Just don't get it ?No 11 - alex_9 - 09-18-2015

How you play as a true freshmen to no snaps after one game ??We gave Wayne 3yrs to figure it out.He must be really bad at practice!

Could be that Meeks just stepped up.  I doubt Alexander got worse.

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=A67xQxwau6Y    Just ment nothing so why burn his redshirt to do the kid that.So every other spot gets a pass for not playing up to standard.Sorry not him!

Stats show him as having played two games. 

Depth chart still shows him as the starting nickel back.

Not on Defense,my friend doesn't even want to talk to me about what's going on that's why I chime in on here.To maybe get answers for myself

Sometimes we don't have answers either...sigh!

He could have been injured or subject to some sort of discipline.  There's no public information available.
Assuming he's able and permitted to play, I expect he'll get plenty of snaps this week.
U$C plays 3+ WRs almost 2/3 of the time per this analysis:  http://thecardboard.org/board/index.php?topic=12817.0.
That suggests Stanford will be in the nickel approximately the same percentage of the time (maybe more).
When U$C does play 3+ WRs, we'll usually see Mitchell or Adoree, either of whom is a good size/speed matchup for #11.
Also, U$C plays a no-huddle offense, which means that the DBs will get a bit more tired and need more substitutions than they did last week against UCF's slower-paced offense.

He was not Akina recruit short and sweet.Coaches live with the guys they like.No discipline problem,no injury!

If you already know the answer, why are you asking the question?


Re: Just don't get it ?No 11 - BostonCard - 09-18-2015

Neither was Harris, and he's one of our starting cornerbacks.  Add... Neither are Lloyd or Whitfield, and  Holder an Murphy are in the same class as Alexander.

I agree that it is a bit odd that Alexander, who acquitted himself quite well last year as a backup cornerback and nickel back, is seemingly in the doghouse.  I had expected him to start opposite to Harris going into the camp.

If anyone I mean anyone can give me a real explanation I would greatly appreciate it.Im getting no where talking to the family.They are totally clueless.THANKS


Re: Just don't get it ?No 11 - alex_9 - 09-18-2015

Maybe burn redshirt to get him out the way???

That's just silly; there's no point in burning a redshirt because if you don't think someone can contribute then you simply don't invite them for a fifth year.

Boston Card can you please explain to me what the hell has he done!



Re: Just don't get it ?No 11 - BostonCard - 09-18-2015

The heck if I know.  But I'm a believer in Occam's razor.

Alexander acquitted himself pretty well as a True Frosh.  As far as we know, he may end up starting at CB next year. 

Perhaps you can ask Andy Drukarev or David Lombardi to poll Shaw, Anderson, and/or Akina about Alexander's playing status? 


Re: Just don't get it ?No 11 - alex_9 - 09-18-2015

So he at lease was in rotation as a freshman,that's to fast to out play someone.He didn't miss a tackle To gave up a TD.So that clearly not it! O not on the field enough to really get used like he did vs Washington State! Memory laps.After Utah game played much better.Im not buy he did something wrong,I'm buying they like other players!You can't correct mistakes by not getting an opportunity(#2) got several.


Re: Just don't get it ?No 11 - BigEasyCard - 09-18-2015

I fully expect #11 to see action tomorrow.

We will be cheering from the Blind Pelican in New Orleans for him, the other Louisiana guys, and all of their Stanford teammates.

Geaux Cardinal!
