Cody Hoffman Late night thoughts tweet

I agree with him completely

Interesting that this is a receiver who is standing up in defense of the QB. ......and not the receivers.

yup. To me that says a lot.

It's pretty obvious that this is the worst performing group of receivers BYU has ever fielded (yes, a touch of hyperbole). Ben Cahoon is so gifted at making impossible catches that he has no idea how to teach how to catch at all, because to him it's just something you do. How would you teach someone to breath? Or wiggle their ears?

I'm glad to see Cody stand up like that. I'm pleased to believe that, at least most of the posts here have been critical of the team ... noting Taysom's mistakes, hammering on receivers (a good game there would have lead to an entirely different outcome), pointing out defensive errors, etc.

I thought it was pretty obvious last night that Scott D. Pierce greased our pink gloves with vasoline last night so that our wide receivers would play like a bunch of sissies.

Funny. WRs that couldn't catch balls thrown by Heaps or Nelson could magically catch again once Christian Stewart was put in.

also funny...
2014 when Christian Stewart was qb, we were playing with a newish receiver coach (Holliday) and I can't remember a lot of drops when Taysom was qb that year before he got off to a 4-0 start and a broken ankle.

a lot happened between heaps/Nelson and stewart. maybe you were thinking of Lark, mars?

14-15 had some good BYU receivers (qbs = hill, stewart and mangum). Hard to tell if the receivers were just more talented or Holliday actually was that much better a position coach.

You may be right. Either way, it seems easier to catch balls not thrown low and behind you, over your head, or fastball-hard from 7 yards away.

True. But when it hits you in the mitts and you have a open field in front of you to the endzone, but some CB bats the ball away in a last ditch effort as he flied by.... that sucks too.

I'm not saying Taysom is the most accurate guy out there. But he's not the only problem the offense has.
