[QUOTE="Jean-Baptiste Rochambeau, post: 35976, member: 1017"] Good post. Thank you. Why is Zenon in the doghouse, I thought it was Bostic . None of them block like they need to. Also, the success of the A-backs in our program is directly proportional to the performance of the quarterback. The drop off in A-back performance from 2012 to 2013 was directly attributable to Vad's poor play. The dive or midline read has to be correct in order to set up the toss or keep decision on the edge. When the dive fails, the edge will often be covered. Teams that can ignore the dive will have numbers up on the perimeter. Without a viable passing alternative the A-back play is going to be stuffed most of the time. Vad's hesitant play on the option made A-backs sitting ducks. Hopefully, improved qb play this year will give several A-backs more opportunities to shine. I think the starting backfield for the Wofford game will be Thomas, Laskey, Days and Perkins. After the first three games, anybody's guess. Glad you didn't list the freshmen---sure hope our older guys play well enough that those youngsters can be redshirted for the future. [/QUOTE]
