TreeCast post-UO - troyc - 10-03-2022
New show posted this morning...postgame from David Shaw, Casey Filkins, and Levani Damuni. Stanford is a second-half team...but that's not necessarily a good thing. And I'm surprised by who I think Stanford's best player is right now.
Download, listen, rate & review....and enjoy (somehow). Thank you for checking out the show!

The TreeCast w/Troy Clardy: Stanford Stumbles In Eugene (October 3, 2022)
"Stumbles"???!!! Here are a few suggested alternatives to "stumbles":
"continues its horrible play in Eugene"
"continues to be uncompetitive in Eugene"
"narcoleptic in Eugene"
"crushed early in Eugene"
"slumbers in Eugene"
"goes through the motions in Eugene"
"players and coaches outprepared and outclassed in Eugene"
"plastered yet again in Eugene"
"blown out again in Eugene"
IMO, any of these would be more accurate and less euphemistic than "stumbles."
P.S. David Shaw: "It's a ridiculous thing to say, but if you look at our positive plays, you see a really good football team. If you look at our negative plays, you don't see a good football team." Sorry, that's true of ANY bad football team, as is the claim that we will be a better team by the end of the season.

Being a 2H team is definitely a bad, repeat, BAD thing for laggard like Stanford this year because of the damage that a quality or even a near-quality outfit can do in the first 30 minutes. Which is to put the game out of reach! Just what Oregon did last week. And I suspect that we've not seen the end of these meltdowns. Look, I like TC and I like his podcast but his reticence to call out negatives in more blunt language is getting irksome. I want to know what he thinks about this program's steady decline and how it can be righted. He's flirting with partisanship right now and, sorry, it's not a good look.

Appreciate you listening as always!

I always appreciate Troy's access and insights, and I accept that he absolutely will not engage in any type of "fire the coach" discussions. But there is a big gap between calling for coaches to be fired and soft-pedalling the obvious coaching issues in this program, and doing so in a fact-based way.
There are serious, significant issues in the program and I do wish Troy would be more of a straight shooter on those issues. I'm reaching the point where I will pay a lot more attention to his pre-game podcasts than his post-game ones because of this.
