Perhaps. But this is likely why Hudson was moved back to RB. Not sure he is as good as Sigers, but he will likely get a chance to see what he can do.

It is really too bad Crockett couldn't get eligible.

That sucks but we will be fine. He only got a few touches per game on offense and we have a bunch of guys who can fill the role. I bet we will see Ryan Smith get a few more touches and he's more versitile getting experience as a slot receiver. He's probably close to Sigers speed wise. You can run endarounds and reverses with Smith. Substitute Smith and he has similar results. Wes Hudson is another 4.4 guy with great potential.


What sucks is the special teams.

True enough, but what if one of them gets hurt? We are one play and one injury away from being thin, and I really don't get the "break even loss" theory.

If we lose DJ or Sam to injury, then we are playing someone who has not played before. Yeah, yeah, yeah, its an opportunity. But I liked the experience we had back there and that experience means a lot when you are playing a tough MVFC schedule.

With that said, anybody really know anything about Matt Jones, the new recruit from AZ? My impression, right or wrong, was that he is incredible and that in order to get him the Bison had to offer his best friend Ryan Stanford also. You never know how good a TFr can be I guess :) (aka, Turner, Heagle, Olson, etc.).

I don't think that is true. I think he is ineligible until the fall of 2012, assuming he can get busy and get his academics in order. My guess is we will never see him.

Remember, it is a two for one. For every semester of ineligibility it takes two semesters to regain it.

He only ran 2-5 plays per game and most were outside runs. He played as a true freshman and they kept it really simple for him. Easy to replace with Smith or Hudson. Both have similar speed and are better receivers.

This might not be about GPA. If you aren't on track in terms of credit obtained toward your degree, you are ineligible. You could theoretically have a high GPA and still not be eligible.

Actually, that situation might be more difficult to correct than a low GPA because the clock keeps ticking. Doubling the amount of credits taken might be necessary to get caught up but not possible to make it work.

I have no idea what Siger's problem was but low GPA is not the only possibility. Something to keep in mind because there WILL be more ineligible players.

I have some experience with kids coming out of high school and clearing house issues. I won't get into that for obvious reasons but people should understand that it often is not because of bad grades.

Smiths biggest problem is he makes too many fair catches so we dont get a chance to see his moves. There was a game last year that he made like 7 guys miss. It was one of the few times we saw it but it was certainly a flash of brilliance. I agree he needs to thicken his legs but he was a true freshman so hopefully he bulks up a little and keeps his speed.

I think thats why Bohl made him the punt returner and not Sigers
I don't recall seeing Sigers make many people miss. Its probably because he was so quick he just ran past people.

It was cool watching Smith run the TD back in the spring game so we know he has jets. He's a great athlete. Thats why Bohl put him as a slot receiver to make plays.

IMO, it is more important for returners to be quick and shifty before fast, because they do not have much time, or room at all, to beat that first wave of players coming down.

At least players that can make that first wave of people miss to get into the open field.

"Fluidity" - the property of flowing easily.

"Mechanical" - Performed or performing in an impersonal or machinelike manner.

Think this is what 2910 meant to some extent. I tend to agree.

Sigers "flows easily" when he runs and cuts.

Smith "performs or runs machinelike", without much fluid-like moves.

He will also be missed at RB, as he was a major change of pace and style from DJ. The defense would have to have known that from watching our game film, and my bet is that opponents even had different scout players when preparing for DJ and Sigers. You are correct tho, he will be missed on special teams as well. Need someone to step up I guess.

I think Ojuri gives us a nice change of pace guy too so that should ease the loss. They seem to have different styles. I think the jury is out on Hudson but I've liked what I've seen so far with limited action. Whenever a guy takes a busted play 70 yards against our 1st team defense he's got some playmaking ability. Smith should see some short passes in the slot. It plays to his strength. I can see him taking a short pass, juking the defender, and running a long way.

Hershal in the NFL didn't turn out so great, did it?

@Gabe: Not trying to get in pissing match with you, but I don't think Smith has many legit moves (We just disagree, and that's OK). A little shift of shoulder here and there, but no foot or hip moves really. Plus, he gets tripped up easily in traffic, which is one of the reasons he was yanked from returning KO's. Put simply, and this plays into your hand/way of thinking, if Smith wasn't such a straightline burner, I don't think he would be on the field much, if at all.

I am more upset about the way it happened. Mike thought he was doing ok, would have to go to summer school (still is enrolled and studying by the way) and be eligible this fall. The next thing he knows he is reading in the forum that he is off the team....What happened to the coaches/advisors watching grades? How and why does he have to find out in the paper/news? Are the coaches too busy to call him into the office instead of calling a news conference? That is a load of crap is what I would say about it. So much for caring about the players.

How do you know that this is what happened? If he was doing ok why would he have to go to summer school? Why do the coaches have to baby sit him?

I'm not close to the situation but players know the minimum expectations. Obviously Sigers knew something was up since the coach didn't let him participate in the spring so he can "work on school" so I don't buy that crap. Other people posted in here months ago. I don't buy he read about it either. Sounds like a BS post to me. Can't make excuses. He needs to accept responsibility and try and get his grades fixed. Kid was lucky he had a chance to go to college for free. I'm still paying my loans.

Jesus....:facepalm: What a load of Bullshit, Bisontwice.

I can see it now....

Bohl : "Sigers, come into my office."

(Sigers sits down)

Bohl: "Sigers, we have to let you go do to your grades."

Sigers: "This is news to me. I thought I was doing OK?!?"

Bohl: "Well, you were talked to in my office several times about performance (FACT). You didn't improve your performance even after getting you readily available tutors. We talked about this in your last evaluation when we told you that you wouldn't have been available for additional post season games in 2010. And... you weren't allowed to work with the others in spring ball. We sent you e-mails, the position coaches talked to you. and the compliance department talked to you documenting our concerns. The fact that this is news to you is exactly why you are being let go."

(Two days later....)

Siger's friend : "God, look in the paper...it says you're off the team, Mike"

Sigers: "Holy shit....this is news to me! Why didn't they say something?!?"

So, I know the parents of two players on the team. One is a So, the other a RFr.

They both say the same thing. As soon as their son screws up in class, on a test, even misses a class, their position coach is all over him. They cut him no slack. Both of these kids play, but sparingly.

Now you want us to believe that one of the players really contributing has been ignored by the coaches and that he learns about it from a newspaper.

I call BS. If you are going to make shit up, make it somewhat believable, but more importantly, know your audience. The people on this board know a lot of players and their parents. Crap like this goes nowhere. I just wish I could bad rep you off the board for this kind of BS. At least I have an ignore option.

Maybe a good fit for him if it is true. Not like Houston is an RB factory by any means. With his style of play he could do some good work in the Conference USA! Or whatever conference Houston is going to be in...if they switched....anyways.....
