Tight Ends

[saluno22]

I haven't had the opportunity to sit down and watch the whole game yet (just listened on the radio yesterday), but I didn't hear much from the tight ends. Looking at the statistics, Stoll had a kickoff return on the squib kick late in the game, and he and Rafdal each had one reception for 4 and 14 yards, respectively. Austin Allen also shows up on the participation report, but I don't recall hearing his name called on the radio broadcast.

How did we use them in the offense yesterday? I recall at UCF, Frost would move his TE all over the formation, I suppose our TEs aren't that versatile while we wait for Katerian Legrone to develop, is that correct?

Yesterday, from what I could see at the game, Frost used them mostly in blocking schemes in his quads. I would suspect he'll used them more against Troy.

Now that you mention it I don't recall a single completion to a TE

I think we'll see more of them. We were playing a first game with a true Frosh QB, and I suspect most of the TE routes are when the QB gets through a progression or something the Frost would call after seeing the flow of the game more.

Rafdal had one reception, my thought was why we're one of those guys used on the last series in the end zone both rafdal and Allen are tall a db nightmare in the end zone

Yeah either that or Reimers. Would have been nice to have someone other than a 5'10 receiver out there. Also if Bunch could actually throw it in bounds and give his receivers a chance.
