Are you talking about the QB who had an NFL tryout?

Hauck didn't have a qb who had taken a snap at UM, but he was able to upgrade the position significantly.

What good did a 3d place finisher in frosh of the year do Hauck, by quitting the program? I guess he took all his picks with him when he departed.

You live in bizzaro world. You repeatedly mention the interception thing. Found some interesting things.

But before that you keep comparing a Junior QB who got all of the 1st team snaps through spring, summer and fall to a Freshman QB who didn’t take a 1st team snap until the week leading up to the EW game.

Jensen had 3 more Ints then Sneed and he through downfield significantly more. He had two less TD’s yet he played 3 1/2 less games.

Sneeds comp 62%. Jensen 60%

With all the attitude, physicality etc improvement the defenses of the last two years were almost identical. Opponents averaged 4.1 yards per rush in 2017 and 2018.

The passing yards allowed was only about 150 yds difference for the whole year.

2018 had more fumbles and fumbles lost then 2017.

Special teams, at least statistically have improved what I would consider substantially in 2018.

Sacks were down in 2018 from 40 to 24

Two corrections. Sneed's completion percentage was 62.8%, not 62. Jensen's was 60.2 last season. .636 per game for Sneed, compared to 1.18 Jensen. Jensen played in 2.5 less games, not 3.5.

I mention the interception thing, because it's a very important stat for a qb and a team. Sneed had 7 in 11 games. Jensen had 10 in 8.5 games. That's a significant difference.

Why don't you compare the o-lines from '17 to '18? O-lines, as you must know, have a large impact on an offense, passing game and qb? Do you not realize, or care, that 4 senior starters graduated last year, the one returning starter ended up getting hurt and not playing for much of the season, there were no seniors on the roster, 2 redshirt frosh started, 2 walk-ons started, and one starter was playing defense the first week of pre-season practice. Or, do you live in a blizzaro world where you believe the o-line doesn't affec the offense, the passing game, and the qb?

I was told that Jensen would have been "dead" this season, because he wasn't nearly as mobile as Sneed.

Did you attend any gams in person?

Why did Jensen's completion percentage drop to 58% this year at the JC? Just curious. I see that his picks improved.

What's your relation to Jensen?

I have to take these one at a time. 1st thank you for correcting the huge difference I was off by. lol 60 to 60.2 and 62 to 62.8.

1) This one is the most interesting to me. In another thread you argued against the facts/numbers and sited intangibles. Now its the opposite. Fact, Jensen threw the ball down field much more than Sneed. AS a person with football knowledge knows the further the pass the completion percentage goes down and the INT percentage goes up. This is proven by Jensens higher yards per completion average.

2) Jensen didnt play(other than garbage time in the Valpo and UW games. He played about half of Savanah State and he didnt play in the NAU game. Thats 3 1/2 games.

3) Once again you are comparing a freshman who didnt get any 1st team reps until the week of the EWU game to a Junior who got all the 1st team reps through spring, Summer and the fall. You would think that would account for something. You also would assume that a Freshman thrust into action under those circumstances would improve significantly with a full spring, summer and fall as the 1st team guy.
You said it was a significant upgrade which is laughable. The facts that what above did occur, Jensen threw downfield more was thrust into action with little preparation was only 3 INT's off and 2.6 off of Completion percentage for the season contradicts your opinion. And by the way. How many more TD's would Jensen have thrown had he played the extra 3.5 games?

4) Oline. Logically, yes this was a young oline but it was a young oline that hepled get this team big leads in several games and lost in the end. They gave up 5 more sacks than last year. And yes I have gone to games and watched on TV when I wasnt there. Quite a few sacks were on the run first QB trying to do to much instead of throwing it away. Conventional wisdom would suggest the opposing coaches made 2nd half defensive adjustments that HAUCK and Rosy didnt counter by play calling or schemes. The Oline didnt simply forget what they needed to do in the 1st half of games.

