Hummm ... no, I missed that DiHard. In fact I can't seem to find Snyder anywhere. I keep looking for him in the press box, but have yet to locate him. Got any ideas?

My personal favorite Bucknuts forum habit patterns:
1. If you fail to swear that Tressel is incompetent and that our talent is the worst at tOSU since the mid-1930s, you are someone who "accepts mediocrity" owing to tacit approval of a 6-and-4 record.
2. "Moderator" (personally I think he is pretty immoderate) riptide blasting the coaching staff and smugly declaring all sorts of things that he could do better as a coach, then berating (and threatening with banning) posters like myself who call out all the pessimistic, negative mouth-breathers who take his lead and call for Tressel's firing.
There - now that I got that out, I feel much better!

I am completely confussed by what the all of you are talking about.
If your running down the line on an option you either cut it up field if they take the back or you pitch it if they take you. If you make your read and you see outside that there are two more people on the back just take the loss and don't pitch it. I don't see what is wrong with expecting him to eat the ball.
The coaches, if they are going to run the option, have got to drill these types of things into players heads, or don't run the option. I didn't think TSmith was an option QB in high school, I know I have heard that, and so when you are changing things to include it and he makes a poor decession it is usually because he wasn't coached properly.
Why do we have coaches if it isn't important to teach kids fundementals like this. Why do we have practice if we are not trying to teach kids these types of things. IF a coach didn't drill that into T. Smith's head all week, to the point he would not eve have to think about making that bad pitch, then the coaches did not have the team prepared properly to run that play, and it should have never been called.

Actually Killer, the speed option and the veer option are simple reads...TS did not run the proper track and tried to improvise. Your assessment would be true if JT was calling the triple option ala Fisher DeBerry...
Coaching had nothing to do with that mess....
Trust me, and I am not kidding here, kids do not always do what they are coached to do....

Still wouldn't your think that a play would get blown up once or twice in practice? When that happens it would be a good time to teach the QB when that happens hold on to the ball take the loss and move on.
I know that kids don't always do what you tell them, but if you continue to pound it into their head it will find it's way in their. It always worked on me, and for me.
Finally if you can't trust your player to make the right choice, why would you call the play?
