Mental errors

What are mental errors to our coaches? Jackson and Ramirez both have turned guys loose for a free rush on Allen, these must not be mental mistakes to Kurt.

I was thinking the same thing

Y’all took the words out of my mouth! outside of mental errors, I’m not sure one of them has the physicality to block high level SEC talent. Wallace has physical tools. I am hopeful he gets a shot. I got tired of watching Ramirez whiff on blocks

it’s not like our current oline is not letting NMSU DL tattoo our QB.
Just don’t understand why 2 guys with NFL bodies aren’t even being given a shot during games AT ALL.

As someone who coached the game for 20+ years, I can tell you with complete confidence they’re not getting game opportunities because they’re not getting it done in practice or in the meeting rooms. Coaches play the players who give them the best chance to win.

“Looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane” is a phrase that’s been around a looonnnnggg time to describe talented players who can’t/won’t get the job done.

No, that can’t be it! There must be some deep conspiracy behind it, don’t you know anything?

We have posters that don’t want to hear this at all. We have posters that hate this coach and need to have someone to blame on this coaching staff

I understand that completely… practice and preparation during the week should lead to playing time. My question is how can some of the linemen that prepare and execute so well in practice and perform as poorly as they do on Saturday?
Apparently the saying you play like you practice can’t be true if these guys earn their PT in practice.

It seems the longest ‘ripening’ stage exist with offensive linemen.

I remember many years under coach Broyles that we would claw and
fight just to eventually beat Tulsa and OSU by some close scores
like 14-10. They remember what you do in November.

The guys playing on Saturday are performing better than their teammates during the week. That doesn’t mean they themselves are great or even good. Sometimes you have to choose the lesser of two evils.