5) JUCO. Stop!! Juco is an entirely different animal. Apples and Oranges. If you want to compare Jensen and Sneed you have to compare Jensens Juco stats to Sneeds Juco stats and there is no comparison. Juco is set up for one year runs with 90% roster turnover yearly. Little time for cohesiveness.

6) This one is to funny. "Jensen would be dead if he were in there" . Really? who told you that? One of the guys who ran him out of town? No, he would have been fine. He is a passer first and instead of trying to do much and take drive killing sacks he would have simply threw it a way which he did last year. Sure it hurts the completion percentage a little but its better than taking the sack that doesnt hurt your percentage.

7) Finally, I dont know Jensen and never met him. It is almost pathetic how you come on here dropping names and pushing back against anyone the goes against your agenda. You go straight to the mattress's. Nobody could possibly know more than you. If that is the case you would know when Jensen left he had a meeting with Hauck and Rosy. They begged him to stay, told him he was going to be the guy and that maybe they went to far with the head games. Check your sources because if you really are in the know you would easily be able to verify this.

1. Jensen threw more very short passes too. But, feel free to provide better and more complete data.

2. Okay, I didn't think of NAU, nor do I even recall it.

3. Yes, I am comparing Jensen last year to Sneed this year. I am not comparing Jensen as a junior to Sneed as a junior. Yes, I believe there was a significant upgrade at qb this year. More accuracy, fewer interceptions, better runner, more mobile, and better leader. I would assume a qb in an offense geared to passing would get more TD's and production than a qb in a more balanced offense, which wasn't usually a pass first offense.

4. I disagree with your sack and qb assessment, and I know Hauck and the coaches I've talked to completely disagree with you. Jensen would have been sacked twice as much as Sneed was, and Jensen would have been hit much more and wouldn't have lasted the season, in my view, as well as others.

5. No, I don't have to compare JUCO to JUCO. Just wondering why Jensen would be less accurate a year later at a JUCO. Seems like he would have had a much better completion percentage.

6. Yes, dead. Sneed is way more mobile and faster than Jensen. Big difference there. So, now someone ran him out of town. He didn't decide on his own to move on?

7. I thought you just said that Jensen was "run out of town", in your item 6. Now, in the next item, you say the coaches begged him to stay.

8. When it counted against teams like EWU and Weber, Jensen was 51% with a pick, and 50% with 3 picks. His 4 best passing efficiency games were Valpo, Savannah St, Idaho St, No Dak, and No Colo. That's why he got some criticism for not performing well in tougher games.

9. I know that some of the offensive starters were fine that Jensen left and really liked Sneed.

10. I think you live in a dream world. Glad you have a happy place.

11. I don't have an agenda, other than generally defending players and coaches - when I believe they are getting unfair criticism. Other than that, I call em as I see em.

I for one hope Bob Stitt gets another FCS coaching job, preferably in the Big Sky:
1) He deserves it - he is better than many other FCS / Big Sky coaches. Many opinions about this, but his offense was becoming more consistent with a healthy QB. If you disagree, no need to kick the man when he's down. You should be happy if he gets hired by another Big Sky team if you don't like his coaching. Let's just see how things would play out...
2) The entertainment value of having his team in the Big Sky would be off the charts, with regular matchups against Gregorak and Hauck. Who wouldn't want to see those matchups on an almost annual basis?! 8-)

I don’t think he would fair very well as a BSC head coach. Face it - he could not take the Griz back to the top of the conference and actually had them headed the wrong direction when canned. How the hell is he going to take a Northern Colorado, Idaho or Cal Poly and make them a consistent contender. Won’t happen. Worse yet, he would lock up all the top receivers in the league for recruiting. He reminds me of my sister playing monopoly. She would buy all of the shitty properties thinking she would win. Usually the expensive green properties that you can rarely win with.

I respectfully disagree. The first year with "his guy" at QB would have been year 3, but even then Phillips went down with injury. Stitt took a Colorado Mines program that hadn't won a conference title since the 1950's and made them into a contender. Canning a guy after 3 winning seasons is a little rash, in my opinion. IF we had beat MSU his last year (which I contend we would have done if Chris Murray hadn't been playing), then Stitt is probably still here. And who knows what Jensen would have done in his first full year in the system? Maybe we make the playoffs this year...

