What's the latest with Rice's ...
... use of the STRIVR Lab virtual reality training aid to improve our QB performance?

I haven't heard much since it was introduced in 2015 as a "no-brainer" player-improvement technology:

From STRIVR twitter

Quote:Love seeing one of our teams, @UVa_Football, start off 5-1 after 2-10 last season. Nice turnaround for the Cavaliers. #VRworks #HoosRising

Quote:The @dallascowboys are seeing success with virtual reality training. @STRIVRlabs #Cowboys

There is a reference to Rice, but it was a good wishes due to the Hurricane. I guess we still have it, but haven't heard a thing.

Heard someone spilled a Coke on it. I think we are now waiting for the XBox One X to come out in November.

Well, when the best you can get to campus is an athlete, who is more TE than QB and the rest are undersized, skinny or slow... might as well mothball it.

The John Madden cartridge glitched as well.

undersized, skinny and slow wasn't the reason for

That whole MK's post about rabbit ears and all, but now we've just straight up decided to chuck our football players under the bus? If only they were better...

Just wow. Sure Glaesmann or Smalls may not be Tom Brady or Russel Wilson, but give them a season with Urban Meyer or Tom Herman, and just see. Setting them up to fail and them blaming them for said failure - just not cool.

The problem is not really that much about the players but the coaches. We have one sophomore QB Tyner and the rest freshmen. We must not have recruited what we needed to have an upperclassman in place. The rest of the team not just QB are young. The present coaching is not good enough to get them to execute probably although UTSA was an improvement over the previous blowouts.
