[Aggie Monster]

Quarterback - F

Running Backs - A - we have no passing game and Mayhew still breaking them off.

Offensive line - C - Started with F and working their way up.


Defensive Line - C - Didn't give D cause they be out there to long because of offense

Linebackers - C - Didn't give B cause they are unable to make up for lack up size up front

Secondary - B - They have done work for the most part

Kickers - C

Return Unit - A++

QB... D- he gets a D b/c the coaches don't really give him high percentage passes to throw.

RB... C okay, it's not awesome, we could still work the second back more as well.

Rec...C+ they run good routes, but see QB's grade.

O-Line....C- has shown improvement but not consistent enough to keep defenses off balance enough.

D-Line... F they have been the disappointment. we are too small up front.

LB...C could've been a C+ but, they miss too many tackles starting with the WSSU game.

DB...C+ could've been a B but, first tackler doesn't get ball carrier to the ground.

Kickers....C- Punting is fine...Ah, field goal kicking is whack!

Return Unit...A++ that's the only unit on our squad that the opposing coaching staff truly has to prepare for.

Coaching Staff F-... they look clueless when it comes to in-game adjustments. For the life of me, for a team that loves to run the ball as much as we do, why we don't have a play-action pass in our play-book and if we do, use it. Lee had us all fooled! If we lose to Howard, the paper bag is going on my head for the rest of the season.

These are young men working with what they have provided for them ;coaching, training and such. Some of them right out of high school during what the coaches ask of them. And for you grown azz men to berate them is beyond reproach. I'd like to know your history and what programs you were such standout athletes on. No one is happy with the state of things right now, but what you are doing isn't hepling any. If you are so darn pissed with the program go to the adults responsible and leave these dang kids alone. I know some of these kids work dang hard and come from winning programs, mine does. And since I don't allow him to be rude to older adults, his mom don't have any problem telling you what she thinks.

[ohsixrain]

uh..uh...tmash33, I'm thinking you need a woosa! All jokes aside...I agree with you totally...the grades themselves are mostly a reflection of the coaching they've received. As I've stated on several threads this season, the kids deserve better....Hell, to be honest, you deserve better as a parent, we all deserve better. So our frustration is mainly at our administration's attitude of the state of athletics. I just hope that these young brothers hang in there b/c I know its tough. But pressure should be put on the admin and coaches, that's what they get paid the big bucks for.

Quarterback - no need for explanations

Running Backs - would get an A if someone can take it all the way to the house

Receivers - bad routes and little speed but the ball hasn't been on target for them

Offensive line - A&T has lost every time of possession so far this season. The closest the Aggies came to winning time of possession was against WSSU, the Rams led by 1 min; the rest of the games, A&T had deficients of -15 min, -9 min, -5.5 min, -11 min, and -13.5 min


Defensive Line - teams don't even bother throwing the ball, they just run

Linebackers - so-so

Secondary - OK, hasn't been a lot of passes thrown against them

Kickoff - need work

Punt - good

Return Unit - outstanding, four Kick-off returns for TDs

Coaching Staff - I have to admit I never saw an 0-6 W-L record coming, but I knew it wasn't looking good after 3 weeks of fall camp. This team just wasn't prepared to play good football this year.