Anyway, my main point is I hope we get to settle this once and for all (which would happen if he gets a 5-yr contract somewhere). :thumb:
 
UCD: played lights out for 3 quarters - then tried to do too much down the stretch
UND: badly
PSU: ugly

1. Jensen threw more very short passes too. But, feel free to provide better and more complete data.

Answer: Jensen had higher yards per completion

2. Okay, I didn't think of NAU, nor do I even recall it.

3. Yes, I am comparing Jensen last year to Sneed this year. I am not comparing Jensen as a junior to Sneed as a junior. Yes, I believe there was a significant upgrade at qb this year. More accuracy, fewer interceptions, better runner, more mobile, and better leader. I would assume a qb in an offense geared to passing would get more TD's and production than a qb in a more balanced offense, which wasn't usually a pass first offense.

Answer- doesn’t matter what you think. Jensen was only a freshman who had limited 1st team experience after being thrown in. He most certainly would have improved with a full year and his numbers would have certainly improved.

4. I disagree with your sack and qb assessment, and I know Hauck and the coaches I've talked to completely disagree with you. Jensen would have been sacked twice as much as Sneed was, and Jensen would have been hit much more and wouldn't have lasted the season, in my view, as well as others.

Answer- I really don’t have a high value of their opinion, neither should you. They will never admit to it and there is no way to know that would happen

5. No, I don't have to compare JUCO to JUCO. Just wondering why Jensen would be less accurate a year later at a JUCO. Seems like he would have had a much better completion percentage.

Answer- yeah you really do for all the reasons I listed

6. Yes, dead. Sneed is way more mobile and faster than Jensen. Big difference there. So, now someone ran him out of town. He didn't decide on his own to move on?

Answer- that’s your opinion. There is nothing to back up that would happen

7. I thought you just said that Jensen was "run out of town", in your item 6. Now, in the next item, you say the coaches begged him to stay.

Answer- that is what happened and he was run out. If a player was treated like he was all winter and spring it only when you say you are leaving does their tune change.... Would you trust anything they said or did?

8. When it counted against teams like EWU and Weber, Jensen was 51% with a pick, and 50% with 3 picks. His 4 best passing efficiency games were Valpo, Savannah St, Idaho St, No Dak, and No Colo. That's why he got some criticism for not performing well in tougher games.

Answer: glad you brought this up. Ewu was his 1st ever start. He never went 10-28 especially against PSU

9. I know that some of the offensive starters were fine that Jensen left and really liked Sneed.

10. I think you live in a dream world. Glad you have a happy place.

11. I don't have an agenda, other than generally defending players and coaches - when I believe they are getting unfair criticism. Other than that, I call em as I see em.
 
Yards per completion. 11.3 to 14.3 (Jensen). Okay on that stat being an indicator, but yards after catch would have to be factored in. YAC obviously adds distance to short throws.

Jensen threw picks in '17 at almost double the rate of Sneed. .034 to .018. Very significant.

Jensen ran for 203 yards, for a 3.8 average per rush. Sneed had 675 yards, for 5.2 per rush.

As for your Jensen was only a frosh and not the starter early augment, I say so what. That is irrelevant for comparing the years that the two quarterbacks had.

How did Sneed do against UCD and UND and PSU?

The point/rap on Jensen was that he didn't do well in BIG games.

As for Sneed, 25-38 (66%) against UND and 25-37 (68%) against Davis. Way better than Jensen's 50% in the big games.

Sneed had bad first half against PSU and better second half. He was the main reason UM was in the game, actually had the lead, at the end.
 
UND: Griz scored zero points with Sneed at QB. He threw an interception on play 3 - UND scored on next play. He had -11 rushing yards.

And THIS is why we love you, PR. Your precision use of statistics to make your point.

And what about being in the game against UND? Or going entire halves without scoring? Was he the main reason for that too?

