Really like Simmons, but he lacks playmaking right now


Oct 17, 2017, 6:58 AM

I actually think he may be a little better than Muse right now (since Tanner seems to do something bone headed every game), but Isaiah can't seem to finish plays very well. He should probably have 5 or 6 INTs on the year easy, but the hands and awareness just aren't quite there yet. Now he's only a Redshirt Frosh, so he still has plenty of time to develop. However, if he ever makes that next leap with his measurables, he'll be a beast for us and make a lot of money on Sundays.

He should be starting over Tnet's golden boy Muse.

Why is that?


Oct 17, 2017, 8:06 AM

Opinion only, or objective measures?

I stopped reading at, "..boneheaded every game"

Because when you need to exagerate like that to try and make a point, then you probably don't have a good point.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I think it's pretty true


Oct 17, 2017, 8:57 AM

Muse plays like a bull in a china shop out there. Heck of an athlete, but a bit too amped up and makes really questionable decisions at times.

I like Tanner (and Simmons), but Tanner has to learn that one or two big hits or big plays do not make up for even more missed assignments. I expect him to start getting his assignments straightened out .... hopefully anyway. He is the very type of player that GT burns with a 60 yard bomb after running 12 straight downs.

Every game?


Oct 17, 2017, 12:14 PM [ in reply to I think it's pretty true ]

or, maybe, two?

He exaggerated at best.

Throat slash and at least one blown converage vs SYR


Oct 17, 2017, 9:30 AM [ in reply to I stopped reading at, "..boneheaded every game" ]

Did you miss those?

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I saw that and was highly dissapointed


Oct 17, 2017, 12:16 PM

But the whole mountain/molehill thing comes to mind here...

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Hope he had to run the Stadium steps till he lost his lunch


Oct 18, 2017, 10:47 AM [ in reply to Throat slash and at least one blown converage vs SYR ]

over the throat slash deal. Not only stupid because of penalty, but like Dabo said, not something we EVER want Clemson associated with. More of a Miami, FSU, Coot, or Looeyville type thing.

Much like we'll never Ray Ray drop the ball


Oct 18, 2017, 10:50 AM

short of the endzone, I'd bet my mortgage we never see Tanner with that incredibly boneheaded move again.

Dude is too full of testosterone sometimes. Needs to slow down and play like a veteran. We need some leaders, not boneheads.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

You mean turning the football up like he was taking a drink


Oct 18, 2017, 10:56 AM [ in reply to Throat slash and at least one blown converage vs SYR ]

and then wiping his mouth?

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

He's a confident and even cocky player.


Oct 18, 2017, 11:00 AM

But yeah, needs to focus more on playing intelligent ball and leading instead of trying to drink from the football :)

Too, did he do a throat slash? I missed the play and truly not positive. If he did, he should still be running stadium steps today.

Re: Really like Simmons, but he lacks playmaking right now


Oct 17, 2017, 8:44 AM

I mean he did cause an fumble that gave us 6 points...and he did run someone down from scoring a TD which lead to a FG...

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Really like Simmons, but he lacks playmaking right now


Oct 17, 2017, 9:18 AM

I'd have to check, but I don't think he caused the fumble.

Doesn't that prove he DIDNT cause the fumble?***

Oh sorry, thought we were talking about Muse***

Re: Really like Simmons, but he lacks playmaking right now

Completely agree. Muse is a big, physical safety who hits hard and has tremendous speed. Coverage skills? Noting to brag about. He also has missed some key tackles.

I played safety in HS , and I can tell you from experience it is not a position that is easy to master .
You have to make decisions in an instant after the ball is snapped .
Regardless of your assignment it is not difficult to get out of position based on what the offense is trying to do . With today's multiple set and constant motion offensive schemes , I assure you that not being in position on every single down and not making bad moves after the snap is commonplace to CFB safeties .
Coaches on our team know this , that is why you stay with the guy who has earned a position about 90% of the time .
Tanner is a bigtime playmaker , " boneheaded " plays or not .
