I think CPJ's overriding issue with young players is you play if/when you can help us win. His other issue with young players is he is reluctant to burn a redshirt unless the player will get meaningful playing time.
What was going on with the UM players just before the start of the game when most of their team rushed to the NE end zone corner and blocked the last few GT players coming on the field. Many kneeled and seem to be baiting the GT fans? What was that all about? For a moment it looked like the...
When time expired I saw T Oliver race out of the player entrance to the field under the North/East corner of the stands WITHOUT his helmet. He must have been in the locker room on the last drive. He only played two plays, one sweep where he got whacked good and the other a handoff. I wonder if...
I got the Justin Thomas #5 white Jersey larger than I needed so I could wear it over whatever the weather called for. I'm ready for the Caines revenge. Go Jackets.
My understanding is if he had not already redshirted he could get it but rules have been tightened and it is no longer a given if you already "voluntarily" redshirted.
My guess about the safeties is that VT has been burned by the big play and the long pass the past two games against us and he knows CPJ is just waiting to pull that trigger (although this year I am not sure there is much pulling the pass trigger will accomplish). People play their 3 technique T...
In addition to taking the all conference DT , #8, out with the double team and often running (left) away from him, we had the WRs block inside on the LB (and if he blitzed they picked up the S) and the ABs blocked out on the CBs. When the D right tackle started laying back and charging wider to...
I saw one really new wrinkle in our goal line attack. On one score by Mason off right tackle we had our walk-on 236 lb BB line up at left AB. He went in motion and led the blocking in the hole where we scored. This was a good use of our personnel by CPJ.
I thought our blocking scheme was a brilliant move. As I saw it early we were double teaming the really good DL player #8 and running away from him toward the younger players. Later after we wore them down some we could run almost anywhere due to very powerful OLine blocking along with some AB...
I agree with the perception that Carter pushed off (which he did) and at the time in the stands I thought we would get the flag. But if you watch the film you will see the Duke DB holding on to the throat of Carter's jersey before and during Carter's push. I believe the refs saw the holding by...
I would be happy if CPJ does what he does BUT hires an Offensive passing guru who would coach the passing attack and call the pass plays for CPJ. We currently have no clue how to pass in a passing situation and CPJ has obviously not prepared the team to do so. In fact we cannot even line up in a...
Look at the play where we should have trapped Duke in their own end zone. Who was in great position but took the bad angle and failed to make what should have been a play for a safety?
Every week we face a new opponent with a different O and different key personnel to defend. Someone has to put together a team to simulate the opponent in practice. He has to coach up a lot of players for different roles each week. That Scout team coach needs to be a very experienced and...
IMO we have not seen enough of Oliver's passing to judge his performance level. He was a little off in accuracy against Duke but what I liked was that he seems to know where his receivers are, and that is an upgrade in our passing game.
The sad news is we know what many of our problems are and we are not fixing them. Such as:
No passing game by anybody anytime anywhere
Can't get enough third down stops even on 3rd and 12
DBs can't cover the short passes and yet we let receivers continually get behind us
We can't return a KO
We...
