I think Lindley has such a strong motor that he was going to get there eventually (and I think much of Lindley's horrid 1st possesion stretch was wanting it too bad and trying to be the leader and game-winner as a soph.) - and, if anything brown going down just showed him that I can lock onto a guy and throw him the ball when i get a chance; I think what it showed to DeMarco is he has elite ability that he let go to waste, and so instead of dogging routes (which dude did a lot in the past) he might run through them full speed this year after being the man and finally showing his promise and so if Lindley does have the mind to be a QB and not just the arm and touch, the offense could be deadly. Hell, I might just line them both up on the same side and simplify it for Lindley I sure hope Sipe cured him of that bad habit of locking into a receiver. It's understandable if he doesn't get the time to go through his progressions, but I've seen him do it even when the blocking gives him time to survey the field. The danger will be Sampson losing his focus if Brown gets too many of the throws. That happens at the pro level too.

I'm not sold that Lindley can activate 2 or 3 players in a game. This year maybe, last year - no, I think he would have just thrown to brown everytime he could and seeing as he then threw to Sampson every time he could, I think it was a wash. I don't know man, Brown is by FAR the best player on the team and to just gloss over his loss... I think the BYU game last year was an example of them clicking at the same time. I wasn't just referring to that single game anyway. Including that one, Wyoming was 4-0 in games decided by four points or less while we were just 1-2. Granted, such games often come down to a lucky bounce here or there, but they just as often come down to good coaching in crunch time.

So how come we have the best receivers when our recruiting is not so good? If we start winning our recruiting should jump up big time. We have to out recruit 5 schools in our conference and then out coach the other 3. It would seem our coaches should help win some games for a change. I don't remember can games where Don Coryell was out coached. We lost because we ran out of fresh players. He said our stating 11 had to be as good as the others schools starters. I remembering him saying we needed a second 11 that were good to have any chance to win big games. We could not get more then 55 scholarships with just Jr. College guys transferring in. We could give 30 a year, but some guys dropped out so we may have had 25 lest at the end of a season, and then give our 30 more for 55 total. Now the big schools could have 120 plus more with walk on's. So we are not at a disadvantage any more, and we all thought we could catch up with them, but never did in quality. Just my opinion on the recruiting... We are in real good shape over the next 3/4 years in the MWC (getting better and soon to challenge for the title) because... -Chuck Long was brought in to build the program from the ground up with High School players and good students (very few risk type players and very limited JC's). -Chuck Long succeeded in that area, the APR improved, and we are now at full scholarship level. -Chuck Long in his two full years of recruiting had better than average to good recruiting classes, who are now becoming Juniors and a couple of Seniors. -Brady Hoke has followed that up with a good recruiting class in his first full year on the Mesa. Add those together plus this staff is better than the previous staff at motivating and game coaching, you have an Aztec team that is ready to make its move over the next couple of years...STARTING this season.
