I agree.

I don’t agree with the rule, I am just saying how the intemperate it. He put the crown of his helmet into the numbers of the ball carrier and they want it to be his face mask.

They want you tackle with your head up and not lead with the crown of your helmet. In other words he would have been ok if he did not lower his head before contact.

Launch — a player leaving his feet to attack an opponent by an upward and forward thrust of the body to make forcible contact in the head or neck area

A crouch followed by an upward and forward thrust to attack with forcible contact at the head or neck area, even though one or both feet are still on the ground

Leading with helmet, shoulder, forearm, fist, hand or elbow to attack with forcible contact at the head or neck area

Lowering the head before attacking by initiating forcible contact with the crown of the helmet





I originally thought the call was wrong, but I looked up the rule (above) and I believe he did lowered his head and initiated forcible contact with the crown of the helmet (last point above).

To give Tompkins a shot. Looks like it was the right call and maybe it came a little too late.

That targeting call was BS and changed the game. Good battle. Tompkins is legit.

Good luck today.

I believe they are hitting the weight room and conditioning. While I don’t think they will be challenging for a Big Sky Championship in 2021, I believe you will see significant improvement and the staff building a foundation for future success.

Because they had zero spring practices, only 2 or 3 fall practices before getting shut down by Covid. I think we all saw the results this spring. It is hard to tell exactly what you have in Zoom meetings instead of actual practices.

I think the coaches have come to the conclusion that the bus has no wheels already and are scrambling to find some. I wouldn’t be surprised to see more than a couple of FBS transfers added to the roster before next fall.

Scholarships are yearly commitments.

My guess is a transfer.

Could be the QBs were told their skills do not translate to the new system at QB and they were asked to change positions and they chose not to. I could see Raquet (6’4” 220) as a TE and Hamler at WR, RB or DB.

One idea to makeup the loss of the Cal Poly game would be to have Davis play NAU April 17th. That would get both NAU and Davis to 6 games.

Never mind. NAU is scheduled to play Idaho April 17th.

Could play a second game against WSU April 17th, but I don’t see WSU agreeing to that.

Cal Poly will allow 20% attendance (2,300 fans) for our last 2 home games (UC Davis on 4/10 and Weber State on 4/17). You can purchase in blocks of 2 or 4 for $20.00 per seat.

Good luck today, although I don’t think you need much luck. Aggies look like a complete team.

Go to Big Sky TV and click on the previous tab. Then click on the game.

The defense has been bad the last 3 or 4 years, but it was on the field a lot less with the time consuming triple option offense. I had always said that Cal Poly’s problems under Walsh were not on the offensive side of the ball, but on the defensive side. I expect it will take two or three years to see a big turnaround. I expect given time Baldwin will right the ship.

Congrats. That was an old fashioned a$$ whooping. We have a long way to go and the Aggies look ready to make a deep run. Hopefully we can make it more respectable in 3 weeks.

Baldwin may not have as large of pool of players to draw from as he did when he was at EWU, but he has a lot more to sell as for as location and the quality of the degree to the players he does target which is much the same for Hawkins.
