Except that we were competitive almost every week in CPJs 3 win season. This team has been out of the game multiple times in the 1st half.

Every coach ever has wanted relentless effort. This is not a differentiator. If he wants to sell it like it is, fine, but there needs to be some other substance to go with it, and so far, I’m not seeing it.

I understand wanting to put a positive spin on things, but I just can’t get used to a HC who continually spouts lies. He’s hoping we match the “electric” atmosphere we’ve had in BDS this year, meanwhile the atmosphere is currently as bad as I’ve seen. I’m also still trying to figure out how...

They might not be “elite”, but we’ve seen numerous games where we just weren’t prepared to play. I skipped a home game for the first time in over 20 years this season. I sat through the least competitive game I’ve seen in BDS Saturday, and this was not an elite opponent. As badly as we’ve...

I believe it was VT 2012 when we scored with exactly 44 seconds on the clock. Of course they went on to score then too. When we scored yesterday, I thought surely our new and improved defense wouldn’t let that happen again. So much for that. I also couldn’t stop thinking of Woody Danzler...

I’m not saying I expect to win 10 games, but it’s not unreasonable to expect to not be out of the game in the 1st half against Duke, lose to a below average FCS team, and consistently get beat by multiple scores to a bunch of average ACC teams. I realize our OL was recruited for CPJs offense...

It’s difficult to judge Collins at this point based on the results of his few seasons as a head coach. With only a few years under his belt he’s obviously inexperienced, but his potential is unknown. He did fine at Temple with someone else’s players. It wasn’t a disaster but he didn’t...

He is less elusive when pressured, but I’ve seen him run well once he gets going. He was close to scoring on that play, and let’s not forget TO had his own goal line fumble, followed by another fumble this year. With our current protection, he might not be our best option, but given decent...

I was happy to see Lucas Johnson get some time, as much as that goal line fumble sucked. My take on LJ is that he looks less able to maintain composure when the OL is getting beat regularly than JG, but he might be our best passer. He looks more like a real QB who can confidently make a variety...

You must not remember the Pat Nix offense that scored 6 points to lose an ACC championship with Calvin Johnson and Tashard Choice on the team.

Crazy game. We did a lot of good things and a lot of dumb things. Officiating seemed to favor Miami, but we weren’t doing ourselves any favors a few times. Harvin is our MVP for the second consecutive season. OL must have done a lot right to move the ball on Miami as well as we did. Also...

on my third free trial of the season. 2 on YouTube tv and Hulu today.

I’d guess ND fans will fill the upper seats. I’d think that our season ticket holders would make up a pretty good percentage of the lower seats, but maybe not after this season.

Funny how after 1 off day on offense and they want to completely change the style of their offense. It’s no wonder our fan base wanted to ditch CPJs offense whenever it wasn’t able to overcome our consistently bad defenses. The consistent chorus of criticism provided by our local media just...

I would guess they suspected that TO was not the long term answer, but had by far the most game experience. Particularly for going into an opener at Clemson. Tobias started at VT last year and was not phased by a big hostile crowd, so it made sense to start the year with a known quantity...

The crowd on Saturday looked exactly like what I expected. After several decades with no consistent success, it is what it is. Mostly the same group of hardcore fans that have always showed up in down years are the ones still there. The slight influx of fans that came in during CPJs initial...

I wonder if he could play but figures the pass protection will improve dramatically next year making for a much more productive senior year.

CGC keeps all the best players on defense because he obviously doesn’t care about offense.

I think he recruited as well or better on that side of the ball, but without the advantage of his system. I would guess negative recruiting on the DL along with the standard recruiting to GT that has been an issue for decades. I’m a huge CPJ fan, but we obviously weren’t recruiting or weren’t...

I think most football coaches understand how great CPJ’s system is when you’re able to recruit to it well. The problem is all of the negative recruiting that goes on at the P5 level where you need at least some NFL talent to win. It’s understandable that a lot of the most talented players...
