[QUOTE="4shotB, post: 447500, member: 844"] I don't generally disagree with your overall statement or beliefs but I wonder how the last few years have influenced our thinking, especially in relation to the statement I have quoted. We have become so gun shy about our D that we (referring to the fan base for sure and possibly to the team and coaches???) all feel pressure that we MUST score every time we touch the ball. I wonder if this somehow doesn't influence how the team performs and to some degree what Paul does and doesn't do in terms of risk management, play calling, personnel development. No way would I trade a win today for a (possible) payout next season. And quite frankly, CPJ simply cannot afford that given the outcomes of the recent seasons. OTOH, I think a "change of pace" or letting the backup play when the starter is not getting things done (remember Byerly coming off the bench against Duke?) can be effective at times. Do I think it should be scripted? Not really. But my main premise is the crushing burden of needing to score every single time we have the ball MUST be removed from the O. It will have intangible effects on the entire program. [/QUOTE]
