Valpo Football / Re: FB Recruiting 2020
January 08, 2020, 11:11:42 AM
No one said anything about entitlement.  How do we judge the "best player" stats?  Well Duncan's are not bad.  Judgement calls? Well that is a group decision in football most of the time   that is why there are coaches.  Football intelligence well that comes with experience. Physical ability?  Yeah you have to be a good athletic at this level. Duncan is one of the best athletes  on the team not my option fact look at his speed, footwork ect.  You all know there was NO OL for him it seems you are looking for a quick fix hey lets get rid of the QB Valp had a terrible season.  One thing I do agree no one has the stating job until the first game lets see the other QB's step it up.  They must not have impressed in practice  last year or they would have played them.

You guys seem to blame Duncan for the poor season, if not for him what would the scores have been?  Look at the team as a whole not just 1 player.
I'm sure you all watch college and pro football ( Brady's last play) lets not even start with Michigan! Lets hope Valpo gets skilled athletics and plays the most talented people. None of this moving on from the 5th years you want the wins.  And lets gets a little better at play calling and using time outs when needed.

I'm not sure how the other OB's are never saw them play. But I am not counting Chris out as the starter especially for North Dakota. No matter who starts he will be good for the team with his experience.

With 11 offers for QB and no one committed they better hope Duncan stays! Anyone hear anything? Now he may have an OL.

Valpofb16 if I was Chris Duncan's dad I would tell him get as far away from Valpo football as you can. It's the poor coaching staff that lost these games not the players. Yes I am blaming them. If you noticed all the details like time outs not taken, time management problems, kicker problems, O line problems, in consistency with the QB position among many more you would know that.
#6
Ok D1 baseball guy. Bo would  not get into that nonsense nor will I.  Not a relative of Duncan stated many times my nephew plays on Valpo and well I just know Duncan is the best player on the team. Go Blue not Miami. But most on the blog really do not the in depth knowledge of football.
#7
Wad not a starter but played for Bo Schebechler. Do you know who he is?
#8
Valpotx one interception is not worth mentioning unless you call out all the other turnovers. That was not a game changer. You are another blogger who knows nothing about football your an armchair guy!
#9
Fox is not head coach material yet. Duncan had awesome game without him Valpo football would be a catastrophe.
#10
"Can't throw a 10 yard pass with any sense of accuracy " your words don't spin it JD24. Another stat you got wrong not a parent  my nephew is a freshman on the team. I mentioned that before.
#11
The most important stat is the Win.
#12
Just a thought:

JD24 do you know how to read stats? Check yourself before you comment on a QB's ability before you post.
Here's a stat Duncan has been the only one to score a TD in the past 3 games. Great team effort today congratulations Valpo  football!
#13
It's the truth but I will bow out since it bothers you . It's football talk I am surprised you all are so sensitive.
All 6 of you on this blog.

Just saw the interview Fox had after the homecoming game.
My thoughts:
1.   He seemed nervous and Insecure-not good for a head coach
2.   He said he played Seewald to make the offense more efficient.
3.   Well with maybe the only team they could have beat this year that did not work
4.   Not Jimmy's fault, Duncan and Seewald have no time out there they basically are on their own no 0 line help.
5.   He's says he is playing Seewald Saturday too bad you can tell by watching he is still not healthy shoulder may be hurt again. Rotate Duncan in. 
6.   Lastly he seemed confident on one thing he knows the fields and locker rooms of the upcoming games...umm so what.
#15
Ok one more comment JD24 your absolutely correct!
#16
Your man was in Seewald no win. Just a note I'm Not related to Duncan just think he's a better talent all around. I do have a nephew on the team so I go to some games. I was not at homecoming but saw stats. That's all I'm saying. Not worth anymore comments.
#17
Not negativity. It's the truth not singling out anyone ok maybe Todd but he's a side show.
#18
I'll end with this Valpo has no athletic talent just pure talent none.  That's just how it is these students should not take it serious go along for the ride and have fun. 
#19
Well the say I am quoting Todd he announces for a football at  valpo never has moved on well ya know why that is! If I knew he said it I would of laughed he never tells the whole story he probably thinks Seewald is back lol.
#20
Seewald goes in first series gets TD on a 3rd string defense tell it like it is ! I was there it was Truman's 3rd string if you gonna talk football tell the facts. Hope Duncan does transfer these coaches need direction but I don't think these qb 's really care it's just fun now I mean come on not a serious program.
#21
I agree they should start a Freshman and let Duncan go into the portal and get on a team where his skills are utilized he has no help at all and hangs in but let Freshman have it. 
See if the Freshman can connect with the guys who do run the right routes,  get the ball off when there is no blocking from the O line, after you check down be able to run even 1 yard with no blocking.
When the Freshman hands off to the running back I am sure he can get further because he handed if off.   Duncan has his faults he needs to relax and not throw those interceptions but I think he trying to make something happen and that is better then nothing.

It's in poor taste to to write and speak for the entire program on a blog about a player!  I doubt Duncan is deflated very poor taste to post that.  Yes you can talk  about his playing  things you have witnessed. Anything else is an armchair want to be player. If you have played you would know.

Well if Seewald can learn to throw correctly and not throw out his shoulder then give him a shot. We will see. One good year with tons of returning starters is not something to hold on too.

I don't think he ran around when stressed he kept control of the ball
You think Jimmy Or Ben would of had open receivers or that the running game would of have been better if they handed off the ball ? 
Your not looking at the big picture.

Hey JD24

Who would you have as your Go to guy! No one was open available or even close to helping Duncan! I was at the game! Let me you know pick for that! One turn over while Duncan was playing. Remember that.
