On the contrary… I think his play style at Notre Dame fits what he’ll have to work with on this team. The WR’s aren’t going to be open, and Book doesn’t really throw his receivers open, so it’s good that he has a lot of scrambling experience.

Look for Alvin. If that's not there, run like hell. Do that a few times. Get comfortable. Ease into it. Play smart. Execute the plan. No whammies.

Re: The Book Chapter Begins

My pop (while drinking and fighting like a good Irishman) watched Book a lot at Norte Dame. He commented to me on how good his scrambling/running is.
I says to him I says, “ Surely father you don’t think Book can run better than Hill do ya?”

Me father says to me “One thing to remember lad...don’t call me Shirley!”.

Then he said Book can’t outrun Hill, but he can “selectively scramble” better than he does.

The kid had no chance. At least the D, Kamara and Humphrey tried for him.
Everyone else can…. I dunno.

Re: The Book Chapter Begins

Book performed as best he could considering the amount of talent out and the lack of time to prepare.

What really annoyed me is the O line, Ruiz and whoever was at RT in the first quarter, allowed multiple free rushers right at Ian and then whilst the poor kid is picking himself off the floor, Ruiz and this guy are just pointing at each other about blocking assignments.

I'd like Ian to start the next 2 games, but he needs some help on offense and I don't want him to get disheartened.

Ruiz needs to go, such a reach in the first round, just like Peat.
