouldn't throw the deep ball, intermediate ball OR underneath ball. He'd just stand there and lose.

Lord he was awful.

That year entirely was completely forgettable.

So apparently Williams Nwarneri wore Oklahoma gloves and cleats to a HS jamboree down in Tulsa tonight…said this afterwards….

How long until we get Mizzou’d lol? *sigh*

Cook was named a captain tonight for those who want to off themselves before the season starts.

I had season tickets and couldn't tell you a meaningful detail about a single game.

Last season I had them. I got ripped at the tailgate as often as not because the games were just hellish.

That doesn't sound like he's too committed to me. "I'm going to let the season play out" what's that mean? No shit?

I really hope he's just trolling those fans.

Sam Horne is running neck-and-neck with Cook for the starting spot.

Players vote on captains, so while I figure Cook is the starter I wouldn't use him being voted Captain as super strong evidence that he's starting.

Where did you hear that about Horn? I've heard nothing of the sort.
