We averaged over 5 yards a carry and close to 200 yards a game on the ground some are criticizing old man Cam. TE was woefully underutilized this season which was more an indictment on scheme priorities than personnel.

Skinner had issues with his hands from the time he set foot on campus. Bottom line is he did not commit himself to fixing the issue while here. Couple that with a light seat and he was destined to sit.

TE is the least of our concerns at this point. Good fortune to the young man but reality is he didn’t work hard enough to overcome his limitations.

Please tell me wtf he had to do with it? I argue we ran the ball even better without him on the field, signaling the entire playbook away with his 1-dimensional ***.

Let's not act like he was some demon in run blocking because he wasn't. He was barely average.
 
For his sake he better not go to Colorado.... Corey needs good players around him to help hide his bad traits.... Yes he played better this year and good for him but if he's the best LB on the team ,which he probably will be if he chooses Colorado , it could get real bad real fast for him there.... CU was 126th out of 130 teams in Total Defense.... Flagg needs to stay as far away from there as possible...
Interesting if he's visiting right now, it's a literal f-ing blizzard. Can't drive. Tomorrow the high is 30. Enjoy Boulder my dude.

In 2023 (True Sophomore):

In 2022 (True Freshman):
BCU: Targeted 1 time, caught 1 pass for 30 yards
MTSU: Targeted 2 times, caught 1 pass for 17 yards
UNC: Targeted 4 times, caught 3 passes for 40 yards
VATech: Targeted 4 times, caught 2 passes for 30 yards
Duke: Targeted 2 times, caught 1 pass for 8 yards
GT: Targeted 1 time, caught 1 pass for 4 yards 1 TD
Clemson: Targeted 1 time, 0 catches
Pitt: Targeted 1 time, 0 catches

Skinner had 2 drops as a true freshman. He’s been targeted 17 times, catching 10 of 12 passes that hit his hands.

The fact is he wasn’t remotely considered a player here due to his inability to block. None of our TE’s had good hands this season, but that didn’t stop their snaps b/c the offense didn’t cater to pass catching TEs. Skinner wasn’t a fit here, b/c he came in as a polished receiver v. blocker.
Would’ve loved to see him split out for mismatches. And for run game could’ve had him come in motion and kick out edges and backers. Not hard to just get in the way with a running start but whatever he’s gone now hope he goes to ole miss. Lane can use him correctly or usc

I like Mario. But he brought in Skinner and Harrell then didn’t use them. That BS. He knew they weren’t blocking specialists when he went after them.

Harrell I have nothing to say other then our top 3 WRs played 95% of the snaps it felt and Harrell just may not have it anymore after the injuries I guess we’ll never know
 
Never understood the Harrell excitement because outside of a few catches 30 years ago at Louisville, he never did anything.
