BOL Round Table

Atleast BC could admit he was wrong

Back up train is backing up

Umm... so lemme get this straight...

BC admitted he was wrong and I +1 him for that. Now the other guys that were defending his point to death (calling all of us idiots I might add) are trying to say that what they thought/typed was simply mis-read... or that they didn't completely understand what they were defending?

Ya, all of us just misread that you thought we were stupid for disagreeing with you. There are plenty more than just BC that should just fess up. I was pretty excited to hop on this thread after watching the presser to see all of the crow being feasted on. So far, only BC has started the buffet, but there's plenty of crow to go around. Just sayin...

I have no clue what the op was trying to say. I wpuld have figured.everyone here assumed that Cade couldnt kick it out of the endzone. People here were.complaining about a high kick to the 10-15 and were acting like a line drive to the goal line would be better. Its not.

If Cade was trying to kick it out of the endzone Saturday night why was he aiming for the right corner and kicking it high? Shortest distance between two points is a straight line. Yall can read that quote however you want but Saban knows Cade cant kick it out of the endzone and calls that right side kick because of it. Or are we to believe Cade accidently kicks it to the same spot every time.

I dare someone to ask Saban wether he wants Cade to kick a low line drive to the goal line or the way he is doing it now. Thats the only arguement I made and assumed thats what the op was saying. You would have to be insane if you thought we were saying he wanted Cade to do that instead of kicking a touchback. Thats like assuming people know a td is better than a fg. I want eat crow until Saban answers that question which is absurd to me. Cade kicked low line drives at times last year to the goal line amd you saw how that worked out.

They returned it past the 40 once the other was out of bounds and got spotted there. Other than that I dont think they got past the 30. On the other hand Sturgis kicked it deep and we had a return of 70 and 43. How did that strategy work out for UF. Up until that one return our kickoff team had been phenomanal all year.

Travis Reir tweet...Foster is free to kick it out of the end zone...as long as its to the right corner and has a four second hang time.

Another tweet by Travis..Saban to Foster. Kick it in the stands. But if you kick it low and down the middle youll be there in no time.

Thats all we were saying. I hate to tell people but Kickoff right is a designed play. If you dont believe me just check it out on the playstation.

So either me and Travis are full of shit or we actually understand whats going on.

You are not good at this being wrong thing are ya buddy.

You have no clue what the OP was trying to say after spending the entire thread supporting him and talking down to those who disagreed with you?

Here is a little reminder:

"Peope are saying he cant do that so instead of kicking a line drive 2 yards deep in the endzone we are making him kick a high ball to the 5-15. This isnt hard to understand...it aint rocket science. Well maybe it is to some of you. Trajectory is involved. Nevermind...this is above some of your heads lol. SMH"

"If you dont believe me just check it out on the playstation.So either me and Travis are full of shit or we actually understand whats going on."

"I dare someone to ask Saban wether he wants Cade to kick a low line drive to the goal line or the way he is doing it now. Thats the only arguement I made and assumed thats what the op was saying."

Really? another one of these? when are you going to give it a rest dude. What part of "it is not by design" don't you understand? If it were "by design" then Saban would be calling for it, but he clearly stated that it is not.

No one is saying that it cannot be a strategy to kick it right or left, but it is not a strategy to intentionally NOT kick it in the endzone. You are getting you feathers ruffled for nothing. Once again, why did he use the golf swing analogy if he is intentionally telling Cade to kick it short?

Also, If Cade were doing EXACTLY what Coach Saban wants him to do do you honestly think he would have criticized (maybe too harsh of a word) Cade in the press conference? Why on earth make people believe that Cade is doing something wrong when he is doing everything right? That would take a little bit of a toll on a player don't you think? I mean if what you were saying is true then Saban would have had to approach Cade after the press conference and say: "hey Cade I just told the media that you could put it in the endzones in practice but you couldn't in the game and then I gave them an analogy about how when I mis-swing a golf club it can go left or right without much distance.........but you just ignore that because I was lied to them. You keep doing what we tell you to do which is kick it to the 10-15 and to the right."

Thank you. Im not argiung this any more because its stupid. I know for a fact what I was saying is true. If you have eyes you couldnt come to any other conclusion. If you think me Travis R and this guy are wrong you got problems.

And to the dude that keeps responding I clearly.stated several times that people are arguing over different things here. Some people are arguing over something that most people would assume was a moot point. Which was Cade couldnt kick a touchback so he was kicking coverage kicks. Im not sure which point the op was arguing but other people in the thread were on the same page as me and they deserved to be responded too.

Your right but it does not lend credibility when you use playstation as an example.

You realize you contradicted yourself? Either he doesn't have the leg to put it deep in the endzone or our scholarship kicker can kick it in the endzone. Which is it?

A high hanging kick to the 10-15 yard line that's returned to the 40 yd. line = a return and a pretty big freaking return. I have faith in our coverage team to keep the big returns at bay, but damn would it be nice to put it in their endzone and make them make the decision to return it our not. I figure most of the time they wouldn't want to bring it out because of how vicious our coverage is to avoid mistakes and turnovers. if they do choose to bring it out, they are risking a big coverage play and getting pinned inside the 20. Most of the time a kick to the 10-15 yd line is getting returned past the 20 anyways.

I'm not disputing that. Cade made some bad kicks last week. I was disputing the comment that all kicks into the endzone are the same. They aren't. I'd love for Cade to put all his kicks thru the uprights. But if he is going to barely get it to the goalline, this isn't like high school. Those low kicks can and will be brought up with a full head of steam. Low line kicks, Even if they get to the goal line are not good kicks

You can call me stupid for being stubborn and flat wrong about what Saban was wanting to happen - but I never contradicted myself.

I stated that he has the leg to get it TO the endzone, but not DEEP into the endzone. There is no contradiction there - although it appears that I was wrong in that assumption. Saban stated that he has the leg in practice, but it doesn't translate to the game.

Can we all agree Foster doesn't have the leg to kick it to the middle of the endzone?