I already statistically proved you wrong so I'm not going to rehash old arguments, however you always seem to ignore the negatives....fumbles....the $#%@% fumbles by Sneed. :)

Compare the juco stats, both were sophomores then. Gresch smokes Sneed out of the ballpark. The fact is your cherry pick stats, you don't look at them overall. That's the lawyer in you, only going to use what you think proves your argument. And in your own world it does. This is called Trumpism.

It's all moot, we shall see next year.
 
As for Sneed being better than Jensen I have to disagree. Jensen had a better QB rating 148.2 to 137.6. Sneed is a fumbler with seven total and five lost. Jensen had three total and two lost. Of the four games Sneed fumbled in we lost three.

You also need to consider that if we go with Jensen we still have two years with him compared to just one with Sneed. A better QB and an extra year. Can’t argue with that.

And I will disagree right back. Sneed was way better this year, than Jensen last year.

As for fumbles, Sneed had too many. However, at least 2 of his lost fumbles were not his fault, as he was hit early from the blindside. Sneed carried the ball a lot more Jensen. Jensen played only in 7.5 games, compared to 11 for Sneed. UM's less experienced o-line gave up alot of sacks and left Sneed under pressure alot. Opponent QB hurrys were significantly more in 2018 than in 2017. Those things led to more fumbles. Jensen would have been sacked much more than Sneed behind this year's o-line, due to Jensen's okay but not great mobility. Feel free to ask any offensive coach.

Jensen threw interceptions at almost twice the rate of Sneed, on a per pass basis. That is a significant difference. Sneed was a much better runner and considerably faster.

Agree that fumbles really hurt UM this year. While some of those were Sneed's, most weren't.

The argument of years of eligibility is irrelevant to a discussion of which qb is better in a particular year or years.
 
Here are stats on Jensen's passing efficiency. As you will see, he was not above his season average in any of the tougher games. Only Savannah St, Ida. St., No. Dak. and No. Colo. He had 128.69 against Weber, which was the closest he came to his season average in a tougher game. Based on passing efficiency, the wrap of him not stepping up in tougher game seems to be accurate.


Washington 91.87
Savannah State 225.68

You are really mind blowing. In one topic you argue intangibles over stats.

In this one you argue you Jensens Juco stats to this years to Sneeds Stats at Montana this year and no intangibles.
But I cant reverse it and compare Jensens JUCO stats this year to Sneeds Juco Stats last year. Too funny.

For some bizzare reason you cant acknowledge that Jensen was a freshman thrust into action with little preparation and that with a full year to prepare , he wouldnt have improved???
You than argue that Sneeds fumbles were not all his fault but you would disagree if I said 5 of Jensens INT's last year bounced off the recievers chest into the hands of the defender.

Somehow you have determined that Jensen threw way more "very short passes" than Sneed. I watched both offenses and this year was more of a dink and dunk offense as seen by yards per completion.
Am I suppose to believe that This year was the Griz YAC was less?

So I am going to sure YOUR argument comparing what Jensen did Last season to what Sneed di this season only I am going to reverse it. Oh, and by the way is more relevant because they were both Sophomores and both at JUCO

Sneed(Last Year Juco Stats)- 136 Comp. 213 attempts 63.8% for 1257 yards, 5.9 yards per completion, 7 TD's and 11 Ints,113.9 effic, 295 rushing for an ave. 3.7 yards, 1 rushing TD, 3 fumbles and 3 fumbles lost

Jensen(This year JUCO stats- 159 Comp, 274 attempts 58% for 2330 Yards, 8.5 yards per completion, 16 TD's and 5 ints, 145.1 Effic, 289 yards rushing for an ave of 5.6 yards, 6 Rushing TD's, 1 fumble and 1 fumble lost.

I know you wont like this because in this case using you very own method of comparing this year to last year.

Jensen was better in Completions, passing yards, Yards per completion, a substantially better TD to Int ratio, Passing efficiency, Yards per Carry, Rushing TD's, less fumbles, more passing TD's, less int's
 
The only stats that matter going forward is how GJ plays on the other side of the ball against the Griz these next 2 years. That'll be a sight to see!!
