Easton needs to progress a bit more as a passing QB. Last year it appeared he was second guessing himself a bit and not firing the ball on instict resulting in late throws and inaccuracy. He just needs to trust himself and his receivers more. Notice Carson put the ball up and let his receivers make a play, Easton hesitated with that last year. He also needs to anticipate throws better. He also didn't run the RPO's as effectively as he had as a freshman. Maybe it was his back issues, sophomore slump or whatever I don't know but he needs to take the next step as a QB.
I would really like to see Easton and his wr's work on back-shoulder throws/catches on deep balls. Could have really used those agains JMU's press coverage. Carson and RJ basically hooked up on one on last pass in ISURed Natty.
Actually, could have used that pass/catch combo in a lot of games last year. If done correctly it's near "undefendable". Aaron Rodgers is the current NFL king of those right now. Warren Moon kinda invented the concept as I recall.

And, don’t believe everything you think—jussayin’.
Liberals of BV need not respond to my posts. I don’t need to get any more dumb.
RJ also pulled the best CB where Vraa did the year before.
This is so true. Watch the Youngstown State and JMU games again - where the corners played press coverage 95% of the time. Not only were they in press, but they were taking away any inside releases by their positioning. Forcing our receivers to go outside or fight for that inside release. This would have been perfect for back shoulder throw.
I hope Messingham isn't juggling 4 RB's at a time like we saw in the past. I'd be game for the hot hand approach, let a guy get in a groove. Dunn and Anderson are the obvious favorites to get a majority of the snaps, but Cofield and Purifoy are very talented. Also Coach K said he could see Wilson help us this year.
I disagree mightily, no offense, no pun intended. My biggest criticism of Polasek is that he tried too hard to be an architect with his play calling. He called plays around a design that built up to very specific plays with very specific matchups. I think sometimes he stuck stuck to the plan too rigidly like against JMU, and it didn't work, instead of adjusting to something that would work. Other times Polasek did really well, though.
