I sincerely hope the coaching staff doesn't read them. If your "inside" info is correct it should stay inside! No coach would appreciate a mole and you have "outed" your son!<br /><br />Ohio, I understand it's hard not seeing your guy play, but the fact remains none of us are in any position to evaluate the QB's better than the coaching staff. It doesn't matter what state you are from. The bashing of the competition is...well juvenile <br /><br />The old saying goes, the QB gets more credit than they deserve and more blame as well. The offensive struggles are far more complex than just the QB. While I don't suggest the QB's aren't part of the problems, they are just one part.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835899929137685677.post-65734296439910701342009-11-17T13:31:26.171-08:002009-11-17T13:31:26.171-08:00I suggest that Walls and Galland -transfer to some...I suggest that Walls and Galland -transfer to some good I-AA or II program where they will be appreciated. Like Montana, Montana State in I-AA or Angelo State, West Texas, in II. I played in D-II and had a blast. I remember one year we had 10 players transfer in from UTEP. The players said it was so much fun to play for a winning team, and the talent at our D-II program was equal to UTEP just not as deep. If the offense continues down this road, I predict that Walkers time will be short, or with the lack of interest that it will breed, "we" will be a D-II school soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835899929137685677.post-57240066948526769022009-11-17T03:46:07.713-08:002009-11-17T03:46:07.713-08:00I am from Ohio, so I am supposed to listen to some...I am from Ohio, so I am supposed to listen to somebody try to tell us one of the top 5 football states in the nation we don't know any football. <br /><br />I don't know if Walls will stay or not, but the deal he was dealt this season was a very bad hand. The OC has his agenda, and it is not good. He has his guy and that is it. Why not let the Walls kid grow as other QB's need? He is a far better QB than Flemming, but it is not the OC Guy.

Your analysis is probably correct. There could be a mass exodus of some good players. <br /><br />Galland, <br />Although I am from Walls' hometown, I think your boy should (should've since it is Fleming for better or for worse now) be given a shot. However, I think Rosenbach is blowing a bunch of smoke when he says that your son does not have arm strength. If he was good enough to earn a D1 scholarship then he must have a pretty good arm. Back here in Ohio, Zach Collaros has played unbelievable for the Bearcats. Collaros does not have a cannon for an arm. He is accurate, smart and makes plays (my beloved Buckeyes would not give him or RB Pead the time or the day). Moreover, what does arm strength have to do with throwing a screen pass or a shovel pass. Personally, I believe that Rosenbach has no confidence in his players and it shows. I hope your son keeps his confidence and is successful in whatever he chooses to do. <br /><br />Teddy, <br />I guess I blew that comment way out of proportion. I just hope Trevor did not have to read that to realize his season was likely over (and the writing on the wall that he needs to transfer). On a side note, it was a pretty good football weekend in Southern Ohio (Bearcats, Bucks, and the Bengals)with Las Cruces-type weather (Sunny and in the 70's).<br />Joe<br />Waverly, OhioAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835899929137685677.post-48369429300170390242009-11-16T14:58:34.811-08:002009-11-16T14:58:34.811-08:008:14.....Which local talent would you suggest gett...8:14.....Which local talent would you suggest getting a scholarship?

The problem at NMSU is that your offensive coordinator has no flexibility whatsoever and no confidence in any of his kids. That's sad! I'm not insulting his knowledge of the game, but I think the fact that your "O" has regressed is a big problem that needs addressed by your AD. To think one or two quality recruits are going to be capable of pulling your program out of the tank is also insane. I do however, think Walker is doing a decent job with the "D", they are just getting very tired as a whole. A new Offensive philosophy is needed before you run off kids or steer some good kids from coming your way.<br />Regarding Trevor, I think his days as a QB at NMSU are over. He may stay because he likes it in Cruces and has a smoking hot girlfriend, but he has to see the writing on the wall. Personally, I'd love to see him leave, but the Waverly faithful will support him regardless because he's such a quality young man.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835899929137685677.post-13399894103325361832009-11-15T20:43:57.056-08:002009-11-15T20:43:57.056-08:00Oh geez here come the Tanner Rust people.....he wa...Oh geez here come the Tanner Rust people.....he wasnt even good enough to beat Fleming and Walls in the offseason so why should we think he is the qb of the future?<br /><br />GSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835899929137685677.post-26834158927091690482009-11-15T19:32:22.882-08:002009-11-15T19:32:22.882-08:00Mr. Galland.

I'm not a coach or an expert, but I have been around Las Cruces a long time and for some strange reason NM State, regardless of the coach at the time, always seems to bench the best players. If you honestly think your son is a good QB, maybe you should talk him into transferring to a school that will give him more of an opportunity to play. As a longtime follower of NM State football, I have seen a lot of really good football players come to Las Cruces and literally waste their collegiate careers on the bench. My comments are made with all sincerity and respect.<br /><br />If I had a son that was a good football player, I'd rather have him do well at a I-AA or Div. II school than to ride the bench at a bottom 10 I-A program like NM State. <br /><br />NM State has been at the bottom of I-A for a long time and it's not likely that will ever change.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835899929137685677.post-60192827687440640422009-11-15T18:41:38.564-08:002009-11-15T18:41:38.564-08:00Oh geez, here we go with the Ohio people again.

My son, Galland, shares scout team with Rust and I have been told by Rosey that the reason he isn't considered is his "arm slot".. Can you take a look at Scott's delivery, arm strength and give me a comparison based on your observations? (or if any of you guys have actually seen the 4 qb's in action together on the practice field I'd be interested in your opinion...) Living in Washington I don't have the $ or time to get down there myself and take a firsthand look...I'm a basketball and baseball coach not a football coach but I do know futility when I see it...The whole reason for keeping Fleming over Walls is Fleming's footspeed- 16 yards rushing -shoot you might as well not even attempt it.. I do know that when Rosey was at Wazzu he did the samn &*&^ thing to the incumbent QB who prior to his arrival was having 250 plus yard games and tossing TD's all over....as soon as Rosey got in he benched him in favor of a kid he brought in...so, I think that anyone who was rostered prior to Rosey is S.O.

I could say that I am speaking for the whole Ohio crowd and say that remark was uncalled for. You may want to contact Trevor's high school coach for a response to that comment. He would probably give you an interesting article. Very strange comment by a head coach. Again, that is simply unfortunate that he said that knowing that Trevor helped him win two games and he is part of the team. What is your take on that Teddy? Or were you just getting under Walker's skin when you were asking your post-game questions?

Fleming was horrible throwing the ball and he will not get better. Who knows about Walls? Searching for a new QB will not be a bad idea. We made a few nice defensive plays to keep it reasonable. My forecast is that Nevada will chew us up and spit us out the way they have been running the ball. Yes, the only hope for win #4 is San Jose in a close game.
