Cronkrite Transferring
- Thread starter Michi-Gator
- Start date
So what. Can't believe the staff even gave him PT again after what he pulled midseason. He'd have had to leave right then if I was the coach.
It was reported around midseason that he had missed a couple practices to think about his future at UF. Wasn't hurt or anything, just didn't show up to practice to decide if he wanted to keep playing at UF or not. And there was pics of him floating around at a Miami tailgate.
The coaches claimed it was going to be a 4-way committee at RB, and then they changed their minds and decided to give it mostly to just one guy, Scarlett.
So was Scarlett that much better than the other 3 RB's?
Scarlett 4.8 ypc - Perine 4.8 ypc - Cronkrite 4.7 ypc - Thompson 4.5 ypc
So obviously the committee approach wasn't working...
And imo, Scarlett whiffed on more blocks than the other 3 combined.
Best blockers: Perine & Thompson
Best receivers: Perine & Cronkrite
Best at smoozing the coaches,,, evidently Scarlett?
I don't blame Cronkrite for re-thinking where he wanted to be. It looked pretty un-fair to me at the time, and matter of fact, it still does.

Or alternatively, IF the coaches lie and/or become uncommitted to all 4 of their top rated RB's, then maybe everyone but Scarlett should be looking to GTFOD?
(I certainly hope not, but I'm not blaming or dissing on Cron for doing so)
I'm not sure where you're going with this narrative. Have the coaches ever claimed they'd play all 4 backs regardless of performance into perpetuity? Every game is different, you don't just keep playing 4 backs regardless of circumstance for the hell of it. This isn't pop warner where everybody gets to play. You keep comparing YPC averages like its the be all end all. Remind me again which defenses most of Cronkrite's carries game against.
I just hope Scarlett can get the blocking part down next season. Its almost like he has zero peripheral vision when you watch most of those passing plays when he is back there. Haven't really watched Perine too close when it comes to that. Taylor was pretty good at pass blocking despite his size.
For the Uninformed of the world,,,, Cronkrite =/= Cronkite
===========
For the argumentative dicheads of the world, did the coaches say that they would use a committee during the 2016 season, or not?
And do you continue to play the WORST blocking RB, when you already have a weak/young/injured OL?
And when your QB's largely depend on the short passing game, why are the 2 best blocking and/or receiving RB's on the bench during the passing downs.
And do you let a tFr RB bring the ball down inside the 10 yard line, so that you can then put in the other guy to get all of the credit for all of the rushing TD's?
One RB fumbles one time and he gets benched.
Another RB fumbles more than once but he keep on playing.
Many questions to be asked, IF your own bias doesn't get in your way....

He never should have saw the field again after pulling his little stunt earlier in the year. I heard there were several players upset that the staff let him come back.
Fans = Noise ---- You got one, the other always comes with it...
I was making fun of Zook, not fans from 2016.
