Ran for over a thousand. He could be good. He could also be awful and he has unproven weapons. But you know

shimmy In play, run(s)

Sports talk radio is just hottake central. They don’t really believe what they are saying, they’re just trying to be provocative.

Way home one of the few times listening

BYU71

10:45am

5’10” run first. Ok

Longseason

10:46am

Max 5’9” if he’s listed anywhere at 5’10”.

mulletino

11:00am

He was also on a bad team. He’s athletic. Could be good. Who knows?

pink22

10:48am

Dampier is a great player, he probably had offers from a lot big programs

NGB

10:49am

Were you one of the guys on 1280?

BYU71

10:50am

Cause it's a popular opinion. He's good

NGB

10:56am

He could be. I had 2 reasons why I have doubts.

BYU71

10:59am

The reason is this:

NGB

11:04am

Is there a difference between good and great, you said great?

BYU71

11:05am

You're really going to be this pedantic? Why?

NGB

12:25pm

Playing against MWC teams and going to a team where the HC is known for crippling his QBs. I like our chances

TADOW

11:35am

Why don't you provide so detail on why he is "good." The data doesn't necessarily agree with you but you keep doubling

TheLoneCougar

2:16pm

What? Why? Why is there any debate in this thread?

NGB

3:49pm

They/we are doubting him because of his numbers where were expressed in the OP.

TheLoneCougar

3:58pm

I think BYU fans are underestimating Dampier. He is a perfect fit for the run

spidercoug

10:51am

They’d say nicer things about him if he were transferring anywhere else

Polecat

Every offense needs the threat of a passing game.

Ran for over a thousand. He could be good. He could also be awful and he has unproven weapons. But you know

Better off making RB comparisons for a better reference

CougarCanuck76

11:00am

I thought the Ute problem was poor

BYU71

11:03am

QBs have to either run or pass. Ute qbs couldn't do either. They were so reliant

spidercoug

11:07am

He had a higher QBR than Retzlaff

Charles Darwin

11:01am

Is there a passing comarison?

BYU71

11:04am

QBR accounts for passing, running, and opponent

Charles Darwin

11:05am

I got Retzlaff 136.4. Dampier 121.6. Correct me if wrong.

BYU71

11:14am

That is passer rating not QBR

Charles Darwin

11:17am

Right, my question above was about passing.

BYU71

11:32am

I thought the question was why were they excited about him

Charles Darwin

11:33am

Someone mentioned QBR. I then asked about passer rating. See above.

BYU71

11:36am

I thought you were talking about the OP. If you see my reply I mentioned passer

Charles Darwin

11:43am

OK, makes Jake's higher passer rating better what I showed.

BYU71

12:04pm

Their QBR isn’t all that close. Every metric has its strength and weakness.

Charles Darwin

12:17pm

67.7 vs 71.2. Is that a big difference. Does it consider level of competition?

BYU71

11:20am

It accounts for quality of opponent

Charles Darwin

11:27am

Yes it accounts for quality of defense

spidercoug

11:27am

Having watched Dampier, he’s pretty good
