Highlight Videos - DPJ & Tarik Black
Hey guys, in the past few weeks I've collaborated with Donovan Peoples-Jones and Tarik Black on a couple videos. It's always fun working with these guys - hope you enjoy.

Sorry about that, let me try to embed here in the comments:
EDIT - Yeah, twitter embeds no longer work I guess? Strange. Sorry guys.

Have to remove the emojis in the plain text editor before posting

Ah - that'd do it. Thank you for the info.

These two need to step up next season. Toughest schedule in America.
Excited as hell!

It’s toughest based on our opponents’ performances this year, but I don’t think it’ll prove as tough next year. It won’t be easy but I don’t think it’s that brutal. Get Shea in and coach up two tackles and we’re talking championship!
January 17th, 2018 at 4:07 PM ^
In fact, make it a double!

I really like the matchup of run-heavy ND vs. this defense week one when they're replacing a bunch of starters on O.
Also get Nebraska early (probably easier that way?), a bye before Penn State and they don't have to play someone like Wisconsin before OSU this year.
January 17th, 2018 at 6:16 PM ^
Notre Dame and Penn State each lose a great deal of talent and coaching. The bye before PSU is nice since it seems that we always get poorly timed byes and our tough opponents always seem to get very convenient ones (PSU had their bye before our game with them last year as well as in 2015).
I think we will beat Notre Dame. Either way, I think we will win every game between ND and OSU. All of this is in fact dependent on the QB situation improving i.e. Shea being eligible or BP/DM taking a gargantuan leap.

Like the poorly timed bye week before MSU last year?
January 17th, 2018 at 3:08 PM ^
How that TD with his left toe down was reviewed and ruled not to be a catch is simply beyond me. DPJ and everyone besides the ref knew that was a touchdown.
January 17th, 2018 at 4:09 PM ^
compared to the Purdue out of bounds call from last week. If you're going to go frame by frame for reviews, then this is a TD
January 17th, 2018 at 3:26 PM ^
Yikes. This WR Corps has upside unlike we've seen since Manningham and Breaston. Hard not to get super excited.
January 17th, 2018 at 3:28 PM ^
Our offense could make a ridiculous jump. That Rice tackle would be a HUGE get as well. Karan is real complimentary of Omaury. Obviously Chris as well but that's a given. Omaury may suprise next year. He's explosive and better than most realize.
January 17th, 2018 at 3:29 PM ^
One of the things that jumps out at me watching the two short videos is Black's first step after catching the ball on pass outside. Its explosive. He catches, plants and goes. DPJ seems to survey the field first and is slow to get going.

He does not look like a freshman and it comes naturally.

Dude who put up 149 yards getting hype videos made of him says something about our offense. First thing I thought was "is this gonna be a 20 second highlight vid?"
January 17th, 2018 at 6:38 PM ^
I think Black would have been great this year and maybe worth another win or two. He is one of the most impressive Freshman WR I can recall right out of the gate.
January 17th, 2018 at 4:15 PM ^
Tarik is going to be really good
January 17th, 2018 at 4:26 PM ^
is this a 30 second video?
January 17th, 2018 at 4:36 PM ^
More to come in 2018!
January 17th, 2018 at 9:52 PM ^
I forgot what a competent passing attack looked like.
January 17th, 2018 at 10:00 PM ^
The whole board was bitching about how Speight couldn’t throw a a deep ball. We were so young and naive then...
January 18th, 2018 at 12:41 PM ^
I so badly want to be excited about the '18 team, but I can't shake the dumpster fire of an offense I witnessed this past season. Brutal O-line. Clear QB regression across the board and overall terrible QB play. Receivers only able to run a couple of routes. Beyond vanilla play-calling. Very few players on offense showed improvement from '16 and I saw some alarming regression.
I can't fathom how, after 4 weeks of Bowl practices, this offense could look THAT bad against a mediocre team.
I think '18 is going to be brutal. I hope and pray that I'm wrong, but my confidence in this coaching staff has been shattered. That offense was Brady Hoke '14 level of bad.
