A Gridiron Goddess Administrative Note: Your Fantasy Football Reality Check – RB edition
July 24, 2008Hello Football Fiends-
Stephen Lamare is hard at work on the Running Back edition of Your Fantasy Football Reality Check. I expect to have it posted late tonight.
Pac-10 Preview is going up in a few hours, am wondering right now if CAL’s Coach Tedford remembers ASU’s Coach Dirk Koetter and the Sam Keller/Rudy Carpenter debacle of 2006. Remember how it rotted the team from the inside out Tedford? You might want to think about that a bit.
Pac 10 Media Day is today and Jeff Tedford had this to say:
“We’ll pick a starter probably the week of the first game… It may take both of them to help us reach our goals…They are both going to get some game time.”
Now are you SURE you want to use 2 QBs this season? Are you SURE you want to bench the seasoned senior for the sophomore who lit up the game against AIR FORCE? Is Kevin Riley really who you want at the helm of your offense when you face USC and Oregon? Because that statement above, it makes it sound like you’re leaning towards Riley. Otherwise why not just anoint Longshore and say the two are still competing, like Coach Carroll does with Sanchez/Mustain?

I am an ASU alum and remember the Rudy Carpenter/Sam Keller controversy well. It was so hurtful that after Carpenter had a miserable year as a sophomore, fans demanded Dirk Koetter be fired. Thank God, Koetter got canned. It was so dumb going with a sophomore instead of Keller, the senior. But the bad thing was the way it was handled…announcing your QB one day and changing your mind within the next 24 hours. Koetter showed he was a big baby, that he could not make up his own mind as head coach and instead gave in to Carpenter’s dad.
