Tommi Hill
- Thread starter inWV
- Start date
When he first came to Lincoln, I remember Fisher gushing over his athleticism. Saw him as an NFL guy. Things didn't work for him at first at all, he was benched and then moved over to offense. The next staff was able to sort things out with Tommi and he's gangbusters now.
"Raw" is a matter of perspective. By NFL standards, every player in college is raw. I think for a college player, TH is pretty seasoned.
Odd that someone could still be considered "raw" as a college player entering their 4th year of college. Didn't he play at ASU for a season, too?
Have you guys not watched him?
Consider the programs he’s been a part of
Herm’s lameduck devils and mickeys misfits
Wasn’t until October of last year when he finally had a permanent side of the ball, much less role
I get it, but dude has played in like 30 college games, seems odd to still be raw at this point in one's college career.
I don't think he's raw, he just has a goofy demeanor sometimes, and leads to some awkward moments on the field. He's been solid though for the most part.
He’s had a couple of different DB coaches, flopped over to WR, and 2 different DCs. It’s not all that surprising that he’s not a finished product.
The way punters kick now with that low rugby style a punt return has become rare. Best think a returner can do is catch it before it bounces farther down field.
He had to have been close to getting into the portal after getting benched and pretty much kicked out of the CB room. Hill's comeback story is a testament to what kids can do under the right coach and system.
And yet Johnny the Jet went his entire career and NEVER made a fair catch.
Not saying Osborne is a liar but he may have forgotten every punt return that JR made for 3 years..
All i did was quote TO. If I recall it was a talk with Rhule, Tom, Tommie Frazier and Johnny Rodgers on You Tube. If it wasn't true JR had a chance to say something and didn't. I know Tom said Bob Devaney didn't want JR to fair catch the ball cause he looked at him as a weapon.
Maybe we need a fuvcking Congressional investigation to see if what TO said was true.
Sorry. It was just a joke about Osborne. I couldn’t sleep last night and it appears my 3am attempt at sarcasm missed the mark.
