[QUOTE="CuseJacket, post: 9785, member: 274"] The light bulb certainly has not come on in full force for Vad. I think he's doing great given his experience or lack thereof, but no one would state he's a master. It appears everyone is on the same page about this, and unless we see drastic improvement this week specifically I think we will likely see it come back and bite us in the not too distant future. I agree it might not be Vad alone, but the point stands that he and the offense may not be able to overcome a shaky game from the defense simply due to some "unstoppable force". Re: will we win the next 3 games? The math says no. Not only will we be an underdog at Miami (i.e., we are likely to lose if the game were played today), but the math states that a 6-point favorite loses more than 25% of the time. Best case scenario says we are favored by 6 or less against our next two opponents, and therefore the most likely scenario dictates we go 1-1. Of course there will be other factors in play such as momentum, injuries, etc but I think it's completely unrealistic to [U]expect[/U] that we win the next three. Assuming we lose at least one, it will be very interesting to see if it's due to Vad's lack of understanding of the offense (e.g., will he continue to make reads slightly too slow) or if it'll be some combination of other things, which I think is most likely. You have to believe UNC, VT, and/or Miami have tricks up their sleeves that could sway a game 7 points if we're caught off guard. The same could also be said for us (e.g., has Golden broken one in the return game yet?) that could compensate and further hide deficiencies elsewhere in our team's ability to execute. [/QUOTE]
