I saw that in a reply too. Then the coach goes on to say that “we are not that team and the player is not that kind of player” - well to keep in present tense I would say evidently you are. How about saying “we will correct this” and then do it.
We have a new commitment! QB Mitchell Dixon out of Sacramento. I can't find his season long statistics, but he is a big boy for a QB standing at 6'4 220 and his highlights show that he can drop bombs. Does not appear to be overly mobile.
I watched his senior highlight tape, and he had 4-5 20 yard runs, wouldn't avoid contact. He moves pretty decent for a big guy. Can throw it against his body with strength, on the run, can tear drop it in, and even the shovel pass flip. Threw it 55 yards for a game winning TD w 4 seconds remaining against his body, not 100% planted.
As far as I can tell he only had a PWO to Wyoming. He was retweeting another player's PWO offer to VT. I don't think he's the type of player you will see scramble a whole lot at the D1 level, but he did show he was able to throw on the run.
The QB battle this next year will be interesting. A lot of guys in the running, none of which have a whole lot of experience. Truly a situation where there wasn't a clear "next guy in line".
Holy hell... UC Davis just landed 3 star tight end Michael Ambagtsheer. Had more than 20 offers including schools like Utah, Utah State, Boston College, San Diego State, Rice, etc.
LB Jackson Cloyd*** - 6'3", 220#s, an Oregon coach said he can play inside & outside positions; at one point was the #1 rated LB in Orange County in HS.
It's always tough to crack a line up as a true freshman PWO. I think he'll get his chance to shine at Davis. With Anesi and Flowers graduating there will be a couple spots to fill.
