Shockey's camp comments on the U scandal

Recommended Posts

I was at training camp today and Shockey made an off-the-cuff remark to a fan wearing Miami Hurricanes gear. It went a little something like this.

"Hey there's a Miami guy. Don't listen what that media is saying." With Cam in the forefront of the crowd, "Hey they did that sh*t in Auburn too". Cam bows his head and shakes back and forth.

It's pretty much impossible to have a competitive, clean D1 program. Too many people involved - coaches, players, boosters, agents, tutors and on and on. You can't monitor everyone 24/7. However, Miami looks like SMU all over again. They didn't even try to hide it. When it runs that deep, you have to wonder how serious the NCAA truly is on compliance. Seems like it's hush hush until it blows up, then the NCAA is forced to act.

NCAA amateurism is a sham.

He could have said Ohio or USC, but why Auburn?

Purely directed at Cam.

Positioning was ... the crowd at the end zone, Cam and QB's working in the end zone and the rest of the team behind them working. Shockey was turned around facing Cam and the crowd. Cam was in the direct line of fire.

    • Yards a game works better over a longer period of time as well. Averages always work out over the long run. The smaller the sample size the easier it is to skew. Also opponents matter more when the size is small. Player 1 lights up 2 bad defenses in 4 starts vs Player 2 playing 10 games vs multiple defenses. It hard to make it apples to apples how it currently sits. Remember during Bryce’s little run last year how annoyed you were when people were pulling Bryce’s starts from week 9 on vs the whole season. 
    • Someone else claimed I said EVERY.  Literally in my post breaking it down it gave Bryce TDs per game.   Shough however has the majority in his favor if just looking at starts. whats subjective about comp %, yards, QB ratings and turnovers?  Now I guess the argument one might make off them could be subjective.  But all I’m saying is statistically as a starter he has been better this year overall.  I don’t think Shough is great.  I think he is impressive based on the situation.  2nd rounder stepping in on a bad team.   And he like so many other QBs…..serves as little red flag going off about what we are doing here offensively. 
    • Player A - 2 starts.  200 yards in each start. He averages 200 yards a game.  Player B - 1 start.  Throws for 400 yards.  Comes in another random game and has 1 pass attempt on a Hail Mary to end the game that goes incomplete.   Now given the random game he appeared for a snap, he averages 200 yards a game. Thats why you isolate starts. If you are talking starter vs someone who began as a backup.  Simple made up numbers/situations to illustrate the point.
